Spoiler On Formation Of New Tag Team At WWE SmackDown Taping

After weeks of teases, a new tag team was officially formed during the June 30 taping of Friday Night SmackDown from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

For the show which will air on July 4, Charlotte Flair and Nick Aldis were part of a backstage segment when the SmackDown General Manager proposed Flair team with Alexa Bliss to go after the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. After needing some convincing, Charlotte eventually gave in and accepted the proposal.

This led to a three-way tag team match to determine one of the teams in the Women's Tag Team Title match at Evolution. After several minutes, Flair & Bliss defeated Piper Niven & Alba Fyre and Michin & B-Fab to advance to WWE Evolution.

A new tag team of Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair has been teased since Bliss made her return in early May. Both have previously held the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles, with Bliss a three-time tag team champion with Nikki Cross and Asuka. Flair, meanwhile, is a one-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion with Asuka.

The Women's Tag Team Title match at WWE Evolution will be Roxanne Perez & Raquel Rodriguez defending the belts against one team each from Raw, SmackDown, and NXT. This came after Perez officially replaced Liv Morgan as one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.

A top WWE star and a WWE Hall of Famer also made their returns during the SmackDown taping.
