Divas Tag Team Match Confirmed for WWE “Payback”

The second-ever WWE “Payback” pay-per-view takes place on May 17, live from the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, Maryland.

Confirmed for the card during the May 14 edition of “Thursday Night Smackdown” is a Divas tag team bout featuring the WWE Divas Champion.

Brie Bella and her sister, Divas Champion Nikki Bella, will take on the duo of Naomi and Tamina Snuka.

Naomi and Tamina are now technically family due to Naomi being married to Jonathan Fatu, better known to WWE fans as Jimmy Uso.

Tamina returned to WWE television on the May 4 episode of “Monday Night Raw,” aligning herself with Naomi and attacking the Bella twins.

She had been away from action for several months after undergoing ACL surgery on June 4 of last year.

This will be the second pay-per-view in WWE’s last three airings where the Divas Championship isn’t on the line. The Bella’s teamed at WrestleMania 31 in a losing effort against Paige and AJ Lee. Nikki then defended her gold successfully against Naomi at WWE “Extreme Rules.”

Editor’s Note

I’m surprised that we’re not getting another Nikki vs. Naomi title bout. I understand Tamina’s involvement, but I assumed she was strictly going to have a “Lady Diesel” bodyguard role where she’d rarely compete.
