The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) won the WWE Women's Tag Team titles on RAW after beating Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss. This was the third title win for the duo as a unit in WWE.

It wasn't a clean win for Asuka and Kairi, though, as Nia Jax and Lash Legend ran interference. However, it was still a win for them by the end of the night. In this listicle, we shall discuss three reasons why WWE Chief Content Officer, Triple H, booked the Kabuki Warriors as the new Tag Team Champions on RAW.

#3. The title needed to change hands

The first and foremost reason why WWE probably booked the win for the Kabuki Warriors on RAW was to have the title change hands before Survivor Series: WarGames. Alexa and Charlotte aren't going to defend the titles at Survivor Series as they are going to be part of the women's WarGames match. They had been champions for the past three months, and without any big feuds, it appeared that the company could take the titles off their shoulders.

Moreover, there wouldn't have been a better moment for the title change because the company can now book Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss as singles superstars. After Survivor Series, Alexa could be involved in a storyline with the Wyatt Sicks, while Charlotte can be booked in a feud with Jade Cargill. For these storylines, the duo needed to drop the title, and therefore, it was done tonight on RAW.

#2. To push the Kabuki Warriors as top heels on WWE RAW

Asuka and Kairi Sane's heel turn sparked a lot of excitement among fans. Even though they have been heels in the past, this stint has come after a gap of nearly six years.

WWE probably booked them as the tag team champions to elevate them as top heel superstars. This win would further embolden their current heel run, just like it elevated Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.

#1. Charlotte Flair's and Alexa Bliss' Tag Team Championship reign was far from convincing

Another reason why WWE got Asuka and Kairi Sane to win could be that the union of Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss as Tag Team Champions wasn't a convincing one. The company brought them together after WrestleMania 41, getting them to beat Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez at SummerSlam.

However, their title reign wasn't one of the greatest, and Alexa and Charlotte hardly had any big matches post SummerSlam. Many fans wanted Alexa Bliss to work alongside The Wyatt Sicks, and weren't satisfied with her being a tag team champion. Charlotte Flair also wasn't received well as a tag team champion since she is a 14-time Women's Champion, and fans expect her to compete on the main event scene.

This could be another reason why the Kabuki Warriors were booked as winners against the duo. It remains to be seen how the company directs their run as the tag team champions.
