Trish Stratus & Lita, affectionately known as 'Team Bestie' have their eyes on the WWE Women's Tag Titles and breaking the 'curse' that often befalls champions.
The pair of WWE Hall of Famers were at Monopoly Events' 'For the Love of Wrestling' convention that took place this month. During a Q&A with the fans in Manchester, England, the pair were asked about winning the tag titles, which Lita was all for.
"People like to talk about this imaginary curse of the [women's] tag titles, but I think that if Trish and I were tag champs, that somehow the curse would magically disappear."
Stratus was similarly enthusiastic at the notion of challenging for the titles, warning the Kabuki Warriors "You're not ready for Team Bestie."

While Lita described the 'curse' as imaginary, it's hard to ignore the setbacks that various champions have faced. The titles were stripped from Sasha Banks & Naomi after they walked out of WWE in May 2022. The titles would be left vacant for months before being won by Aliyah & Raquel Rodriguez. That pair would lose the titles mere weeks later.
In May 2023, Rodriguez and Liv Morgan were stripped of the titles when Morgan suffered a shoulder injury. Less than two months later, Sonya Deville would suffer an ACL tear as champion which has kept WWE's first openly lesbian Superstar out ever since.
This curse has shown no sign of slowing down, as we've learned in recent days. Four-time and current WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Asuka is dealing with an injury and was recently pulled from live events. It's unclear how extensive the injury is, but with WrestleMania 40 growing closer, this could not come at a worse time for the Empress of Tomorrow.
