Shortly after, she was paired with Aliyah as a team and they continued to grow as babyfaces for weeks henceforth developing some chemistry. The dynamic duo came up as the breakout team in the recently concluded Women’s Tag-Team Championship tournament reaching the finals where they defeated the heavy favourites, Damage CTRL.

Raquel Rodriguez wants a Women’s Intercontinental Championship to get introduced
As we know, WWE started a women’s revolution few years back inorder to put more emphasis upon their female talent who previously went under the scanner for many years. Superstars like Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair produced one of the best rivalries in company’s history going through historic first ever Hell in a Cell and 30-min IronMan matches for women.

The powerhouse of Smackdown spoke highly about the possibility mentioning something like including Intercontinental and American North American titles for them. She called introduction of these a major leap in all-round development of women and she really looks forward towards the idea.
“A hundred percent. I think that would be something so great for the women’s division, especially because we have so much diversity in the women’s division. I think having an Intercontinental Championship, having a North American Championship for the women would be something, you know, a huge leap forward for the women’s division and wrestling in general.
