WWE Raw Superstar Pitches New Mixed Tag Team Championship

Damian Priest, a prominent WWE star and member of the Judgment Day faction, recently pitched the idea for a new championship title in WWE—a Mixed Tag Team Championship. In a conversation on The Wrestling Classic podcast, Priest expressed excitement about the possibility of competing for titles alongside his Judgment Day teammate, Rhea Ripley. This proposed title would focus on teams of one male and one female competitor, adding diversity and inclusivity to WWE’s current championship lineup.

Priest and Ripley’s Strong Partnership in Judgment Day

As part of the Judgment Day faction, Priest and Ripley have developed a solid on-screen partnership and chemistry. Their alliance has led fans to view them as a potential powerhouse mixed-gender team. Priest emphasized the strength of their dynamic, saying, “If they allow Rhea to be my partner for the World Tag Team Titles, we could 100% win it. I can see us beating anybody.”

Priest’s idea taps into WWE’s growing interest in mixed-gender matches, previously highlighted by the Mixed Match Challenge, a special tournament aired on Facebook Live. However, the tournament didn’t offer a permanent championship title, and Priest believes the WWE could bring something new to its format with a dedicated mixed tag championship.

Fan Reaction to a Potential Mixed Tag Team Championship

Fans have shown strong support for the idea, with many excited by the prospect of Priest and Ripley leading a mixed tag team division. Social media platforms are buzzing with discussions on potential teams and dream matches. Fans see this championship as a refreshing addition that could diversify WWE’s tag team matches and showcase dynamic pairings across gender lines.

Could WWE Revive the Mixed Match Challenge Format?

Priest suggested that WWE could bring back the Mixed Match Challenge, previously won by teams like The Miz and Asuka. However, this time, he proposes adding stakes with a title belt. By reintroducing this format, WWE could expand its storytelling and appeal to a broader fan base with an innovative new championship.

Damian Priest’s pitch for a Mixed Tag Team Championship reflects his dedication to pushing WWE’s creative boundaries, and many are hopeful WWE will consider this addition to its roster of titles.
