WWE Superstar Raquel Rodriguez agrees with many fans that there is something of a ‘curse’ on the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships.
The titles, which were introduced in 2019, have often seen those who hold the gold succumb to injuries, including both of Rodriguez’s partners: Aliyah & Liv Morgan.
Speaking to “The Dallas Morning News” Rodriguez spoke about the ‘curse’ and how it has affected the image of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. She said,
“I do think there is a little bit of a curse. Liv [Morgan] and I, from the very beginning when we started tagging together, we told each other that this was something we wanted to build up. We wanted to make the women’s tag team titles something as important. They should be on the same level, on the same pedestal as the World Women’s Championship, as any championship really on the WWE roster, even the men’s ones … But because of this curse, … it’s just really been affecting team after team after team.
“So I’m kind of relieved that right now I’m not in that picture at the moment, even though I miss my buddy Liv. But at the same time, I feel for Chelsea [Green], I feel for Piper [Niven] and I just hope that they’re able to be the champions that I know they want to be representing those titles.”
Earlier this year, Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green won the titles, but Sonya suffered a torn ACL shortly after, ending her first title reign in her eight years with WWE.
Rodriguez will be one of five women competing for the WWE Women’s World Championship at Crown Jewel 2023 on November 4.
