Brie Bella, Paige Beat Jax, Legend to Retain Women's Tag Titles at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event

Mike ChiariMay 23, 2026

Brie Bella and Paige beat The Irresistible Forces at Saturday Night's Main Event to retain the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships.

The ending sequence began after Nia Jax caught Paige after a jump off the turnbuckle. Jax attempted to put Paige back on the top rope, but Paige squirmed out of it and rolled up her foe for a pin attempt. While the referee wasn't looking, Bella used her foot to give Paige more force on the pin to get the three-count.

Just over one month after dropping the women's tag team titles at WrestleMania 42, Nia Jax and Lash Legend finally got their opportunity to recapture the gold at SNME.

At WrestleMania, Jax and Legend had to defend against three other teams in a Fatal 4-Way, and one of them benefited from a late change.

The Bella Twins were originally supposed to be part of the match, but with Nikki Bella unable to compete due to an ankle injury, she was replaced by Paige, who made her surprise return to WWE on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Brie and Paige were victorious, but The Irresistible Forces had a strong case for an eventual rematch since neither Jax nor Legend were pinned or submitted.

On the May 1 episode of SmackDown, The Irresistible Forces did indeed get their rematch, and Bella and Paige were victorious thanks to Brie pinning Jax with a roll-up.

Since it wasn't necessarily an emphatic finish, Jax and Legend remained in the title hunt, and it was announced that they would get another rematch at Saturday Night's Main Event.

First, Brie and Paige needed to defend their titles against The Judgment Day's Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez on this week's episode of Raw, and they were successful in doing so.

Bella and Paige were also saved by Bayley and Lyra Valkyria from a post-match attack at the hands of The Judgement Day, ensuring they would be fit for the SNME title defense.

Since forming their team at WrestleMania, Brie and Paige have been on a roll, and that continued on Saturday night, as they retained their titles yet again.
