Women’s Tag Team Titles Added to Saturday Night’s Main Event Card
IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley will put the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships on the line against Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez on Jan. 24 at the Centre Bell in Montreal, a high-profile addition to Saturday Night’s Main Event just one week before the Royal Rumble.
How the Title Match Was Set
The championship rematch was confirmed following a night of confrontation and a decisive triple‑threat tag match. SKY and Ripley opened the show celebrating their recent title win, only to be interrupted by three challenger teams: Liv Morgan & Roxanne Perez, Bayley & Lyra Valkyria, and the former champions Asuka & Kairi Sane. Morgan and Perez emerged victorious in the triple threat, pinning opponents to secure the Montreal title shot.
Card Context and Royal Rumble Implications
The Montreal tag title bout joins a stacked Saturday Night’s Main Event lineup that already includes a Fatal 4‑Way to determine Drew McIntyre’s Royal Rumble challenger on Jan. 31 in Saudi Arabia. With the Rumble looming, this tag match serves as a momentum test — especially for Morgan, for whom this will be her first premium live event appearance since returning from injury.
Betting Outlook and Key Angles for Punters
From a wagering perspective, SKY and Ripley enter as the logical favorites as the newly crowned champions, offering lower but safer returns. Morgan and Perez carry compelling narrative momentum: a recent big win and Morgan’s comeback status create underdog value. Punters weighing risk-reward should consider backing Morgan & Perez if higher odds are available, while conservative bettors may opt for SKY/Ripley to maintain continuity of the titles ahead of the Royal Rumble build.
What to Watch Leading Up to Montreal
Expect further card announcements across the coming week, and watch weekly programming for tag dynamics, potential interference, and any storyline shifts that could alter betting lines. The outcome in Montreal could influence tag division direction heading into the Royal Rumble period.
