List of IWE Women's Tag Team Champions
From Iwe
The IWE Women's Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling world tag team championship contested in IWE on the Raw and SmackDown brand. Unveiled on the December 24, 2018 episode of Raw.
The championship is generally contested in professional wrestling matches, in which participants execute scripted finishes rather than contend in direct competition. The inaugural championship team was Bayley and Sasha Banks, who at the time went by the team name of The Boss 'n' Hug Connection.

(prior to her third reign, her ring name changed to Nikki A.S.H.), Banks, Bliss, and Asuka share the record with three reigns. As a team, The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) have the longest reign at 171 or 172 days (180 days as recognized by IWE due to tape delay), while the team of Bliss and Asuka have the shortest reign at 5 days (4 days as recognized by IWE).
