On Monday Night RAW, the Women’s Tag Team Champions the Boss ‘N’ Hug Connection announced they’ll be appearing on SmackDown on Tuesday. They seemingly called out the IIconics before Natalya and WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix came to the ring. Phoenix announced she’s coming out of retirement before she challenged the champions to a match at WrestleMania.
Tensions between the two teams escalated into a brawl.

Phoenix has been retired since 2012 but she’s returned to WWE as a commentator and, recently, helped Natalya fend off Nia Jax and Tamina.

The brawl turned into a match between Sasha Banks and Natalya. Nia Jax interrupted the bout and insulted Beth Phoenix, as she said the Hall of Famer is jealous of Jax. Then, Tamina attacked Phoenix and Banks. Once again, Jax and Tamina left RAW standing tall.
