Update On Why WWE Is Pushing Tamina

As seen on Friday's WWE SmackDown, Tamina and Natalya defeated Nia Jax and Shayna Bayszler to become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.

The reason for Tamina winning the gold according to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio is because of the reaction she received from the audience at WrestleMania 37 last month.

"Tamina’s push came because the fans started chanting her name at WrestleMania, the one night, or the two nights that you actually have fans, and they [WWE] went with it. That was one of the stories at WrestleMania[…]the crowd got behind her and the decision was made [to push her]."
 
Tamina has been with WWE for 11 years, and this is her first major gold in that time.
