New WWE SmackDown Brand Titles Revealed Tonight (Photos, Video)

Tonight’s WWE Smackdown Live opened with Smackdown Commissioner Shane McMahon and General Manager Daniel Bryan, alongside the entire women’s and tag team division. They unveiled the brand new title belts – the “Smackdown Women’s Championship” and “Smackdown Tag Team Championship” – which are blue-tinted takeoffs on the already established championships.

The Women’s Championship will be decided in the first-ever women’s six-pack challenge at Backlash, featuring Nikki Bella, Becky Lynch, Carmella, Alexa Bliss, Natalya and Naomi.

There will be a tag team tournament to crown the Smackdown Tag Team Champions. As the segment continued, Heath Slater emerged from the audience and demanded a chance to compete for the tag titles. Shane and Daniel told Heath that if he finds a partner, he can compete – but he won’t be given a Smackdown contract unless he wins the tournament.

Below are photos and video of the new titles:
