4) Gable & Benjamin Had Their Tag Team Title Victory Taken Away Due To Instant Replay
The tag team title match was eventually won by Benjamin & Gable. WWE used instant replay to reverse the decision and the match was forced to be restarted.
Fans weren’t thrilled with WWE picking and choosing when instant replay applies to situations:
Sometimes I hate that they only ever pick and choose when to reverse a decision on a match like they don’t always have instant replay smh #SDLive

Since when has instant replay been a thing in WWE? Seriously? The #SDLive creative team continues to get worse and worse by the week.

5) The Usos Retained Their Titles After The Controversial Decision
After the match was restarted, it was won by the Usos. As a result, the Usos are still your Smackdown Tag Team Champions.
Benjamin & Gable certainly have a case for a rematch over the next few weeks. Maybe at the Rumble?

6) The Bludgeon Brothers Dominated Both The Ascension And Breezango
Smackdown Live featured a tag team match: Breezango vs the Bludgeon Brothers. This came after Breezango were squashed a few weeks ago at Clash of Champions.
The Bludgeon Brothers destroyed Breezango again and followed it up with taking out the Ascension who tried to make the save. Another dominating performance for the new tag team on Smackdown Live.
All will fall to the #BludgeonBrothers…#SDLive @LukeHarperWWE @ERICKROWAN pic.twitter.com/mZt8TzWLyB
