9) Finally Some Direction For The Tag Teams Of The Blue Brand
Smackdown featured a tag team match between the Usos and Luke Gallows/ Karl Anderson. This was also to determine the number one contenders for the Smackdown Tag Team Titles.
This was a treat since it has felt like the tag team division has taken a major backseat since Wrestlemania. We haven’t seen any real storyline development. Glad to see them start to build the division back up.
Oh so #sdlive still does have a tag team division????
