During Friday night’s episode of SmackDown, WWE announced two championship matches that will take place on next week’s show. First off, we will see Rey and Dominik Mysterio defend the SmackDown Tag-Team Championships against The Usos. Also, WWE Intercontinental Champion Apollo Crews will defend his title against Kevin Owens.
The Usos earned their title shot after they defeated the Street Profits and then Jimmy asked Adam Pearce to give them a match against the winner of the Mysterios’ match on SmackDown with the Dirty Dawgs. Pearce told the Usos the match would happen despite Jey expressing his concern about teaming up with Jimmy after Roman Reigns tried to drive a wedge between the two. Reigns was shown looking unhappy at the end of the show after the Usos confronted the Mysterios.
Commander Azeez has also been banned from ringside for the Intercontinental Championship match.
