Tag Team title street fight set for WWE SmackDown
The Usos and The New Day are once again set to face off for the SmackDown Tag Team titles.
Jimmy & Jey Uso will defend their SmackDown Tag Team titles against New Day’s Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston in a street fight on tonight’s episode of SmackDown. Woods & Kingston are getting another shot at The Usos’ titles after unsuccessfully challenging for them at Day 1 last Saturday.
Sami Zayn vs. Rick Boogs has also been announced for tonight’s SmackDown. Zayn is currently the number one contender to Shinsuke Nakamura’s Intercontinental title.
Zayn became number one contender by winning a 12-man gauntlet match on the Christmas Eve episode of SmackDown.
WWE hasn’t revealed when Zayn will be getting his title shot.
Tonight’s SmackDown is taking place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. With Universal Champion Roman Reigns cleared to return from COVID-19, he’ll have a face-to-face confrontation with WWE Champion Brock Lesnar tonight.
