The Usos vs. Breezango set for WWE Backlash

Another title match has been added to the card for SmackDown’s Backlash pay-per-view.

Tyler Breeze & Fandango will get a tag title shot as they face The Usos at the PPV. That was announced on Tuesday night’s SmackDown, with Breezango winning a Beat the Clock challenge to become the new number one contenders.

Other teams involved were The Ascension, American Alpha, and The Colons. American Alpha beat The Colons in 5:17 before Breezango went over The Ascension in 2:41.

The Usos vs. Breezango is the third title match set for Backlash. Randy Orton will defend his WWE Championship against Jinder Mahal on the show, and AJ Styles will challenge for the United States title. Backlash is scheduled for May 21st in Chicago.

There was also an angle on this week’s SmackDown that concerned the brand’s June PPV. A video was shown where Rusev said that he wouldn’t come to SmackDown unless he got a championship match at Money in the Bank. Rusev underwent shoulder surgery in March but could be back in time for that show.
