The Usos didn’t even appear on the show this week, but it wasn’t a huge deal since their match got a lot of the spotlight in the segment with Daniel Bryan addressing Benjamin and Gable’s concerns.

Next week the teams will mix it up a little bit with Jimmy or Jey taking on Benjamin or Gable. It’s standard WWE booking but they have strayed from that again recently so they are probably due for a match like this.

If not a singles match, both teams may find themselves in two-on-two matches with other teams, but it feels like there’s so much parity in the SmackDown tag division right now that they probably don’t want to sacrifice a team, even in a competitive match.

I understand that sounds a little silly with how the Bludgeon Brothers have been destroying everybody, but even Breezango ended up getting a win over Rusev and English this week. The only team that looks unbeatable right now is Harper and Rowan, and who knows if anything will ever actually pan out with them. It seems like there’s no future there, somehow.

As great as the SD Tag Division is, the booking is shaky, so it’s tough to foresee what they’re going to do, but if it keeps going the way it has, The New Day and The Usos will end up being the only two teams anybody cares about and it’ll be back to square one.
