Winners: The Usos and Hardy Boyz

Yes, The Usos lost their titles last night, but this frees them up to go to Raw, which was always the best move for them at this time anyway. They needed a change of scenery, and Raw's tag team division desperately needs rebuilding. There's no one better to lead that effort than the best team in the company. The Usos also needed separation from the New Day.

As for the Hardy Boyz, they get a newfound relevance, which will make for new feuds, although one with Lars Sullivan wouldn't be welcome. There was no reason for him to be out there. Other feuds and matches like with The Bar or Aleister Black and Ricochet, should be a lot more intriguing.

Either way, both tag team divisions look like they will be in for improvement in the coming year, which will be nice to see.
