This week on WWE SmackDown, Rey Mysterio faced Jimmy Uso in an entertaining match. The one-half of The Usos was pinned tonight after Dominik borrowed a page from the reigning tag team champions’ book. Rey Mysterio and Jimmy first engaged in a well-balanced encounter with their respective teammates present at ringside.
Rey Mysterio then dropkicked Jimmy Uso to set up the 619, but Jey Uso pulled his brother out of the ring just in time. The masked legend still took out both WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions with a creative dive over the top rope. He dragged Jimmy back inside the ring to set up another 619, but Jey took the blow instead.
Jimmy Uso tried to fight back into the match with a Samoan Drop, but Rey Mysterio hit with a beautiful counter and brought down his opponent for a Crucifix pinfall. Dominik slyly entered the ring and pressed both his legs against his father’s back to help reinforce the pin. Thus, he used The Usos’ trick against them to help Rey Mysterio pick up an essential win on WWE SmackDown.
Rey and Dominik Mysterio can use this victory to continue their title feud with The Usos until SummerSlam 2021. The two teams have been feuding for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Titles for the past couple of months and can deliver an exciting match at the upcoming pay-per-view. The storytelling has been excellent so far, and Dominik’s trick accounted for an incredible swerve.
