This week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Liv featured 3 title matches, and even though AJ Stlyes managed to retain his United States Championship against Tye Dillinger, The Usos weren’t as lucky when they defended the SmackDown Tag Team Titles against The New Day.

The Usos defended the belts in a Sin City Street Fight, and it was Big E and Kofi Kingston who stepped up to challenge for the titles. The New Day vs. Usos rivalry has been intense so far, but both teams took things to a whole new level this week on SmackDown Live.
The Sin City Street Fight was intense from bell to bell, and both teams pulled out all the stops. The end came when The Usos had Big E down on the mat, and they both went to the top rope. Kofi Kingston knocked one of The Usos off the top turnbuckle and he fell through a table to the outside, then Big E and Kofi capitalized by hitting the Midnight Hour to get the pin and win the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.
After the match Xavier Woods came down to the ring to celebrate with the team.
The match was action packed, and definitely a strong contender for best match in this rivalry so far, so if you haven’t seen it yet, it’s definitely worth checking out.
