The action continued later on in the night when the SmackDown Live Tag Team Champions, The Usos, defended their tag team belts against the former champions American Alpha. Chad Gordan and Jason Jordan pushed The Usos to the limit as they tried to get their SmackDown Tag Team Titles back.
Jordan and Gable pulled out all the stops in the match and there were quite a few near falls. American Alpha have had a tough time getting the fans interested in their matches since they made the jump to the main roster, but the Boston crowd was fully invested in the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title bout.
The action spilled from the inside of the ring to the outside, and drama was one thing that this championship match didn’t lack at all.
In the end it was The Usos that got the win via a splash from the top rope to retain their titles. But after the match The Shining Stars debuted and they assaulted American Alpha.
The Shining Stars made a big debut by taking out the former Tag Team Champions and the crowd chanted “DELETE” as they made their attack.
