It's A Way Out: Speculation Over How WWE Could Solve Tag Team Titles Dilemma

It’s a family thing. Tag team wrestling has been undergoing a bit of a resurgence in WWE as of late, with more teams being formed and a more competitive division overall. While this has been going on, the Usos have reigned on high as one of the most dominant teams in WWE history. However, a change in plans might require someone else in the family to step in for a change.

At the Royal Rumble, the Bloodline attacked Sami Zayn but Jey Uso refused to get involved, resulting in Uso not appearing this week on SmackDown. The Usos have a Tag Team Title defense scheduled against Braun Strowman and Ricochet next week on SmackDown, though there is doubt over whether Jey will team with his brother Jimmy. During a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer speculated (rather than reported) that WWE could have the Usos’ brother Solo Sikoa team with Jimmy in Jey’s place. Jimmy and Sikoa teamed together this week in a dark match after SmackDown. Jey is still scheduled for the title match.

There is some talent involved here. Check out all three of them:

Opinion: WWE doesn’t have many options to pick from for this situation and Sikoa’s involvement is about the most logical option that they have. I would hope that a year plus title reign does not end due to the Freebird Rule, but given that Jey’s issue is a storyline one (save for at Elimination Chamber due to immigration issues), there is a good chance that the Usos will be able to drop the titles as they should.
