Two matches set for SmackDown Live.

First, WWE announced that WWE Champion AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan will team up to face The Usos once again. The Usos defeated Bryan and Styles at SmackDown 1000 with a pair of superkicks on Bryan following miscommunication with Styles.

The two sides took their feud to social media in order to build the rematch.

Anyone on #SDLive…singles, tag teams, y’all already know.
Don’t be surprised. Don’t act new.
We’re still the only tag team.
The #TruTagTeam. #Welcome

Not going to take anything away from these boys. Great tag team, they know they have talent.

…but they also know why I’m the one holding the @WWE Championship. And will be for awhile. https://t.co/fGPL70oREY

Also set for Tuesday’s episode is a women’s bout between Naomi and Mandy Rose. The bout is being billed as the “first time ever” the two ladies meet in one-on-one competition. The women also took to social media to help build the match.

Uh-uh! The only thing you’ll be doing is going over the ropes. I’m happy to help you with that. — #WWEEvolution https://t.co/kbOnVz9gT9
