WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title Match Added To WWE SummerSlam

The WWE SmackDown Tag Team Titles will be on the line at WWE SummerSlam.

The Usos defeated the Mysterios to captures the titles at WWE Money in the Bank.

From WWE:

The family warfare rages on at SummerSlam when The Usos defend their SmackDown Tag Team Championship against Rey & Dominik Mysterio.

There is no shortage of animosity between these two teams, dating back to when The Usos won the titles from the Mysterios at WWE Money in the Bank. Since then, a battle of one-upmanship has unfolded on SmackDown, starting when Jey Uso gave the assist to his brother, Jimmy, in a victory over Dominik.

The Mysterios bounced back in a big way the following week, as Dominik used the very same trick to provide an assist of his own to his dad as a means for Rey to earn a singles victory against Jimmy.

As Rey continues to try and show his son the path to true superstardom in WWE, they will have a chance to shine once again as SmackDown’s brightest tag team. But can they get it done against the seven-time Tag Team Champions?

Don’t miss SummerSlam on Saturday, Aug. 21, streaming live at 8 ET/5 PT exclusively on Peacock in the U.S. and on WWE Network everywhere else.
