WWE SummerSlam 2017: 5 possible endings to the SD Tag Team Championship Match between The New Day and The Usos 

We determine five finishes for this huge match

Bear in mind that the SmackDown Tag Team Championships were not defended at Wrestlemania. It is the first big pay-per-view event since then, and the landscape of SmackDown Live is no longer the same as before. The New Day are the tag team champions, and they have been challenged by the evil, villainous Usos.

Considering that these two teams had the match of the night at Battleground and possibly even at Money in the Bank, there's absolutely no question that they will tear the house down, leaving fans asking for more and more. The question remains though, how will this match end?

We have thought of 5 finishes for this match. Each of them is a distinct possibility and we are certain one of them is bound to happen. Let's explore the potential finishes in the following slides.


#5 Breezango helps The New Day win the match

Will their mystery lead them to The Usos?

The investigation is still ongoing for Breezango. Somebody abducted Fandango, and it certainly wasn't aliens, as Fandango would have us believe, from the entertaining vignettes. Who was it then?

Let's take you on a journey back in time. Stone Cold Steve Austin was run over by persons unknown during The Attitude Era. It turned out to be Rikishi who had run him over. He did it for The Rock, as he famously said. Now, his sons are in WWE and they call themselves The Usos, who are incidentally part of this match.

While this is the most far fetched possibility, we can imagine Breezango discovering that it was The Usos who had been attacking them and in doing so, cost them their big match. This could lead to a program between Breezango and The Usos over the coming months on SmackDown Live.

In this scenario, New Day wins and retains the coveted tag team championship.

#4 Big E turns on The New Day, helping The Usos win

Will Big E go the Big Cass route?
Will Big E go the Big Cass route?

Many believe that The New Day, as entertaining and as popular as they are, have run their course in the company, and there's very little for them to achieve as a unit.

Kofi Kingston is certain to go in the Hall of Fame some day, and with his size and athleticism, we can see Xavier Woods becoming a viable mid card superstar and possibly even Cruiserweight Champion if he decides to step into the land of purple ropes. That leaves us with Big E, a man with serious potential as a singles star.

Could SummerSlam 2017 be the stage where Big E decides to turn on his team, and cost them the match on the big stage against The Usos. His reason could be that he was held back because of The New Day sticking together as a stable. He could maintain that he was meant for bigger and better things.

This would give The New Day an interesting internal conflict to resolve, whereas The Usos could possibly defend their championships against Breezango or the newly formed unit of Dillinger and Sami Zayn.

#3 The Usos win via a disqualification

Could this match end in a screwy finish?
Could this match end in a screwy finish?

If you look at the tag team landscape of SmackDown Live, there's literally no heavyweights to carry a program on their back except for The Usos and New Day. WWE may just want their program to continue for a really long time, maybe even over months.

The easy way to book this match would be to have one of the members of The New Day interfere in this match and cost The Usos the titles via disqualification so that they win the match but not the championships.

Remember that while The Usos are the heels, The New Day have a numbers advantage, even though they are the good guys in this case. If it meant retaining the championship, using the numbers game to their advantage is something you would expect from The New Day.

#2 The Usos win clean

This is a definite possibility!
This is certainly a definite possibility!

From the impression that we've got from their encounters thus far, WWE has portrayed the heels, The Usos as a tag team that's at par with the babyfaces, The New Day. Every match could have gone either way, in each of their encounters.

Like we mentioned, there aren't too many contenders for the titles held by The New Day right now. We believe that The Usos could just win the big match and thereby, prolong their program against The New Day.

This is a feud that can go for weeks, months or half a year because of the chemistry that these teams share. Provided that creative can keep this feud fresh and interesting, that is.

#1 The New Day wins clean

<p>
Don't you dare be sour - New Day will win the match, so feel their power!

In all likelihood, this is the most probable scenario at SummerSlam. The New Day will comprehensively defeat The Usos on the grand stage, and move on to their next opponents following the big event.

It does not matter which combination of participants steps into the ring, we know that the match will indeed be quite fantastic. This possibility seems the most likely as we believe that the SmackDown Live tag team division will be built around The New Day.
