The Usos are certainly cementing their legacies as the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.

Last week on Monday Night RAW, the brothers fought WWE Champion Big E and his challenger at Crown Jewel, Drew McIntyre. Despite winning the bout by count-out, the members of The Bloodline held their own in this contest.

On the latest episode of Supersized SmackDown, the duo successfully overcame Street Profits in a Street Fight. Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford gave it all, with the latter almost sealing the deal with the Frog Splash.

In the end, the SmackDown Tag Team Champions showed their class as Jimmy and Jey superkicked Dawkins and then hit two consecutive splashes to emerge victorious.

The rivalry between The Usos and Street Profits has now been put to rest as the latter moves to RAW following Crown Jewel 2021.

That said, Jimmy and Jey can now look for new challenges on the blue brand. Let's take a look at five new challengers for the Usos on SmackDown.

#5 Hit Row vs The Usos

Hit Row is one of the most impressive factions on the NXT with members Isaiah "Swerve" Scott, Ashante "Thee" Adonis, Top Dolla, and B-Fab.

On the May 18 episode of NXT this year, this faction had their first tag team match when the duo of Adonis and Top Dolla defeated the team of Ariya Daivari and Tony Nese. After an impressive run in the brand, Hit Row has now moved to SmackDown in the recent WWE Draft.

The up-and-coming stable will try to make their mark on the blue brand. Nothing can be better than going after the SmackDown Tag Team Champions. The contest pinning these two teams will surely be an exciting one.

#4 The Viking Raiders vs. The Usos

A contest pinning the Viking Raiders and the Usos will be full of physicality.

Erik and Ivar have been very impressive on Monday Night RAW, dominating the team of Jinder Mahal and Veer. The former RAW Tag Team Champions have now moved to SmackDown as per the Draft.

The duo would surely want to get their hands on the tag team gold. If the Viking Raiders do challenge the Usos, the latter will certainly have their hands full.

#3 Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza

Real-life cousins Humberto Carillo and Angel Garza have taken Monday Night RAW by storm since they came together as a team last month. The duo has won over the team of Mustafa Ali and Mansoor on the red brand.

Now on SmackDown, this young team will surely want to challenge the Usos for the Tag Team titles to gain prominence. The contest pinning these teams will be full of high-flying maneuvers making it worth every penny for the WWE Universe.

#2 The New Day vs. The Usos

The New Day and The Usos have had some epic battles in the past. They last collided on the September 20 episode of Monday Night RAW. The Usos and their cousin Roman Reigns won the bout after the latter pinned Xavier Woods with a spear.

That said, Woods and Kingston are now on SmackDown following the Draft. The duo will go after Jimmy and Jey for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships after Crown Jewel.

#1 The Bar (Reunited)

With Sheamus and Cesaro both on SmackDown after the Draft, one could surely expect The Bar to reunite. None of these superstars are in any storyline.

Hence, they can reform their team and challenge The Usos for the Tag Titles. Both teams have had memorable clashes in the past. Their last bout saw them in a Champion vs. Champion match at Survivor Series 2017.

Back then, The Usos emerged victorious as SmackDown reigned supreme. The Bar, if reunited, would try to settle the score and become a two-time SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
