It can't get any better for the Smackdown Live Tag Team division.

WHAT A FREAKING AWESOME MATCH! Seriously The New Day and The Bar left it all in the ring on this week's episode of Smackdown Live, and for the sake of tag team wrestling, this was a God sent gift to legitimise the division once again. For more than twenty minutes fans witnessed beautiful counters, exhilarating finishers, and an electric pace that has been missing from WWE's TV main events so far this year. And even though The Bar should've been the team to face The Bludgeon Brothers at Summerslam, WWE's reluctance to do a heel vs heel tag team match is understandable.

But this match proves why Smackdown Live is whipping Raw in terms of sheer creativity and utilisation of its roster, as The Bar and The New Day felt like they were literally tearing each other apart for a chance they would never get again in their careers. The desperation, the willpower and the emotion these teams showed on this episode will never be forgotten, as their war felt real and when wrestlers make wrestling feel real you know they are doing their jobs.
