The announcements followed the incidents happened during the #1 contenders match for the tag team titles at WrestleMania XXX between The Shield (Rollins and Ambrose), 3MB, Rybaxel and The Real Americans. The match ended in a no contest as a huge brawl broke out, with all heel tag teams teaming up to take down The Shield.
This brawl also saw the involvement of the Director of Operations, Kane, who attacked Reigns at ringside.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
As what it seems right now, at WrestleMania XXX, it will be:
The Usos vs. The Real Americans vs. Rybaxel (WWE Tag Team Championship match),
3MB will participate in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, and
The Shield are going to face Kane and The New Age Outlaws.
One can expect the addition of The Rhodes Brothers as the fourth team in the tag team championship match to even the odds of face and heel teams in the match.
And let’s just hope that the match between a present day tag team (The Shield) and a team of stars from the Attitude Era (Kane and The Outlaws) doesn’t become one-sided.
