WWE confirms WrestleMania opponents for SmackDown Tag Team Champions

The latest episode of WWE SmackDown confirmed the next title contenders for The Usos. The reigning SmackDown Tag Team Champions are set to put their titles on the line against Shinsuke Nakamura and Rick Boogs at WrestleMania 38.

Two weeks ago, we saw The Usos unexpectedly attack Nakamura and Boogs on SmackDown. This led to their confrontation on the latest episode, which ended with both teams agreeing to a title match provided Boogs can beat Jey Uso in a singles match.

The budding star ended up beating Jey to secure a title shot for himself and the King of Strong Style at WrestleMania. WWE recently confirmed that this SmackDown Tag Team Championship match will take place on Saturday, i.e., the first night of WrestleMania 38.

This effectively means that The Usos will not be on the card on the same night that Roman Reigns will face Brock Lesnar in the title unification match at the Show of Shows. However, they could still make an appearance and help their Tribal Chief in his big match, something that has been a common occurrence in Reigns' historic title reign.

However, given that the Universal Champion is facing Brock Lesnar, it wouldn't be surprising to see him take on the challenge by himself. Meanwhile, The Usos have limited time to build up their rivalry with their new challengers, so they'll need to focus on their own match.

It will be exciting to see how the creative team intensifies these feuds ahead of WrestleMania 38.

WWE confirms two title matches for WrestleMania Saturday (Night 1)

Apart from the SmackDown Tag Team Championships, two other titles will also be on the line at WrestleMania Saturday. WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch will put her gold on the line against long-term rival Bianca Belair on the same night.

Royal Rumble winner Ronda Rousey will also challenge Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women's Championship on the first night of WrestleMania 38.

So far, two other matches have been booked on night one. Drew McIntyre will lock horns with Happy Corbin in a singles match, hoping to end their long-running feud. Additionally, former tag team champions Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik will compete against The Miz and newfound celebrity friend Logan Paul.
