#5 The Usos
Fans had been clamouring for the Usos to turn heel for some time. When they finally did, it worked out perfectly. Now Rikishi’s twin sons are once again one of the hottest acts in the tag team division, and that doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon.
The Samoan gangster gimmick these two have been embracing for the last few months suits them to a tee. They’re overly aggressive, they’re angry, and they’re fun to watch. That last part is something that the colourful, kid-friendly Usos had lost toward the end of their babyface run.
They’re the only ones to appear on this list thus far who are involved in a championship storyline. That alone should prove their value to the company, but their versatility and overall talent should speak for itself.
The Usos are one of the best tag teams on the roster thanks to their chemistry in the ring and revitalised mic work since turning heel. The SmackDown tag team division also has questionable depth, so they’re anchoring it for the time being.
Although they’re not even the most successful Superstars in their own family, they’re still supremely talented and are two of the best active second-generation stars in WWE.
