Ranking the SmackDown Live Era Tag Team Champions from worst to best

#2 The New Day

Big E and Xavier Woods recently lost the SmackDown tag team championships to the Revival

The longest reigning Tag Team Champions in WWE history, The New Day, feuded with The Usos in 2017 and set the entire SmackDown Tag Team Division on fire. The trio of Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods have won the titles four times, with their latest reign lasting from July 14th, 2019 to September 15th, 2019. They picked up their first SmackDown Tag Team Championships at Battleground 2017, where they knocked out The Usos in a superb match.

Apart from The Usos, The New Day feuded with The Bar, The Bludgeon Brothers, and The Revival during their sojourn at the top. While Kingston had turned his focus to the singles division during his WWE Championship reign, Woods and Big E extended the New Day’s domination in the division. Now that Kingston’s reign is over, the former WWE Champion may join The New Day in the tag team department once again.

#1 The Usos

One of the greatest rivalries in tag team wrestling

As mentioned previously, the team of Jimmy and Jey Uso played a substantial role in the prosperity of the SmackDown Live Tag Team Division. The Samoan twins are 4-time SmackDown Tag Team Champions and had been a part of the brand since the 2016 Draft.

The Usos portrayed face characters back then, but they quickly turned heel and developed into one of the top tier teams in the business. The Usos defended their titles against every tag team available and likewise under every stipulation possible. Their association with the Blue brand ended in 2019 when WWE moved the twins to RAW, however, The Usos were the lifeblood of the SmackDown Live Tag Team Division.
