Losers: Gallows and Anderson

youtube-cover

Though this was expected, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson losing to a cobbled together tag team of guys who were just feuding with each other only cements their low status.

And if Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev were going to be on the show, why put the United States Championship on R-Truth, who wasn't?

It's just these little things that often make WWE booking so weirdly bizarre.

If Nakamura and Rusev keep together as a tag team, there's a decent chance they take the SmackDown tag team titles off The Miz and Shane McMahon before WrestleMania, but it will still feel like a cobbled together team of two singles stars, much like the current Raw tag team champions.

Gallows and Anderson should be moved to Raw during the Superstar Shakeup after WrestleMania, although there's no guarantee that their fortunes will change. It would still be better for them, though.
