WWE Backlash: 6 Last minute rumours you need to know

4: Heath Slater and Rhyno could actually leave as the SmackDown Tag-Team Champions

Against all odds

After The Usos turned heel and took out American Alpha following their semi-final match in the tag-team tournament last week, most fans and critics assumed that we’d see the newly heel Usos win the SmackDown Tag-Team Championships at Backlash.

While they are still probably the favourites to beat the Hype Bros plus Rhyno and Slater and win the tournament, the latest word on the WWE grapevine suggests that Rhyno and Heath Slater have more than their fair chance of leaving SmackDown as the new tag champions.

WWE have their history of pushing odd couple tag-teams from RVD and Kane to Team Hell No, and Slater and Rhyno could be the latest off ball team to get a push.
