In-Ring: The Usos, Shinsuke Nakamura, Riddle

WWE SmackDown kicks off with the new Unified WWE Tag Team champions The Usos. They welcome everyone to SmackDown and say before they celebrate, they need everyone to put their one’s in the sky and say thank you to the tribal chief, the needle mover, the head of the table, the Undisputed Universal champion, Roman Reigns.

Jey says he would like to thank Roman for allowing them to defeat RK-Bro on their own. Jey says off script, if you have been rocking with them since day one, yesterday marks 12 years in the WWE. And 12 years ago they walked down that ramp and never in a million years would he think they would still be standing in the ring in front of them. THat means for 12 years they cheered them, they booed them, you have seen their ups and downs. But that means for 12 years they watched them grow in front of them. And for 12 years all these plane rides, the miles, the time away from their family, Jey asks Jimmy if he knows who was there. They look at the fans and Jey says it was all of them.

He says the world is crazy these days. He loves coming here every week and being an entertainer in front of them. And from the bottom of their hearts, from his family, he would like to say thank you. The fans chant Usos.

Jimmy says for the past 12 years, they realised that they needed nobody. The Usos laugh and Jimmy says all he needed was his right hand man Jey Uso. And Jey says he needed his twin brother. They didn’t need the fans. Jimmy says they are the Unified Tag Team champions. The fans boo as Jey tells them not to boo them but to boo Randy Orton because he is not there tonight.

Jey says Riddle was crying like a little kid just like they made the kids cry last week. They say they are the one’s and celebrate in the ring.

Out comes Shinsuke Nakamura. He says his brother and himself challenge them for a match for the tag team championships. And his brother wanted to face them on their own. Jimmy asks where his partner is at because Rick Boogs is injured. Nakamura says here he is…

Out comes Riddle. Both men walk down to the ring. They get on the ring apron and all four men begin to fight. Riddle gets in the ring but The Usos throw him to the outside of the ring. Nakamura gets in the ring as Riddle climbs the top rope and hits them with the Flying Bro. Nakamura with a kick to Jimmy as he falls to the outside.
