Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn Set To Face Damian Priest & Finn Balor Next Week On Raw For Undisputed TAG Team Titles
This week on Monday Night RAW, WWE made an announcement. They revealed that Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens would be challenging The Judgment Day for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship next week.
The Judgment Day had tried to recruit “Main Event” Jey Uso on this week’s “WWE Raw,” but it seems their efforts fell short. If Damian Priest and Finn Balor don’t perform at their best next week, they might lose their championship titles.
Sami and KO became champions at WrestleMania 39 when they defeated The Usos in the main event of Night 1. However, they lost the titles to Damian Priest and Finn Balor at the Payback Premium Live Event. Now, they have a chance to win back the championship, as they are set for a rematch on September 25.
For the past few weeks, the former champions have been involved in matches against The Judgment Day, facing different combinations of opponents. They even came to the aid of Cody Rhodes on “Raw” after he won against Dominik Mysterio, preventing an attack on him. Zayn and Kevin Owens evened the odds, causing the villains to retreat.
During his main event match with Drew McIntyre, Uso received support from Balor, Priest, and Mysterio. He responded to their encouragement by delivering a superkick to each of them. However, when he turned around, McIntyre hit him with a decisive Claymore, leading to his defeat.
Later, WWE announced that on next week’s RAW, Damian Priest and Finn Balor would defend their tag titles against Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship.
Now that the former champions are focused on regaining their tag team gold from Priest and Balor, it will be interesting to see what role, if any, Uso plays in the match. Owens didn’t seem convinced about trusting Jey when Zayn and Rhodes tried to vouch for him on this week’s “Raw.” This could add an interesting twist to the story in next week’s title match.
