Brawling Brutes become #1 contenders for tag team titles

The Brawling Brutes became the number one contenders for the undisputed WWE Tag Team titles last night on Smackdown after they defeated Hit Row, The New Day, and Imperium in a fatal four-way match.

Butch and Ridge Holland, along with Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, replaced Alpha Academy and Los Lotharios who were in the original match a few weeks ago on Monday Night Raw but that match was interrupted by Braun Strowman.

The nearly 20-minute main event ended when Imperium hit the Imperial Bomb on Kofi Kingston but Ridge Holland made a blind tag and pinned Kingston himself.

The Usos vs The Brawling Brutes will now be taking place on next week’s Smackdown, a show which also features Roman Reigns live in person.
