The Usos Defeat The Street Profits In Hard-Fought Match, Get Tag Title Bout Next Week
Jimmy Uso has been attempting to get his brother Jey into a tag team match ever since he came back to the blue brand. During this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, he finally succeeded, and the two shocked The Street Profits by returning to form and picking up an emphatic win.
DOWN SINCE!

In a tag team match between the two remarkable duos, the Usos came alive, finally teaming up together, rather than arguing due to their cousin Roman Reigns. Late in the contest , Jimmy blocked a Drill Bit attempt and landed a forceful superkick, but it wasn’t enough to down Ford. After Angelo Dawkins got into the ring, he hit Jimmy with a big spine buster, setting up Ford to climb up for his signature frog splash.
But just as Ford jumped off the top rope, Jey pulled his brother out of the way, so Ford came crashing down onto the mat. After he returned to his feet Jimmy quickly blasted Ford with another huge superkick and pinned him for the victory.

After the match, the two brothers talked up their impressive win in a backstage interview. The duo then demanded a shot at the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship, and official Adam Pearce made the bout official for next week. While Jimmy was ecstatic over the news, Jey looked a bit apprehensive about this development.
