Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose won the WWE Raw tag team championships a couple of weeks ago. It happened on the emotional night where Roman Reigns announced his leukemia was back from remission. As a reason, he had to vacate the WWE Universal Championship and go into hiatus from WWE programming for an indefinite time span.
So the tag team championship win on WWE Raw came as a tribute to the Big Dog of the WWE. But a shocking heel turn was waiting afterward. Dean Ambrose decided to turn into a villainous character on a night we expected the least to do so. He beat the hell out of Seth Rollins just after the tag team championship win.

Last week on WWE Raw, Seth Rollins demanded an explanation from Dean Ambrose. But he stayed silent without uttering any word that left his former partner fuming over the situation. The fun part is that these two still are the tag team champions on the show. But with such a bad blood between these two, they will definitely not defend these belts.
So the question remains what happens next with the WWE Raw tag team championships. Wrestling Observer Newsletter gave an update on the situation. They hinted that WWE officials are planning to let both these former Shield brethren vacate these championships on WWE Raw. For now, they will focus on building up a long-lasted rivalry.
Plus, the source also indicated how they intend to determine new tag team champions on the show. The GM might announce a new tournament to select the winners. The officials are intending to revamp this division for now. This tournament might serve as a huge booster to give momentums to the tag teams. The debut of Lucha House Party on WWE Raw happened to eye the same purpose.
Plus, Matt Hardy returned on the scene in a house show in Madrid. He gathered all the tag teams on WWE Raw to build resistance against Authors of Pain. This indicates the former champions of this division, Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt might return on tonight’s episode of the show. It happens live at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England.

At this point, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler deserve a tag team championship rematch. They were the ones to lose it to Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. But the Authors of Pain seems the favorite to win the gold going by their momentums. They are on a mission to destroy everything on their path ever since forming a bond with former 205 Live GM, Drake Maverick.
