WWE News: Daniel Bryan & Rowan Become New Tag Team Champions on Smackdown

In a surprise altercation, WWE crowned new Smackdown tag team champions in a returning superstar. None other than former WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan made comeback on his show to capture another title around his waist. Originally Shane McMahon wanted to crown the team of Daniel Bryan and Rowan as new tag champs just after their return. However, The Usos showed up to interrupt them and challenged them to a match.

So Shane McMahon announced that Daniel Bryan-Rowan and The Usos will take place over Smackdown tag team titles. Usos were in full control and set up their opponents for stereo splashes. But Bryan countered pushing Jimmy off the turnbuckle. The Usos still managed to keep Rowan away with a suicidal dive. But Daniel Bryan hit the YES Kick on Jimmy to which Rowan followed up with an Iron Claw slam for the pinfall win. After that, Shane McMahon crowned Daniel Bryan and Rowan with tag team championships.

Prior to this, the injury of The Hardy Boyz created some big-time vacant spot over on Smackdown Live. Only three regular teams were available from the division in the form of The Heavy Machinery, The B-Team, and Rusev-Shinsuke Nakamura. This is not well enough for the roster and hence WWE added three more impromptu teams of Shane McMahon-Elias, Finn Balor-Ali, and Kofi Kingston-Xavier Woods.

After that, they announced of Shane McMahon announcing new tag team champions on the show,

“SmackDown LIVE was thrown for a loop last week when, due to Jeff Hardy sustaining a knee injury at the hands of Lars Sullivan, The Hardy Boyz had to relinquish the SmackDown Tag Team Titles. With the state of both the blue brand’s tag team division and the titles in question, Shane McMahon will arrive on SmackDown LIVE this Tuesday to crown new SmackDown Tag Team Champions.”

Now Shane McMahon and Elias have formed quite a heel team on Smackdown ever since Superstar Shakeup passed by. Since Shane himself is an authority figure, there was a chance to misuse his power and crown themselves as the new tag champs. However, that was not the case as we have seen on the show. Rather Daniel Bryan and Rowan returned to surprise the world and pick up the vacant belts.
