Following a few weeks of tension between the former WWE RAW Tag Team Champions, AJ Styles, and Omos, the duo finally disbanded the team. This week, Omos and Styles made an appearance on Miz TV, and a loss to Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio after which the split seemed evident.
During the appearance on Miz TV, AJ praised Omos and said he was ready to move on from what happened, and clean house in WWE by winning all of the titles. Miz said he heard otherwise from Omos as the big man was sick and tired of carrying AJ who has been holding him back.

The Mysterios then made their entrances for the tag team bout on WWE Raw. AJ blocked the top rope splash and went to tag Omos in, but Omos just ignored him. This allowed Mysterio to take advantage and roll up a stunned AJ up for the pin to win.
Things got physical between the two as AJ delivered several strikes on Omos. AJ then tried to fly in from the apron with a Phenomenal Forearm attempt, but Omos grabbed him in mid-air, and drove AJ into the mat, and stood tall over him to a loud mixed reaction from the crowd.
Omos then took the mic and warned AJ that the next time they will see each other in a match, against each other. This match was then made official for next week’s WWE Raw. Speaking of the show, a United States Championship has also been announced for the upcoming December 27 edition.

US Title match announced for next WWE Raw
Dolph Ziggler has become the new number-one contender to WWE United States Champion Damian Priest. This week’s WWE Raw saw Ziggler compete against Priest in a non-title Championship Contender bout, just two weeks after Priest retained over Robert Roode in a US Open Challenge match.
Robert Roode was present at ringside who attacked Priest outside the ring to cause the win via Count-Out to Ziggler. The Show-Off was thereby announced to challenge Priest for the mid-card title on WWE Raw, next week.
The show will also witness Finn Balor vs. Austin Theory in a rematch. This week, Balor defeated Theory via clean pinfall but Vince McMahon announced the rematch after Theory attacked Balor in a backstage segment. Also, Randy Orton will face Otis in a singles contest in a non-title bout.
