• Possible Spoiler Regarding Tonight’s Match With SummerSlam 2018 Implications On SmackDown Live
The SmackDown Tag Team Title tournament finals will take place tonight on SmackDown Live between The Bar and The New Day.
The Bludgeon Brothers have been struggling as champions as of late, with the team lacking virtually any momentum behind them since winning the titles. What was a great build to them winning the belts throughout the fall and winter has turned into mostly pretty average television since they became champions. It’s a great example of a team that’s much better chasing than defending.
According to the betting odds, The New Day are the favorites to win tonight’s match with odds of 4/6, while The Bar are 11/10.
This would mean that The Bludgeon Brothers vs. The New Day is highly expected for SummerSlam 2018.
