WrestleMania 40 is shaping up to be an exciting event, with numerous storylines unfolding in the lead-up to the two-night extravaganza. Tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown played a pivotal role in solidifying much of the card.
One of the most intriguing moments of the show occurred backstage, where Nick Aldis was seen discussing the status of the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship with SmackDown General Manager, Adam Pearce. Aldis hinted at an upcoming announcement regarding the tag titles, specifically tailored for WrestleMania 40.
Speculations suggest that the announcement could involve the division of the RAW and SmackDown Tag Team Championships. This would necessitate Damian Priest and Finn Balor relinquishing their SmackDown titles, while retaining their status as RAW tag champions.
Despite the unexpected twist for The Judgment Day, they will still hold onto championship gold. However, the duration of Balor and Priest’s title reign remains uncertain, especially with the possibility of Awesome Truth challenging them at WrestleMania 40.
On the other hand, the future of the SmackDown Tag Team Titles seems promising under Nick Aldis’ direction. He could opt for a tournament format, culminating in a showdown at The Show of Shows.
Alternatively, a multi-man Ladder Match presents an equally thrilling prospect. Regardless, the decision to have distinct tag team champions for each brand adds an exciting dimension to the upcoming WrestleMania spectacle.
