The Brawling Brutes became the number one contenders for the undisputed WWE Tag Team titles last night on Smackdown after they defeated Hit Row, The New Day, and Imperium in a fatal four-way match.

Butch and Ridge Holland, along with Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, replaced Alpha Academy and Los Lotharios who were in the original match a few weeks ago on Monday Night Raw but that match was interrupted by Braun Strowman.

The nearly 20-minute main event ended when Imperium hit the Imperial Bomb on Kofi Kingston but Ridge Holland made a blind tag and pinned Kingston himself.

The Usos vs The Brawling Brutes will now be taking place on next week's Smackdown, a show which also features Roman Reigns live in person.
