Primo & Epico Crowned New WWE Tag Team Champions At House Show

In a huge surprise, Primo & Epico won the WWE Tag Team Titles from holders Air Boom (Evan Bourne & Kofi Kingston) at Sunday night’s live event house show in Oakland, California.

You can see a video of their victory below;

Primo & Epico’s manager Rosa Mendes tweeted after the match;

“Guess who the new tag team Champions are!!??WE ARE!!! WE BEAT AIRBOOM in Oakland!! I will remember this day forever!”

There is also a video of Primo, Epico & Rosa Mendes’s celebration after the match;

Ever since Evan Bourne’s suspension for violating the wellness policy there has been talk of taking the belts away from Air Boom and breaking up the team to give Kingston a singles push but during the 30 day Bourne suspension and 30 days beyond they kept the titles on them. But some officials in the WWE have been desperate to give Primo & Epico the titles instead (seemingly because there’s only them and The Uso’s that are legitimate tag teams in the weakest division in the company’s history) and it was reported recently that Triple H was very skeptical of what Evan Bourne brings to the table. His saviour was Stephanie McMahon who was said to be a fan but in any event they lost the titles last night.

The big question is why did the WWE feel it was so urgent for Air Boom to lose the titles on a house show the night before RAW where a switch could have been made there on television?

Is Bourne done with the WWE? If so, we should find out soon….
