The Revival are your new WWE Raw Tag Team Champions, having regained the belts on last nigt's show.

Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson were placed in a three-way tag bout with The Usos and defending champions Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder, who won the straps at WrestleMania 35 but hadn't been seen on main roster television since 6 May. It was a solid, fast-moving encounter, and a memorable finish saw The Revival emerge victorious.

Jey Uso had done all the heavy lifting, destroying almost every other participant with a flurry of Superkicks. This led to him going up to the top rope and hitting the splash, but Dawson hit him with a blind tag, shot into the ring, and stole the pinfall while Jey was being restrained by Wilder.

The Revival are now two-time Raw Tag Team Champions, having previously lost the straps to Ryder and Hawkins at 'Mania. Here's hoping this latest reign goes better than the first, and that the duo are somehow able to transcend the mess that is WWE's tag scene in 2019, bringing prestige back to the big red straps in the process.

Fingers crossed...
