10 New Directions For WWE After SummerSlam 2016

10. Jeri-KO For Tag Team Gold

Having kicked off SummerSlam with a big win over hometown heroes Enzo & Cass, the future looks bright for Jeri-KO.

So bright, in fact, that it wouldn’t at all be surprising to see these two in line for a title shot in the not too distant future. They can certainly claim to be ahead of Enzo & Cass in the pecking order at least. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson may have something to say about it, but given the way Big E ploughed through them on Sunday evening, even if they’re afforded a rematch for the belt I can’t see them overcoming the New Day.

Most importantly, though, Jeri-KO would be fully deserving of such a spot. They’ve already demonstrated great chemistry on the mic together and at SummerSlam they proved to be a pretty mean team inside the ring as well. Plus, just imagine the promos between Jeri-KO and the New Day if a title challenge did result from this.

What initially looked like something of a throwaway pairing could easily evolve into one of the better tag teams in recent years, and the first step in that evolution could be a shot at the tag team titles.
