Nobody could've predicted just a few months ago that Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso would become Undisputed Tag-Team Champions. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were riding high in that spot, then they put Judgment Day duo Finn Bálor and Damian Priest over. Oh, how things change quickly in WWE.

Cody and Jey aren't forecast to enjoy a long run with the belts. This is a short-term story for both, and perhaps a dual attempt to tide Rhodes over for the time being whilst showcasing how Uso has thrived post-Bloodline. Of course, that aforementioned question of loyalty towards Jimmy will pop up rather soon.

That's surely going to be used as a springboard towards more Cody beef with Roman Reigns. Creative would be daft not to use this opportunity and gauge interest in a WrestleMania rematch between those guys. In the interim, Cody and Jey can have a few hot tag matches on TV.

It's vital WWE leaps on this chance to see if people want more Rhodes vs. Reigns though.
