11 Things That Must Happen At WWE Hell In A Cell 2017

9. Put Down The Hot Potato

The SmackDown Live Tag Team Championships has passed hands between The New Day and The Usos a couple of times over the last months, and it has made for a surprisingly competitive environment. Treating titles like hot potatoes usually leads to the straps being downgraded, but this feud has seen two teams of equals try to stay one step ahead of the other. It has been WWE’s best in-ring beef of 2017.

If this is to be the feud-ending match (and it should be), The New Day must come out on top. The Usos have been a tag team rejuvenated in 2017, and will spend many more years in the upper echelons of the tag division. The New Day is where the money is however, and the division will surely be built around them heading into the winter.

What next for Kofi, Woods and E.? SmackDown Live’s tag team division isn’t exactly overflowing right now, but there are a number of teams bubbling under the surface. Gable & Benjamin, Breezango and The Hype Bros (unless they split) are around, and there is also the prospect of a reunited Harper and Rowan or a debuting The Authors of Pain. The time is right to move forward.
