More is always more.

As if there hasn't been enough examples this year alone, WWE is still the company that super-serves, for better and worse in an era where so much content (half of it their own) is so readily available.

This tag team title match is an example of the nicest problem the company currently have. The feud between The Usos and The New Day was one of the very best to take place in 2017, but definitely required a rest after Jimmy and Jey conclusively took Xavier and Big E down at October's Hell In A Cell. Since then, Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin looked certain to step into new roles as Number One Contenders until the organisation elected to throw the best of the rest in there with them.

The most enjoyable doubled act on SmackDown Live! outside of Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, Rusev and Aiden English have built something out of nothing. This is not the first time the 'Bulgarian Brute' has shone as part of a gruesome twosome, and their time will come either in this division or with a move back towards the US Title for Ru-Ru. This will not be their night.

In conclusion, and upon review of 2017 as a whole, it's best to learn from the past to predict the future. Ergo:

- Prediction A: Match Of The Night.

- Prediction B: Usos to win.
