FREEZE! Keep those belts right where we can see them, WWE. Don't dare chip away at the lustre of Judgment Day by removing the Undisputed Tag straps from Finn Bálor and Damian Priest just so Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso can continue their sudden, unexpected pals act.

That pair shouldn't become tag champs.

Judgment Day's future honestly depends on the outcome of this match. Scrapping one of Raw's best acts for a temporary friendship would be questionable at best and downright thick at worst. Literally nobody will be missing out if Rhodes and Uso fail to wrestle away the gold on Saturday night, put it that way.

Could it happen? You bet it could. WWE has previous when it comes to getting all flirty with temp-tag partners and using that as a springboard to one-on-one feuds. It's a trope, and a tired one. Sometimes, it's forgivable, but not on this occasion.

JD must remain champions.
