No surprises here.

The Usos have been Raw Tag Champs for over 300 days, and SmackDown Tag Champs for well over 600 days. They've (rightly) dominated the doubles scene in WWE, but Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn are worthy replacements for Jimmy and Jey heading through the rest of 2023.

KO and Sami received one of the biggest pops in modern WWE history when they hugged it out in front of fans. They're no stranger to big reactions - both have produced some of the hardest-hitting moments as rivals and as best friends. In short, they're absolute gold together. Note the key word there!

Gold is exactly what Owens and Zayn will have after WrestleMania 39. Then, WWE can either decide to break the Raw and SmackDown belts up over the summer, or bring them together as standard WWE Tag-Team belts again. Choices, choices, choices.

The only thing that isn't a choice? Read on to find out.
