Commercial for Legends House.

The Big Show returns to Smackdown this week.

Renee Young interviews the Usos prior to their match. She discusses the response to them winning the titles. They say it hasn’t sunk in yet, and they are on cloud nine. Kids, when you work hard and achieve your goal, it feels great. Everyone’s excited right? Well, accept the Outlaws. What’s next for them? We’re going to WrestleMania!

The Outlaws now make their way out. They are dressed in street clothes, and they call Renee Tanya again and mock the crowd. They have a feeling of awe, not due to new tag champions, but because they are in the ring with the luckiest boys in the world. They have to postpone their rematch due to an injury to Road Dogg. They are not 100%, so when they are, those titles will come back home with them.

Brad Maddox appears and says he checked with doctors and Dogg is legit injured. When he is cleared, they will get their rematch. Since they have promised a tag title match, that is what they will get. Their opponents are Los Matadores.

To the corner, tag to Jey, and an elbow in the corner on Diego, and a cover for 2. Off the ropes, reversal, Diego charges and is sent to the floor. Suicide dive connects for Jey. Fernando then flies off the top onto Jey, and then Jimmy with a dive onto both Matadores…

~commercial time~

Superfly splash ands that is all.

The Outlaws try to mess with Torito, who gets fired up and leaps onto Gunn (who does a totally awesome wacky sell job) and then gets a RANA. He rolls away from them, they chase into the ring and the Matadores and Torito hit a wacky triple team move on him and celebrate. Tough week for the Outlaws.

End scene.
