WWE Smackdown kicks off with a Goldberg video package hyping up his return.

The Usos make their way down to the ring for their 8 man tag team match. They get in the ring and talk about how last week they couldn’t be on Smackdown. But they kept getting mentioned by Miz and John Morrison and they were disrespected. But this week, The Usos are here and they are teaming with The New Day as Big E’s voice is heard through the PA system.

Out come Big E and Kofi to the ring. The Usos joke about how they hope The New Day kept their tag team titles warm for them. The New Day say The Usos are one of the best of all time and are six time tag team champions. And that is one less tag team title reign than The New Day. Big E says that makes them better than The Usos.
