WWE had scheduled a unification match between these teams for WrestleMania Backlash, but changed it to a six-man tag team match and added Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre into the fold weeks before the show.\u00a0The report indicates that WWE simply does not want to unify those championships.<\/p>\n<p>Roman Reigns and The Usos defeated Drew McIntyre and RK-Bro at WrestleMania Backlash. This week on Monday Night Raw, RK-Bro addressed the loss, but said that they still wanted to become both the Raw Tag Team Champions and the Smackdown Tag Team Champions. On the show, RK-Bro successfully defended their titles against The Street Profits.<\/p>\n<p>Both The Usos and RK-Bro have been tag team champions in WWE for quite some time. The Usos are multiple time holders of tag team gold in WWE. RK-Bro is in the midst of their second run as tag champs. The first won the titles together at Summerslam in 2021.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2022\/05\/09\/cage-match-announced-for-next-weeks-monday-night-raw\/\">Cage match announced for next week\u2019s Monday Night Raw<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-90796639\"><div id=\"pwtor-2069786739\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>WWE is no longer planning on unifying the Raw and Smackdown Tag Team Championships.
