Raw Tag Team Championship Match
The Hardys (c) vs. The Revival vs. Enzo Amore and Big Cass

It’s mostly been an easy road for Matt and Jeff Hardy since returning to the WWE. They haven’t dropped a match, even in singles action. This led to Cesaro and Sheamus turning heel, setting up a future encounter at the Extreme Rules PPV on Sunday, Jun. 4.

By the summer, it’s possible Cesaro and Sheamus are out of the title picture. They had a six-week run from December 2016 to January 2017, so that may be all these two get for a little while. This allows a team like The Revival to get into the mix.

We have yet to see Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder return to action since the latter’s jaw injury, but they should be back before SummerSlam. When they do come back, being inserted into the Raw Tag Team Championship picture wouldn’t be surprising, as they stand the best chance of knocking off the Hardys in Brooklyn.

Enzo Amore and Big Cass would be added in to get more bodies onto the card. WWE hasn’t pulled the trigger on them as a tag team, and at this point, it doesn’t seem like this will happen anytime soon. They’ll play a role, however, as a steady No. 2 babyface team on Raw.
