The Usos

The Usos are one of the greatest tag teams in WWE history. With a decade long career, both Jimmy and Jey Uso have been a force in the tag team division. The Usos have been off television for a few months now.

While there is no officially stated reason why, fans are led to believe their absence is related to Jimmy Uso’s DUI arrest (reported by WrestlingInc, per a local ABC affiliate), as the team’s hiatus began shortly afterwards.

In their absence from television, fans have a larger appreciation for what makes The Usos a special tag team. A team like The Viking Raiders would benefit from a match with Jimmy and Jey Uso. Both tag teams can work a fast paced match, and slow it down to draw fans in to an emotional story.

The Usos have such cache with fans that a victory over The Viking Raiders would do less for them than The Viking Raiders can gain by defeating The Usos.

An open challenge pitting Jimmy and Jey vs. Erik and Ivar would excite a fanbase looking for reasons to get behind The Viking Raiders. Neither team have faced each other in a match of any consequence. A chance for The Uso’s to help enhance The Viking Raiders characters is pivotal for their development.

The Usos vs. The Viking Raiders can set a tremendous pace for the TLC PPV and a win would do wonders for Erik and Ivar.
