It wouldn’t be a WrestleMania-equivalent pay-per-view (PPV) without a pre-show, so Super ShowDown will have a Kickoff which airs on all WWE’s internet and streaming outlets at 1PM Eastern on Fri., June 7. In addition to a (Peter Rosenberg-free) panel and interviews hyping the main show, the Kickoff will have at least one match. It was announced this afternoon that match will pit The Usos against The Revival.

The two teams have been beefing for a while, from Jimmy & Jey clowning the former Raw Tag champs with shower shaving videos & “Ucey Hot” in their jocks to the teams current role supporting a couple guys who will wrestle on the main card, Shane McMahon and Roman Reigns. With Shane’s help, Dash Wilder & Scott Dawson picked up a win over the Big Dog & his cousins on the June 3 Raw.
So now we get this match. Which should rule, even if the story blows. And the current Raw Tag champs are probably gonna be two of the 50 guys in a battle royal.
