A few weeks back, Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin won a Fatal 4-Way to become the number one contenders to the SmackDown tag team titles currently held by The Usos. On this week’s episode of SmackDown Live, the duo revealed they would be challenging for the straps on next week’s edition of the show.
They also made Benjamin into a great reaction meme:

The idea here is to tease the possibility that The Usos will lose and Gable and Benjamin will take their place at Survivor Series, where they are currently scheduled to wrestle the Raw tag team champions, Dean Amborse and Seth Rollins.
We’ll find out next week.
