Tonight’s WWE SmackDown on FOX saw Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura pick up a non-title win over SmackDown Tag Team Champions The New Day in the opening match.
The non-title win would bring Cesaro and Nakamura one step closer to receiving a title shot from Big E and Kofi Kingston.
The match opened with Kofi and Big E hitting the ring and taking a knee while raising their fists in the air, apparently protesting injustice and showing solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
Stay tuned for updates on a possible title match between the two teams. Below are a few shots from the match:
