WWE sent out the following:
WWE Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match
The WWE Tag Team Titles will be up for grabs when champions Primo & Epico defend against both The Usos and the new tandem of Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd in a WWE Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match, which will stream live on WWE.com and YouTube this Sunday at 6:30 ET/3:30 PT.
The high-stakes bout is a major test for the champion cousins, though not unfamiliar territory for Primo. At The 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania in 2009, Primo & Carlito defeated The Miz & John Morrison to unify the WWE and World Tag Team Championships. Just as he did that night, Primo will be stepping onto The Grandest Stage of Them All, with the WWE Universe’s eyes on him and the titles up for grabs. Only this time, he’ll have Epico by his side and the wild card of Rosa Mendes in his corner.
For Jimmy & Jey Uso, the bout is a major opportunity to live up to their storied legacy. Sons of the famous Anoa’i wrestling family, The Usos descended from a long line of former World Tag Team Champions, including Rikishi, Rocky Johnson and Yokozuna — the legendary Superstar the brothers will be inducting into the WWE Hall of Fame the evening before this match. With various members of their extended family cheering them on and memories of Yokozuna in their minds, Jimmy & Jey Uso realize that this is a match they cannot lose.
The team of Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd doesn’t have the familial ties or legacy of The Usos or Primo & Epico. In fact, they just formed a team this week. But that won’t stop them from putting it all on the line in this WWE Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match. Respected rivals, the underrated talents forged a partnership following a grueling singles match on “WWE Superstars.” (WATCH) Agreeing that they’d have a better chance at making an impact in WWE if they worked together, both Kidd and Gabriel see this match as a way for them to put their names on the map.
These three young, hungry teams will be the first Superstars to enter the ring in Miami’s Sun Life Stadium for WrestleMania XXVIII and the WWE Universe can watch it for free on WWE.com and YouTube Sunday night.
