New World Tag Team title number one contenders crowned on WWE Raw

JD McDonagh & Finn Balor are getting a title match.

Balor & McDonagh became the new number one contenders for the World Tag Team titles, defeating Authors of Pain, New Catch Republic, and The Creed Brothers. The finish had Carlito interfere in the match, giving Pete Dunne the backstabber before throwing him back in the ring. Balor then followed up with the coup de grace for the win.

Since being drafted to Raw, Carlito has been attempting to join The Judgment Day. Damian Priest, however, wants nothing to do with him due to his interference in the Puerto Rican Street Fight that took place at last year’s Backlash. Earlier on Raw, Carlito was shunned by Priest, who wanted nothing to do with him. However, he appeared to be warming up to him after Balor & McDonagh became the new number one contenders.

The current World Tag Team Champions are The Miz and R-Truth, who won the titles during the ladder match that took place at WrestleMania 40.
