In that same conversation, fans frequently utter the names of the reigning WWE World Tag Team Champions Jimmy and Jey Uso as well. Based on recent comments from Matt Jackson, it seems that The Usos' nomination is indeed warranted.
"Years and years and years ago, this was probably in 2011. I believe we got to go backstage at a SmackDown when we actually did this. It was SmackDown, prior to the show, so all the boys were out there watching.
We got to do a sort of a tryout match in front of the boys and we got to wrestle The Usos," Matt said on " Being The Elite . " "Even way back then, those guys were awesome. They're really good, next level.
They were calling great stuff on the fly. I remember afterward thinking like, 'Whoa, those guys are good. I would really like to have a proper match with them one day.
