Zayn and Neville will likely be staples of Raw's upcoming cruiserweight division, while the Dudley Boyz have been teasing dissension for several weeks.

WWE released the following announcing the match:

Associates dating back to their days on the independent circuit, The Underdog from the Underground and The Man That Gravity Forgot have forged a thrilling alliance from time to time, both in WWE and NXT, despite proving themselves primarily in singles competition. With kindred daredevil styles inside the ring, Zayn & Neville not only pose a dangerous threat to the best of teams, they also embody the energizing spirit of WWE’s New Era.

Yet, can their makeshift alliance, exciting though it is, make a dent against the unparalleled experience of 10-time Tag Team Champions Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley? The legendary brawlers form Dudleyville boast a distinct size and strength advantage over their opponents, and are likely eager to reassert themselvs as a dominant force in the Tag Team division at the expense of Zayn & Neville.

WWE's Summerslam Kickoff show starts at 5 PM EST on Sunday, and you can watch it here at Fightful.com
