The SmackDown Tag Team Title match is set for the Royal Rumble as the Bar will defend against Shane McMahon and The Miz.
The match was announced on Tuesday's episode of SmackDown after Sheamus and Cesaro defeated the Usos. Miz came out to congratulate the Bar for picking up the win and formally issue the challenge. The Bar thought about it for roughly two seconds before Sheamus laid out Miz with a Brouge Kick and accepted the bout.
