In case you didn’t know...
The feud between The New Day and The Usos began back in May when The New Day made their first appearance on SmackDown Live and laid down the gauntlet to the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
The two teams competed for the tag team titles at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view and ended with The New Day winning via countout while The Usos retained the championships.
The heart of the matter
Wale will be appearing on the show to moderate the 4th of July Rap Battle between both teams.
The news of this rap-off has led to quite the twitter war between the members of The New Day and The Usos as both teams have talked smack about the other and have even given a sample of what’s to come next week when they go head to head with rhymes.

Since you rep the penitentiary I figured you would relate bars to jail, but like old Fritos your bars are corny and stale https://t.co/uZSPmYUS7M

What’s next?
The promos between The New Day and The Usos have been heavily praised, so many fans will be expecting an entertaining showdown between two of the companies most popular tag teams.
Tune in next week to see Wale moderate the war of words between The Usos and The New Day.
Author’s take
WWE really want the 4th of July episode of SmackDown to be successful with the number of matches and confrontations expected to go down next Tuesday.
This rap-off between The New Day and The Usos coupled with The Independence Day Battle Royal, and the return of John Cena have the potential to make next week’s episode a great show.
