The race to determine the next challengers to WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day began on the April 11 edition of Raw, with the start of the No. 1 Contenders’ Tag Team Tournament, sponsored by Booty-O’s. When the dust settled, it was two of WWE’s newest tandems — The Vaudevillains and Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady — that made it all the way to the final.
Featuring eight teams, the tournament was made official by Shane McMahon, just one of the many bold decisions made by Shane during his second week in charge of WWE’s flagship program. First-round tournament bouts then continued on SmackDown, before the semifinals took place on the April 18 edition of Raw.
