The Usos have been a staple of the tag team division of WWE for almost a decade now. Whether a heel or face, the tag team has put up grand matches against the like of The New Day. However, a fellow tag team thinks The Usos are nothing without Roman Reigns.

The newest addition to the SmackDown roster Angel and Humberto Carrillo had some stinging words for the current WWE SmackDown tag team champions.

For weeks in and weeks out, Jimmy and Jay Uso have dominated the tag team division with their heel antics and have won against several opponents put against them.

However, Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo announced confidentially on the latest episode of WWE‘s Talking Smack, the real-life cousins said that The Usos are nothing if we remove Roman Reigns out of the equation.

“I think that means if we beat a champion, we can beat another champion, putting the legacy of our family on the top is our first goal and we’re gonna do whatever it takes to do it. And, if you do one thing and that’s taking Roman Reigns out of the way from The Usos, they are nothing for us,” added Angel. [h/t: Sportskeeda]

The tag team has proven many times that why they still hold the championship and why Vince McMahon still trusts the duo. This latest dig from Angel and Carrillo seems like a potential title match between the teams.

It will be nice to see the new pair lacing their boots against the veterans and irrespective of the match result, if Angel and Carillo put a decent performance then it could make them legitimate.
