Fatal 4-Way Tag Team Match Announced for WWE Money in the Bank 2016
The New Day will have an uphill battle to climb at WWE Money in the Bank if the members want to retain their WWE World Tag Team titles.
Stephanie McMahon and a returning Teddy Long announced on Monday Night Raw that Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, who have held the titles for 288 days, will defend the gold against the Vaudevillains, Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady, and Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows in a Fatal 4-Way tag team match on June 19 in Las Vegas.

The tag team division hasn't been a mess, but it's been a confusing picture since WWE Payback, when Enzo suffered a concussion against the Vaudevillains.
With no clear-cut winner of the No. 1 contender's tournament, The New Day were forced to defend the titles against Aiden English and Simon Gotch at WWE Extreme Rules on May 22. After The New Day won, Enzo returned to Raw the next night to re-form The Realest Guys in the Room heading into Money in the Bank.
Before reuniting with AJ Styles on the May 30 edition of Raw, Gallows and Anderson attacked The New Day during Kofi Kingston and Big E's match against Gotch and English. The following night on SmackDown, The Club members staked their claim for a shot at the tag team gold.
Now, all three teams are going to get a crack at The New Day in an attempt to end their nearly one-year reign.
The Money in the Bank card is shaping up to be one of the best WWE has produced this year, and this is bound to be another show-stealing matchup. The New Day can use a win to continue their run as the most popular tag team in the company, while Enzo and Cass will have a chance to finally taste victory and secure the tag team gold.
Gotch and English are turning into proper heels on the mic but aren't quite there in terms of popularity. Putting the belts on The Club would boost the momentum they've gathered over the last month as a ruthless and aggressive tag team.
If WWE can turn this into a ladder match, it might be the match of the night.
