WWE World Tag Team Championship: Judgment Day (Finn Balor and JD McDonagh) vs. The War Raiders (Erik and Ivar)

World Tag Team Champions Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are set to defend their titles against the War Raiders in a highly anticipated matchup on RAW this week. This match was made official by General Manager Adam Pearce after Balor attacked Damian Priest and GUNTHER, leading to Priest’s inclusion in a triple-threat Heavyweight title match. Balor and McDonagh will be looking to retain their tag titles as they head into the final stretch of 2024, so we’ll have to see if they will walk out as the champions when all is said and done.
