WWE SmackDown Tag Title Match Ends In No Contest When War Raiders Interfere

The MFTs retained their Tag Team Championship on a technicality after the War Raiders attacked Bakusai in the title match during "WWE SmackDown."

Tama Tonga started the match off strong, isolating Kyoki on his half of the ring before tagging in his brother Talla Tonga. Talla continued to beat Kyoki down with overhand chops before tagging back to his brother. 

Tama chopped Kyoki to the chest but this time he called for more, seemingly unaffected by them all before rallying to a hurricanrana. He went to try and knock Talla off the apron, failing to do so, but as Talla tried to enter the ring he managed to kick the rope into his groin. Haku then got involved from ringside, striking Kyoki across the back of the leg with a cane while the referee was distracted. 

Kyoki went on to break a spell of dominance for the champions, creating space enough to tag Shinsuke Nakamura into the affair. Nakamura then rallied against Tama and knocked Talla from the apron, setting up for the Kinshasa on Tama. 

Tama saw it coming, ducking it and coming back with a cut-throat tackle. Nakamura backdropped Tama out from a double underhook, connecting with a knee strike to the back of Tama's head. 

Kyoki took out Talla as he sought to enter the ring, kicking Haku into him at ringside, while back in the ring Nakamura finally connected with the Kinshasa. He went for the cover but then the Raiders come into the ring to interfere, thus causing the disqualification and costing them the titles. This is the second time now that Bakusai has faced MFT and won via disqualification, with their maiden bout coming in September.
