WWE loves making history and WrestleMania Backlash was a night that they might refer to for a long time to come. The SmackDown Tag Team Championship match in the ThunderDome tonight meant far more than just winning a title.

Click here for our complete coverage of WWE WrestleMania Backlash.

Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler started their night by beating down Dominik Mysterio backstage. When time came to have their match, only Rey Mysterio came out to wrestle. Mr. 6-1-9 took an incredible beating before Dominik came to the ring.

The Mysterios took more punishment, and then they rallied. After Mysterio took Ziggler out with a sliding powerbomb to the barricade, Dominik hit a top rope splash on Roode for the win.

It also wasn’t lost on anyone that Rey Mysterio was dressed as Batman and Dominik’s attire seemed to resemble The Joker. That was a very nice touch, and could be foreshadowing as well.

How long do you think the Mysterios will hold the SmackDown Tag Team Titles? Sound off in the comments!

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
