TLC Match Confirmed for WWE SummerSlam After Wild SmackDown Brawl

The July 25 episode of WWE SmackDown ended in total chaos—and it led directly to a massive announcement for SummerSlam. What began as a WWE Tag Team Championship match between The Wyatt Sicks and the team of Andrade and Fenix quickly unraveled into a full-scale brawl involving multiple tag teams.

Before a winner could be decided, the Motor City Machine Guns, Street Profits, and the duo of Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano all hit the ring. The brawl took over the closing segment of the show, sending the Cleveland crowd into a frenzy.

SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis came out to restore order and dropped the major announcement: the tag team titles will now be defended in a TLC match at SummerSlam. The reaction inside the arena was immediate, with fans erupting at the reveal.

TLC matches—featuring tables, ladders, and chairs—are known for their unpredictability and physicality. WWE has a long history of unforgettable moments in this match format, and adding it to SummerSlam instantly raises the stakes for every team involved.

The Wyatt Sicks will now have to defend their titles in a match where the odds are literally stacked against them, and with multiple teams gunning for the gold, there’s no telling who will walk out on top.
