In the end, everyone had a claim to the title of &#8220;number one contender.&#8221; #DIY almost won everything with Candice LeRae interfering on their behalf. Fortunately, Fenix and Andrade would bounce back.<\/p>\n<p>Because of Johnny Gargano&#8217;s errant Superkick on his partner, Andrade would clear the ring and hit Tommaso Ciampa with The Message, picking up the victory for his team. Next week, Andrade and Rey Fenix challenge The Wyatt Sicks for the WWE Tag Team Championship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><em><u><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a><em><i> for more on the WWE SmackDown, The Wyatt Sicks, Andrade, Rey Fenix and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
