The “Smackdown” World Cup will feature eight competitors, but none of them have been revealed at this time. In addition to the tournament kicking off, this week’s episode of Smackdown will feature The Usos vs. The New Day for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships and the all-time record for longest tag team title reign in WWE history.
