Upon the confirmation of the bout, WWE shared the following preview on its official website:

The Street Profits want the smoke, and they will get just that from RK-Bro.

After prevailing over Rey & Dominik Mysterio in the finals of the prestigious RK-Bro-nament, Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford have earned the right to challenge Randy Orton & Riddle for the Raw Tag Team Championship on the first night of 2022. The Viper and The Original Bro defeated Otis and Chad Gable respectively in back-to-back singles matches on the same night the Profits won the tournament, so there is no telling which duo has more momentum heading into this blockbuster showdown for the titles.

So will it be ‘Tez and Dawks raising the Raw Tag Team Championship high, or will RK-Bro kick off the new year by retaining the gold?
