The Usos will defend the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship at WWE Elimination Chamber.
The Viking Raiders (Erik and Ivar) will challenge for the gold at the premium live event on February 19. They earned the opportunity by beating Los Lotharios, Cesaro and Mansoor, and Jinder Mahal & Shanky in a Fatal 4-Way match on the January 14 episode of WWE SmackDown.

The preview, courtesy of WWE’s official website, is as follows:
At WWE Elimination Chamber, The Viking Raiders will look to knock Jey & Jimmy Uso off the top of the mountain in a highly anticipated showdown for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.
After they barreled their way onto SmackDown as part of the 2021 WWE Draft, the explosive tandem of Erik & Ivar soon earned the right to challenge The Usos in a turbulent Fatal 4-Way Match several weeks ago on SmackDown. The former Raw Tag Team Champions represent a whole new kind of threat to The Bloodline as they boast a combination of immense size, power, agility and a rather unhinged sensibility.
Claiming the gold will be no easy task, however. Standing in their way will be the longest-reigning SmackDown Tag Team Champions in history. Although they may be outspoken and often employ questionable tactics, The Usos have proven time and again to indeed be The Ones.
Will the new challengers prove to be one and done? Or will The Raid be too much for the titleholders? Find out at WWE Elimination Chamber, Feb. 19 at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT, streaming live on Peacock in the United States and WWE Network everywhere else.
