Reason for World Tag Team title match change on WWE Raw

There’s a reason the advertised World Tag Team title match didn’t happen.
The Usos were originally set to defend the titles on Monday’s Raw in Boston. However, during the week it was changed to a non-title match. According to Bryan Alvarez, the belief is that it was changed so the champions could appear with the titles this Wednesday during MLB Opening Day festivities on Netflix. It was announced earlier on Monday that the twins would be in attendance when the Yankees play the San Francisco Giants.
Their scheduled match with Logan Paul & Austin Theory of The Vision instead turned into a non-title match that ended in a DQ when Jey struck Austin Theory with Logan Paul’s brass knuckles right in front of the referee. Later in the show, Paul Heyman demanded and got a championship match for next week’s Raw at Madison Square Garden, except this time the two teams will face off in a street fight.
Jimmy & Jey were also involved in the main event, with Jey and CM Punk squaring off in a war of words. Roman Reigns came out and got his cousins to leave, but not before spearing Punk and powerbombing him through a table. However, the last images of Raw saw Punk smiling, telling officials he isn’t the one that needs help.
