Should Team Hell No! stick together?

[cult_of_icecream_bar]

Team Hell No! has been the most intresting and strong tag team in the WWE in the last four or five years.Yes,they've been brought up as dysfunctional but they are better than any other tag team on the roster.When was the last time the tag team champions main evented RAW?Tag team divison needs them more than they need it.If the tag team divison needs to get back to the condition like it was a decade ago,Team Hell No! can be the guys to do so.But there's been a lot of talk about splitting them up.I don't think it should happen in a year or so.What do you think about it?

You know I'm being nostalgic on this one but I really think they should. It's just the old "wish they would have a good tag division" dream. A long term tag team would be beneficial to Kane I think, he's a little older and had almost every singles fued you can think of except the very newer guys. And unless Danial Bryan is going to be WWE/World champion then I don't think there's any reason being at or near the top of a strong tag team division for about a year would hurt his career. It would be a nice investment in the division but I doubt it'll happen.

I think it would be good for the division, good for Kain, but not good for Daniel Brain to be in a tag team for that long. My guess is before or right after Wrestlemania they will split them up.

For the short term yes, but if I were in charge the end game of team Hell No would be a one on one match at WrestleMania. I would keep the team as champs heading into the Rumble. I wouldn't give them a title match but rather have both men compete in the Rumble. They would enter around entrants 8-15 and be the guys who dominate the middle of the match and provide the bridge for the last 10-15 minutes of the Rumble. They would dominate, eliminating many superstars while arguing with one another. Eventually they would go after each other which would lead to their demise as they would be eliminated shortly thereafter. After the Rumble we would see more distention between the two leading to a title match at Elimination Chamber which they would lose. After losing there rematch shortly thereafter on either Raw or Smackdown, they finally go after one another which would set up there match at Mania.

For the sake of the tag division, yes. I seem to be the only one to have noticed that the tag division outside of Hell No, if such a thing exists, is shit. Prime Time Players, Car Stereo... The Usos, I guess? The best they get is 'alright'. 'Alright' as in "About as good as any of the other uninspiring tag teams we've had over the last five years". Hell No are interesting, they have a rapport with one another, the crowd are invested in them. Hell No are the cornerstone; you pull them out and everything around them crashing down.

But if, like me, you don't really give a fuck about the tag division, then splitting the two up wouldn't be too catastrophic to your world view. Like we're not all hoping for a Daniel Bryan face run after this is all said and done! You are. Don't lie.

Right now, Team Hell No is the center of the tag team division in the WWE. The WWE has been slowly building its tag team division up over the course of the year but really put a ton of effort into it once they put the titles on Kane & Bryan. While the tag team division has come a long way over the past 3 months, it still needs Kane & Bryan as the center in my opinion. There are a pretty good number of solid teams in the tag team division, which is a vast improvement in and of itself, but Team Hell No is that team with a truly special something. At least, they're the team that's really been given the spotlight to display it.

This could've been a disaster all around both in terms of an angle and a team. However, Bryan & Kane have both thrived in their current roles and the overall angle of Team Hell No has been one of the most consistently entertaining of 2012. Aside from the boon to tag team wrestling in WWE, Team Hell No has also been good for Bryan & Kane individually.

Kane is now in his mid 40s and is probably in the last real stretch of his career. He looks great and can still deliver inside the ring but it's only a matter of time before the wear & tear of the road catches up to him. I've always thought of Kane as one of the most underrated guys overall in WWE. With his mic work over the past couple of years, I think Kane has shown that he's ultimately more than a less dominant version of The Undertaker. Team Hell No could be one of the last major runs of Kane's career.

As for Daniel Bryan, his time as part of Team Hell No has only further shown that he's one of the most versatile wrestlers on the WWE roster. The past 12 months have been monumental for Bryan's career. He's gone from being a generally generic babyface to one of the most valuable assets in WWE. While Bryan has been funny in his current character, the WWE hasn't allowed the comedy to get in the way of the fact that Bryan is a very talented wrestler.

I say keep Team Hell No around for a while longer. WWE has a good thing going with them and, in my eyes, they're nowhere close to being stale.

I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed and look forward to every match/segment that Team Hell No is a part of. Ever since there rivalry this past Spring/Summer, Daniel Bryan and Kane have been entertaining as hell (get it LOL). And, YES! YES! YES!, they are the current cornerstone of the tag team division in the WWE as of late and should be the basic model of what a tag team should be. Though the split will be inevitable, I would like to see the two meet one on one at Wrestlemania with the Tag Team title on the line so the winner can finally claim, "I AM THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!!!" They could play this like the Superbowl winners...Imagine the merchandising the winner could pull from this?! Again, that's just my "fun" scenario.
On the flip side of this coin, if they do split, the division will have a crater of a hole to fill so the next team would have to be on par with what Bryan/Kane have given the fans and their division. Prime Time Players are gradually getting there; RhodeScholars (up til Cody's injury) were on the cusp of that, the Usos just need to be given the ball to run with; Tyson Kidd/Justin Gabriel need TV exposure; the Shield, 3MB (yeah, ok maybe not them). So there is still potential, but whether creative provides it or gives us other teams in the division will tell if the investment that put into Team Hell No was great or for not.

If you go into the Tag Division not giving a fuck about the tag division, of course you're not going to get anything out of it.

Primetime Players have been on a roll lately, have a fresh gimmick, and are genuinely entertaining in the ring and on the mic. Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara, while I can't say I personally enjoy either one of them, are a great boon to the tag division, being two of the most recognizable wrestlers on the roster. Team Rhodes Scholars was so unbelievably full of win before Rhodes got hurt. The Usos and Primo/Epico are good, talented undercard tag teams who actually dress as a unit, come out together and are not just singles stars with nothing better to do.

Given the state of the division a year ago, with the likes of McGuillicutty and Otunga being multiple time champs, the belts randomly being "awarded" to different makeshift teams, and there not even being any legitimate contenders for the belts, I really don't know how you can say the tag division hasn't made immense strides in a short period of time, and only looks to be on the up and up.

I really don't want Team hell No! to stick together too long. I can see them splitting up before the Rumble and Daniel Bryan going on to win the Rumble match. I think Daniel Bryan will Face Dolph Ziggler at Mania 29 for the WHC. I think Flair will be in Dolph's corner and Charlie Sheen will be in Bryan's corner.

They are entertaining together but I think Bryan is too big of star to be kept in the tag division for too long. I can see them losing to Rey and sin Cara at TLC or even the Rumble. They will probably have one final pay off match where Bryan would win and send him off into the singles division on the right foot. Teams like P.T.P., The Uso`s, Rey and Sin Cara I think will last longer. Eventually Team Rhodes Scholars will be back together(maybe) and possibly a new guy joining the Assention team will happen. I don`t really think the tag division needs Team Hell No! sticking around too long.(IMO)

For the sake of the tag team division they need to stick together. Obviously they will eventually go their seperate ways, but not right now.

I'm hoping for a full out feud with the Rhode Scholars. They are the ones responsible for injury Cody. It has the potential to be a really good tag team feud once Cody returns.

Also, it looks like they might be doing an angle with the Shield. Based off what I saw on Smackdown... It looks like the next step for them is that they start getting along and work like a real tag team.. Maybe change their name to team hell yes. The whole arguing with each other ran its course.

Kane is now in his mid 40s and is probably in the last real stretch of his career. He looks great and can still deliver inside the ring but it's only a matter of time before the wear & tear of the road catches up to him.

True, and I admit to not having thought of that. He's seemed so ageless for so long that it's easy to overlook the idea that being in a tag team can help extend his career. Several years ago, around the time he was making that Jason-style movie, we were hearing rumors he would be retiring soon. Fortunately, he didn't and it's remarkable how effective he's been the past few years.

When he went back behind the mask, it seemed he would be the unstoppable monster he was early in his tenure......and sure enough, look at the damage he heaped on Zack Ryder. Still, circumstances created by the writers turned him good again, and I find it remarkable how effectively he makes the whole thing work. Kane is surely one of the most adaptable characters ever to work in WWE.

Daniel Bryan is a small, terrific technical wrestler who has benefited from a lot of creative effort done on his behalf. It doesn't really matter if he's a good actor or not because they've fed him a few simple catchlines and he's run with them. He can do them alone or with Kane. I enjoy the way he plays the same character, whether as face or heel.

Together, they've still got steam left, so why not let the thing play out? One gets the feeling they'll eventually be at each other's throats again.....and that will be okay, too.

Like others have already sad, Hell No! needs to be the centerpiece for the tag-team division - for now. They won't be there forever, no one or no team is, but they are the champs and are holding their fair share of the division. I think PrimeTime players are next in line to be champs, Titus O'Neal and Darren Young are too skilled in the ring to not become champs. Team Hell No!'s biggest threat is the Prime Time players, and have been for some time. Other teams aren't as far back in the title chase as you may think. Sin Cara-Rey Mysterio seem to be working well together, Sandow-Rhodes gotta get back on track when Rhodes returns. Bottom line: Team Hell No! is there on top and will be for sometime into early to mid 2013.
