They need real legit tag teams. That’s the main problem they’ve had, and keep having. Currently they have
Rhode and DiBiase: they held the tag titles for a long time and lost them, and haven’t got them again because they’ve been too busy jobbing to Triple H, Batista, and Shane
Crime Time: are they only used for comedy skits and diva storylines? When will they step it up and get some gold that’s not in their mouths?
The Colon: neither could survive alone as solo stars, so there’s no need to break them up or feud them with each other. Their good as a tag team, so keep them that way
Kidd and Hart: they can only get better with time, but let them work as a tag team, and keep them away from solo matches where they lose to people in the ECW main even picture
WGTT: they shouldn’t be a team any more, let Shelton go his solo way and keep pushing him as the gold standard, Hass needs a partner, but give him someone else to work with
That’s it, the WWE has alot of people they could use in tag teams, but unless their built up as legit tag teams (sorry Golddust and Hornswoggle do not count) then they’re not legit and are not credible. They need real teams, with real gimmicks, not two random dudes thrown together on a weekly basis. Look at "the Brian Kendrick" they sent him to the Raw, now outside of Hornswoggle he’s the smallest guy on the brand, and now he’s a jobber again, great way to ruin someone so talented, he was much better when he was in a tag team with Paul London, and they had a gimmick. How long until he’s in another squash match with Triple H/Cena/Big Show on the other side of the ring from him? 2 weeks? 2 months?
As far as having two sets of belts, they need to combine them into one title, or have the Colons lose a set of them ASAP. If they combine them into one set the tag champs should work on all brands, due to the lack of real teams in the WWE.
Miz and Morrison did it when they had the tag titles, why can’t anyone else?
I don’t and won’t ever understand why they break up established tag teams, when they don’t have anything lined up for them. Jessie and Festus should still be teaming together, rather than using Festus randomly on Raw in BS comedy skits involving Golddust and Hornswoggle. Has Jessie had a match since the draft? What good does it do to have Festus the blundering “mentally challenged” wrestler on Raw without his look out? It just doesn’t make sense at all.
Now on the other hand I do understand why they break certain tag teams apart, so they can push to two talents further as solo stars (the Miz and Morrison) but some of these people don’t have a solo future, they need their tag partner to get over, and keep them interesting. How long were the Hardy’s, Edge and Christian, WGTT, the Dudley’s together before being broken up for solo action. It took years to establish them as solo stars, years. I don’t see why Vince and the “creative” team insist on forcing teams apart when they have nothing line up for them. Remember when they split the Dudley’s up in the draft? Devon became Rev Devon….snore fest, and Buhba Ray got beat by a sleeper hold in the middle of the ring during a 3 week feud with Triple H. It didn’t work for the Dudley’s because neither of them could get over alone to save their life.
It was working well for Shelton he was becoming a great heel, and a good US Title Run, and did some great work during this year’s WM MITB match, until they put Hass back on Smackdown. Don’t get me wrong Hass is great in the ring, but he brings Shelton, who was finally pushing into the upper card, back down. They should have left Hass and Knocks together rather than rehashing WGTT again.
While we’re on the subject of Tag Wrestling, why do they even bother to have women’s tag matches? Their rarely worth watching, and they don’t help to build anything. The only way they every use them is to turn one of the chicks heel to feud with her partner, booooring.
