4. Are Makeshift Tag Teams A Good Idea?

This is an interesting one. Makeshift tag teams often seem like a bad idea, but in recent cases (ie. Heath Slater and Rhyno) they can make for compelling - and sometimes hilarious - viewing. Another great example is Chris Jericho and Big Show, a short-term team thrown together with very entertaining results.
In other cases (ahem, the Golden Truth) tag teams appear to be formed simply because creative has nothing for either guy in terms of a singles storyline. Overall, I think the concept of makeshift tag teams can be fine if handled well, and if they're formed for the right reasons. Then again, in the case of Jeri-Show, they can become successful simply by the sheer force of the members' personalities.
