10 WWE Tag Title Challengers After Extreme Rules

10. The Ascension

The Ascension moved up from NXT a few short months ago in what seemed like a soon to be decent push in the tag team division. After cutting several promos on retired (and even deceased!) legendary wrestlers that were not received well, WWE balked on them.

Sadly, Konnor and Viktor are mostly on this list just because they exist. They are warm bodies that might serve as a transitional heel team for the babyface duo of Tyson Kidd and Cesaro to feud with until a more formidable team came along.

Given this opportunity, maybe a few subtle changes to The Ascension could be offered in hopes of getting a more valued crowd reaction. Even if booked solely for the sake of losing, WWE might luck out and accidentally find a way to make this team work.
