Speaking of splits, it had appeared that another might be impending for Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler after Seth Rollins nabbed the Intercontinental Title off Dolph. Similarly, some predicted Dean Ambrose would turn heel on Rollins after he returned with a new look and well-muscled frame.

Neither break up happened, and that's cause for celebration.

At HIAC, both teams produced a marvellous 23-minute example of everything that's right with tag-team wrestling. In the process, they swept away memories of how hard The Deleters of Worlds (sorry, Matt) and The B-Team had sucked as champions over the summer. This was old-school tag excitement.

The best thing is that there's lots more to come the longer McIntyre and Ziggler hold onto the gold. In the meantime, WWE should strive to elevate other Raw teams like Bobby Roode and Chad Gable or Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn (when he's back), so the division's momentum doesn't drop back down to mediocrity.
