10 Radical Ideas That Could Save WWE's Tag Division
6. Stop Placing Tag Stars Into Singles Matches
And heres another whiteboard edict for WWEs creative team: No more tag stars to be booked, ever in singles competition. It makes no sense for one half of a legitimate tag team to accompany the other half to the ring as a glorified valet while the competing half pretends hes a singles wrestler. These guys are tag specialists for a reason. Tag team wrestlers should always wrestle in tag teams: its why theyre there, and its the match the crowd expects them to compete in. If theyre booked in a singles competition, you cant blame the crowd for thinking of them as singles performers slumming it in the tag team division: again, it hurts the brand. And why place a tag team partner in a position whereby he runs the risk of being disqualified if he wants to deliver any of the tag-style double team moves or combinations that exist to get him over?
