10 Things That HAVEN'T Totally Sucked About WWE In 2021

As shockingly horrific as they are at producing consistent tag team wrestling, WWE has a decent track record with mismatched pairings. It worked for Team Hell No, it worked for Kane and the Big Show, it worked for Kane and Rob Van Dam, and it's working right now for RKBro.

The duo has been a dependable asset on the red brand since they began teaming back in April, with Riddle's overall goofiness working terrifically well alongside Orton's constant I-couldn't-give-less-of-a-f*ck mood. Every aspect of their presentation is covered well, namely their needlessly lame entrance that works in this situation. Orton's typical saunter down the aisle while Riddle rides next to him on a pissing scooter is a decent laugh.

Stupidly named RKBro (this should be the name of Riddle's jumping Cutter, not the team), the pair are no doubt going to be Raw Tag Team Champions by year's end, implode, and then have a feud amongst themselves. It's how these things typically go.

It's good for now, though.

WWE put two guys together - one of which is a legitimate superstar who hasn't needed a tag team partner since he and Edge were aligned - and it's worked. It's hardly the greatest patter out there, but if it can add any flavour to Raw, then it deserves some form of acknowledgement.
