Three out of the last four years, the WWE Tag Team Championships have been relegated to the WrestleMania pre-show. In every instance, the Usos have been involved, robbing the most over duo in the company the opportunity to perform on the main pay-per-view broadcast. In the process, the tag titles, devalued already by their misuse on television, have been deemed unworthy of being defended on the most important card of the year. Thus, fans have no reason to buy into them as being significant when the company's creative staff cannot be bothered to come up with a story or feud that would necessitate the championship's inclusion in the broadcast. That must change. WWE will only further lend to the lack of respect and credibility of the tag titles by continuing to book them in the fashion they are. They must appear on the WrestleMania 32 because if they do not, any prestige they still have left will be erased.
