10 Worst WWE Tag Team Champions Ever
1. David Otunga & Michael McGillicutty
Curtis Axel isn't anywhere near as bad a performer as his WWE record suggests.
He's been positioned as a jobber for much of his career, and he certainly isn't on the same level as his father, Mr. Perfect, but he's a solid technician who could've forged a successful midcard career if it wasn't for a long series of creative blunders. Sadly, he'll forever be defined by his failure as a Paul Heyman guy and this historically bad promo, along with his run as a faceless enforcer for The New Nexus.
Still competing as Michael McGillicutty, he captured became a WWE Tag Team when he and career-long goober David Otunga defeated Kane and Big Show in May 2011. The held the belts for three excruciating months, with the company somehow managing to tick every single box on their 'bad title reign' bingo card along the way.
The duo won the belts via interference. Neither was over with the crowd, and while McGillicutty had some skill, he and his partner were devoid of charisma. Nobody cared, and WWE gave the fans no reason to do so either, with the duo mustering only three defences during their run, none of which came on pay-per-view.
They were treated like worthless cannon fodder throughout, dealing further damage to an already lowly set of titles, before Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne thankfully took them off The New Nexus' hands.
