11 Ups & 0 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Mar 31)

6. Further Dissension In Team Taz

Team Taz

It was only a short segment, and it was one that didn't reveal any new information.

And, on a subjective level, Team Taz has far more potential than has been realised. But here's the thing: AEW operates under cause-and-effect continuity. Wins and losses matter. Team Taz lost a big match at Revolution, and that failure caused Brian Cage to reassess things. There is a gravity to everything in AEW, and really, it makes little sense for the stable to just carry on, find a new target, and pretend as if the events of March 7 didn't happen. That is contrived, easy carny booking that detracts from the whole. Besides which, Brian Cage is a muscle beast with freakish agility. He has major potential as a babyface.

AEW does things that make sense, almost invariably, even if it doesn't feel that way initially.
