On the flip side of the huge negative of the Raw Tag Team Championship debacle, we’ll give some optimistic praise to Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode, because there’s always a chance that they could become a good tag team to watch going forward.

Roode & Ziggler had never tagged before they inexplicably won a tag team turmoil match, defeating numerous established teams en route to earning a title shot. Before that, Ziggler was a human punching back, and Roode was all but invisible on WWE programming. So to say this was out of the blue would be an understatement.

However, there is a small chance that this new team could gel and be given a chance to prove their mettle rather than being transitional champs to move the titles to another team. Or maybe they’ll have a high-profile feud with someone like the Viking Raiders. It is possible.

For that, we’ll give a very tentative “up” here.
