20 Things You Probably Missed From WWE Raw (Feb 18)

WWE's announcers have told how Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder are great friends since they reunited their tag-team. That only made it stranger that Michael Cole dipped into the history books to tell how they'd been known as The Major Brothers earlier during their respective runs.

Spot the problem here.

It's odd for WWE to acknowledge that they used to pretend Hawkins and Ryder were siblings. Even odder is the fact that Cole then didn't tie up this loose end by saying it was just a name they'd given themselves to show solidarity.
