Neither does this though.

'Dem Dirty Dawgs dropped the SmackDown Tag-Team Titles at WrestleMania Backlash last week, then Robert Roode jobbed to Dominik Mysterio in a short match here. Things do not look good for Roode and Dolph Ziggler - it wouldn't be a shocker if they start arguing soon.

That's WWE's go to booking for tags once they lose the straps. The company seem incapable of penning two tag feuds at once too, meaning the Dawgs could be headed for splitsville. That's be a damn shame, because they've been a consistent highlight on TV this year. They must stick together.

The Mysterio clan can feud with Alpha Academy (or The Usos longer term) without having to split the Dirty Dawgs. If anything, Dolph and Bobby should find themselves some other babyfaces to clash with in the interim. That's what a division is.
