5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Aug 12)

Downs...

4. It’s Still Hard To Get Excited

This fan looked on in awe as several others got frothy at the thought of WWE's Women's Tag-Team Title tournament online. It was like most just expected magic because Vince McMahon is no longer involved and Triple H is calling the shots. There's still one huge problem with the division.

It's full of thrown-together teams.

Neither Raquel Gonzalez and Aliyah nor Shotzi and Xia Li could be considered proper full-time duos. WWE is still lumping loads of singles stars who have nothing to do together and expected people to care when they barely give a sh*t themselves.

Sure, the match was decent, but everything feels so underwhelming that it's difficult to get onboard or view these tourney bouts as truly meaningful. Some sloppy moments also halted any momentum these women were trying to build up.

The division needs more. It deserves more.
