3. Tag Team Mayhem

On the night, the six-pack tag team ladder match for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship will probably be just fine.

But for a kickoff to the mini-program, on a night when the GMs raved about WWE’s stacked tag team division, this was a pretty blah night. One-half of the champs, who also holds the Money in the Bank briefcase, struggled in a singles match against a comedy character who doesn’t know what day it is, what city he’s in, who anyone actually is or what’s going on.

Then one of the possible teams in the tag ladder match got unceremoniously laid out in short order trying to help R-Truth after the match, looking like complete goofs despite challenging for the tag titles just last month.

It just wasn’t an inspiring follow-up to the announcement, especially considering these tag titles were defended in the main event of WrestleMania last year. One year later and they were part of an underwhelming segment involving R-Truth and #DIY that didn’t exact wow.

They would have been better served to have #DIY and the Creed Brothers go out there and blow the doors off the arena to show what the teams can do.
