For as long as they were in NXT, you would think Enzo Amore and Big Cass would have held the NXT Tag Team Championship at some point between 2013 and 2016. Especially considering all the teams that did reign as champions during that time period including The Ascension, Blake and Murphy, and The Vaudevillians.

WWE missed their chance to put the twin titles on them at the first TakeOver: Brooklyn show in August 2015, and again at TakeOver: London several months later. When they shockingly lost to The Revival on that show, it immediately became apparent that they were main roster bound, and sure enough, they arrived on the main roster the night after WrestleMania 32.

Although they have been mostly marginalized since the start of the Brand Split, Enzo and Cass remain a popular fixture on Monday Night Raw. However, with The New Day running low on fresh challengers to their Raw Tag Team Championship, it should only be inevitable before they defend against Enzo and Cass.

It obviously won't be at any point before the end of 2016, but if those two teams do indeed clash over the championships sometime soon, Enzo and Cass would be the best tandem on the Raw roster to dethrone New Day as champions.
