In case you forgot, A-Town Down Under and Awesome Truth walked out of WrestleMania 40 with both halves of the tag titles.

That depressing reality sunk in during their tag match on Raw, a clunky, clumsy affair that saw R-Truth tag himself in, leading to confusion with the Miz, which allowed Austin Theory to get the win.

The match was forgettable filler, but it also reinforced just how weak the tag divisions were coming out of 'Mania as both these teams were holding gold. Both teams have since dropped those titles, but it’s almost depressing to think that the Usos and Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens battled in the main event of night one of WrestleMania 39 for the tag titles, and these four guys walked out with the straps a year later.

He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
