7 WWE Facts And Stats For This Week's Raw (Aug 4 2014)

2. Rhodes Brothers vs. Rybaxel, Yet Again

If anyone ever needed evidence of lazy booking by the WWE, they can look right at this episode of Raw, or maybe even ten others this year. Since May, Cody Rhodes (now known as Stardust) and Goldust as a team have worked exclusively with Ryback and Curtis Axel on television. Compounding the problem is the absolutely ridiculous number of times the teams have worked together since last fall. The two teams have had no less than ten televised tag team matches, half of which have occurred since May. If that wasn't enough, combinations of the two teams have squared off in another ten singles matches, all without any significant (or insignificant) build or animosity towards the teams. But wait, there's more! While Cody Rhodes was in the transition to the Stardust character, Goldust and other partners took on Ryback and Axel twice more. Here's to hoping both teams can move on quickly.
