8. Turning The Tables
New Day retaining the WWE Tag Team Championships by less than fair means is quite alright. It reminds everyone that no matter how entertaining they are, they are bad guys in the ring. Its a shame in some ways that they were disqualified to retain, rather than cheating behind the refs back to win. But the match itself was good, and it set the table (pardon the pun) for a rematch, perhaps with New Day winning again with a little help from the outside. All of this seems to be building to one conclusion: The Dudleys need some help on the outside, maybe a little family assistance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7e_U-fhFaU Come on, if you havent already drawn that conclusion, youre either new to wrestling or a WWE creative team member. (Seriously, is it possible that the writers havent thought of having Spike Dudley return to even the odds at Hell in a Cell?) Either way, this is a fun nostalgia run for Bubba Ray and D-Von, and New Day is white hot, so it makes for good matches. More please.
