10. The Hurt Business Become The Gold Standard

The Hurt Business are awesome.

Sorry to any haters, but they are. MVP's bandwagon saved the WWE careers of going-nowhere-fast workers like Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander, and it also gave Bobby Lashley something to do that wasn't totally humiliating (see "three sisters" and Lana drama for that).

At TLC, Cedric and Shelton should become the new Raw Tag-Team Champions. This is not a slight on New Day at all - it's more that THB are rolling along nicely right now, and they deserve to become an even bigger part of the Monday night flagship. The best way to make that happen is to give the lads some more gold.

Brimming trophy cabinets and big shiny belts work when it comes to heel stables. That's a tried-and-tested booking trope that everybody can get behind, and it's hardly like Kofi Kingston or Xavier Woods will suffer by doing the J.O.B.
