Apparently after the LOD 2005/Mexicools vs Regal and Burchill/MNM match, a new tag team came to clear the ring. This team is Mike and Todd Shane, the Shane Twins from OVW, or more famously to Wrestlecrappers, the Johnsons.
Now let's count the teams we have...
RAW:
The Superheroes (The Hurricane and Rosey)
The Heart Throbs (Antonio and Romeo)
Cade and Murdoch
Total: 3
SmackDown!:
LOD 2005 (Heidenreich and Animal)
MNM (Joey Mercury and Johnny Nitro)
London and Kendrick
Regal and Burchill
Mexicools (Any combination of Juventud, Psicosis and Super Crazy)
Shane Twins (Mike and Todd)
Total: 6
Is it possible? Tag Team wrestling back from the brink of extinction?

I thought it was actually the Tolands that will make their first appearance this Friday?

It's not dead on SmackDown, but it is just about dead on Raw. Last week's Homecoming had three whole hours, and our tag champs were never even mentioned! They appeared this week.... standing in a hallway as Triple H made his dramatic entrance!
The situation is much better for SmackDown for tag teams.

If they debut, can actually be entertaining, and get something resembling a push, then maybe tag wrestling's alive.
That's asking a lot from WWE creative, however.

maybe they should just make tag team wrestling "exclusive to smackdown" bring the tag teams over from raw.... could be a huge division and a major part of the smackdown telecast...i think that would be pretty cool personally...that is thw tag team title and tag teams exclusive to smackdown... random set up tag team matches for raw would still bo okay

there's always been a glimmer of hope for tag wrestling, but it may mean the end of the Cruiserweights. I mean, if you look at those teams, many have cruisers on them. it would be a good idea to just move the tag belts to SD and hire some more women wrestlers and have the women's division on RAW.

well, either way, the SD! tag division is coming alive, and oh, though it is for right now only on Velocity, Scotty 2 Hotty and Funaki are a team as well, i think that is like 8 or 9 teams for SD! now? hell Raw only has like 3-4 teams......pathetic.......

You know, if they're gonna kill of the cruiserweight division, they should go ahead and pull the trigger now. That way a few cruisers like, say, London and Spanky can move to Raw (by trade, contracts expiring, whatever) and compete against Cade and Murdoch. After watching the battle royal for a title shot on Velocity, I think having multiple cruisers in the ring at the same time is a great idea. You couldn't do it too much in the cruiserweight division (just imagine them trying to do something like that all the time. TNA has been on Spike for two weeks and already some people are complaining about constant x-division three-ways.) You can, however, do that in the tag division. The timing involved in some of the spots from the Velocity match could yield great moments in tag matches. I don't see anything like that being done by Animal and Heidenrape (I refuse to call them LOD, especially since they don't even announce them as such. Only the commentators call them LOD.)

Scotty and Funaki are not a real team, they're just 2 singles guys thrown together with no chemistry or backstory. Kendrick and London MIGHT be considered a team now, I hear they're calling themselves Insult 2 Injury. Also, Vito is more like Nunzio's lackey than his partner.

Vito and Nunzio have teamed many times in the past couple months on Velocity, mostly against The Mexicools. You know, that classic Mexican vs Italian rivalry!

I've just had a thought, since WWE owns the rights to the name Dudley Boyz & all that why not make two guys into the NEW Dudley Boyz! Perhaps even the Shane twins! Actually one of the twins could be the new Bubba-Ray & Shelton Benjamin could be the new D-Von!
Maybe Simon Dean could be the new Spike!

Any tag team that calls themselves The New (Rockers, Blackjacks, etc.) are destined to quickly make their exit straight to a Wrestlecrap posting.
