I actually like epico and primo way moreso than primo and his former partner carlito. They need some talk time though, some type of character development. I think wwe is trying to create a tag division around one team which was formerly air boom. Thanks to bournes behaviors, it fell through. So they moved onto the net team. Before to long I believe more tag teams will start showing up, however I don't think the division will ever be what it once was. As for worst team...kane and hurricane or kane and rvd...pretty much kane and anybody. Yet they've had numerous teams that they broke up for no friggin' reason! Rad Bromance, Hart Dynasty, Cryme Tyme. Those teams should a.) still be together, and b.) feuding (along with a handful of other teams) over the belts. It's a damn shame.

It's sucks what happend to the Tag Team Division. Who remembers the WWF Survivor Series 1987 Elimination Match with Strike Force, The Young Stallions, The Fabulous Rougeaus, The Killer Bees, British Bulldogs vs. The Hart Foundation w/ Jimmy Hart, The Islanders w/ Bobby Heenan, Demolition w/ Mr. Fuji, The Bolsheviks w/ Slick, The New Dream Team w/ Johnny V? Aside from the Young Stallions, New Dream Team, Bolsheviks... The division had direction. I don't know why Vince shat on the division?

Vince hates tag teams. I don't get it myself. At the very least it's a way to get more guys on tv in the same amount of tv time.

Primo and Epico are over enough to the point where their theme song is my ring tone. Too bad Rosa doesn't appear and dance when I get a phone call...

It sucks that tag teams don't get a chance to talk or develop characters like they used to. The WWE has 4 hrs on tv every week and 2 hours with internet shows, yet the tag champs can't get a mic.

Seriously, has there ever been a more "nothing" tag team than these two? The only thing they have going for them, the only thing anyone ever talks about - is Rosa. If it weren't for shucky ducky quack quack these two would be dead in the water. We've had awful tag teams before, but has there ever been tag champs THIS non-descript? At least Otunga gets boo'd. I always get the impression no-one in the crowd knows who these two jokers with the belts and the hot girl actually are. They aren't jokers. They are both very good wrestlers. But the WWE hasn't given the fans a reason to care about them. The over-emphasis on the girl isn't helping. Similar thing happened to the Bashams.

They also had a resurgence with the tag team division in the Attitude Era(mostly in the latter half, the beginning half were makeshift tag teams). New Age Outlaws, APA, Too Cool, Edge and Christian, Dudleys, The Hardys, and most importantly, they were all OVER. It also adds to my theory that to have a successful main event, you should have a substantial mid(tag teams included) to support it. Its not surprising that the tag team divison was most useful when the company were in boom periods. And to the poster who said that thread makes them sad because of Cryme Tyme, the WWE had NO EXCUSE to not give them the belts. Because for reason number one, they were MEGA OVER, and two, the tag team division was hardly in existence. They rather use the belts on bland and unover teams or established main eventers. Its crap like this that makes me surprise fans didn't stop watching in protest.

Cade & Murdoch couldn't even get a reaction when they were facing DX every night.

Deuce and domino If they ever won the titles Not only did they win the tag team titles, they had a long reign. And they didn't get much of a response from the crowd for their entrance. More of a meh instead of boos. Yeah sounds about right And I really think the greasers gimmick could've been something even if it's basis was comedy team. But yep no chance to show or build their characters and then absolutely no Reaction good or bad

I remember the debut of Deuce and Domino. The commentary was awful. Instead of putting these guys (and Cherry) over as being something distinct and special, Michael Cole seemed completely bewildered by them, and JBL (who was greatly overrated as an announcer IMO) basically regarded them as three lunatics who were basically a joke.
