Um what do they do now?
They lost clean last night and have not been made to look like legit threats to team hell no. Do they now split and have cody turn face or will they just keep being a team but just moved down the ladder so the prime time players get a chance?

Split 'em. Send Sandow after the IC title and Cody after Del Rio.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

If they split, both of them should stay heel. I don't a thrown together mash up team should go through big breakup and turn scenario. It would just feel forced.
I think they should go back to singles contention, but continue teaming together in TAG TEAM MATCH PLAYA tag matches.

Let them stay a team.
For these midcard titles to mean something, we need to have people challenge for them and fail to win them sometimes.
What we've gotten for years now is
Step 1: Titles sit on people doing nothing.
Step 2: Challenger(s) step up, "I want the title!"
Step 3: Challenger wins title.
Step 4: New title holder does nothing for months, repeat for next time.
Any sort of midcard "division" needs a pecking order, else it doesn't feel like a division anymore, it's just guy with title, guy challenging for title, no one else in company cares. Like what they do with the diva division.

They'll probably get a rematch on Raw or Smackdown soon where they win the titles due to the fact that Bryan and Kane turn on each other. But I don't really know what they'll do as champs.

It baffles me that just three weeks ago they had a great promo with the Rock that ranks up with one of the best segments I've seen on Smackdown in years, and yet since then they've done nothing but job on Raw and then lose at the Rumble.
Team Hell No have run their course.

I don't want them to split up. They can still go after singles titles and keep their alliance. No need to hurt the tag division any more.

Was thinking that too. Tag titles are really flimsy right now though. If Hell No split up, a heel team is already having to dip into ryder/santino territory to find a team to even defend against.

Sandow and Rhodes win the belts via three way at EC against Hell No and the Primetime Players, face Bookdust at WM, then maybe hold the belts for a bit.

Like what they do with the diva division. Right now the Tag Team Titles are on Kane and Daniel Bryan because Creative has nothing else for them, but they're too high up the pecking order to not be doing anything. Likewise, Rhodes Scholars are teaming up and facing Team Hell No repeatedly because Creative has nothing for Rhodes, but he's too hight up the pecking order to not be doing anything. And in the case of Sandow, WWE is too lazy to go through the trouble of actually elevating someone to be a foil for him. They could've easily booked someone like Ryder, Riley, Kidd, Gabriel, Santino, or Brodus so Sandow could have a feud against, but instead we have Sandow squashing them over and over like nothing. They just hotshotted him into the uppercard rather than booking someone to HIS level.

Have Rhodes feud with Golddust and Sandow be a multiple time WWE champion by the end of March

Easily fix for a month to give Creative at least a chance to figure out what to do with them. Keep them a team but split both them and Hell No into the chambers. All 4, I believe would have a great shot at putting on a good match in the EC, and would help make the champions seem more important to be going after more gold while holding the tag straps, at least in my opinion. I know some people feel the opposite.

If Hell No is in the chamber match as tag champs, it would be the third PPV where the tag titles were swallowed up into a high profile multiman feud. Unless two other teams (whether they be real teams, or two thrown together pairings) have a tag match, I don't see much of a benefit in this.

That's why I don't like it when the WWE throws together 2 upper midcarders and has them take the tag titles. People always go on about how they're going to elevate the tag division, but what really happens is that the WWE eventually starts booking them as above the division, which doesn't do anything to help the other tag teams.

Honestly I think the upper-card is too crowded to let either Rhodes Scholars or Hell No in the chambers:
Miz Kofi Cesaro Ryback Jericho Sheamus Orton Big Show Barrett Ziggler Del Rio Punk Rock
There's more than enough to fill two matches, maybe even two and a title match.

Break them up, they don't quite click as a regular tag team. Both of them need to stay strong as heels, after Ziggler that side of the card looks pretty weak.

I always thought the Rhode Scholars would win the tag titles, followed by Kane and Daniel Bryan fighting over each side blaming each other and having comical skits that deal with putting aside their frustrations and trying to work together as a team, which would lead to them winning the titles back in a rematch.
