The Authors of Pain are being Ascension'd

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

They keep doing the same thing over and over and all it does is clog up the main roster.

Make hoss tag team super dominant.
Send hoss tag team to main roster.
Get bored almost immediately and send them to Main Event.
Forget they exist until they're already jokes.

The window is closing before Akam's goofball face becomes too funny to take seriously.

Stop feuding with Titus Worldwide!

[Hit Girl]

I agree.

They suck.

[häšhtå.gdālėÿ]

Disappointing, but at this point you know what to expect. If you like a tag team, enjoy them the most you can in NXT because that's where the team will peak.

[Cronant]

how many dominant tag teams can exist at the same time?

NXT its fine because they just ship off older tags, but the WWE can't do that.

[H-Virus]

Is being Ascension’d better or worse than being Revival’d? Or American Alpha’d? Or Vaudevillian’d?

Has there been ANY NXT tag teams that have managed to find success on the main roster yet?

Fixed for truth

[Jacy Jayne Atomic Dog AMV]

It's not like they were any better in NXT beyond being mega overpushed when hardly anyone cared about them at all.

[Cyno]

It's a small miracle that New Day and the Usos have lasted this long.

I must admit, I'm not surprised the Vaudevillans or American Alpha failed. Revival has been disappointing for a number of reasons though.

[sportatorium]

The Revival committed the Cardinal Sin In Vince’s world- getting injured.

AOP are puzzling as they actually seem more intimidating than The Bludgeon Brothers, but seem to be on a downward spiral.

Enzo and Cass for better or worse...they only self-destructed after they split

The Usos are related to Roman Reigns and The Rock, they're safe.
As long as New Day sells a boatload of merchandise, they're safe too.

[Shark]

Revival are at least treated seriously. Ascension were crapped on by the announcers all match, every match.

How long until we get Rezar being the world heavyweight champion?

[lildude8218]

I'm not sure why Constable Corbin isn't using them as hired guns yet.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

This is one of those cases where WWE have missed an important story beat.

So, Akam lost to Apollo Crews, right? Then I have this question... How many singles matches has Akam had on TV ever? This may literally have been his first, so tell that story of how Akam is inexperienced competing on his own and how Crews spent most of his career as a singles talent, and how he beat him through his experience. You don’t have to like it, but it makes logical sense.

Did they even mention any of that at any point?

But, but that would require the commentary teams to actually do their jobs and tell stories, instead of just repeating buzzwords and insulting each other! We can't have that, dammit!

-Vince, probably.

[Yacht Persona]

Vince puts a lot less value in tag teams when he has a legacy of sticking two singles wrestlers together and giving them a push for the tag team championship. Why waste time building up tag teams when one day you can just grab two guys that are floundering and tell them that they're now a tag team, and then split them up later when it's convenient.

that is actually a good idea, aop guys are greener then goose shit, there matches look like video game matches where one spams big moves, being a muscle for corbin would hide there weaknesses

If you count the WWECW Championship as a world title, the Revival have beaten four world champions already.

My prediction that they win tag gold before the end of the year may still come true!
