Yeah, but I can understand Daniels and Sydal. I think they went like 3 shows without defending them after they won them or some jazz. it was worse than that. Daniels & Sydal promised at Dethroned to give Aries & Strong the first shot, but at the next show Daniels competed in a singles match while Sydal teamed with Shingo to face them. Aries & Strong did get the second shot though at FYF: NYC, about three months (seven shows) after Daniels & Sydal won the belts. And in terms of effectiveness as a team they easily beat Rinamaluke. What was the point? I mean, really? Why couldn't Jacobs and Whitmer drop the belts to Aries and Strong? They'd been built up so strongly and then *poof* we have the worst champions ever. they couldn't drop the belts to Aries & Strong, as they were preoccupied with the war with The Embassy, which would mean less time furthering the feud so they could defend the titles or less time defending the titles so they could focus on the feud. the loss did however give Whitmer & Jacobs a reason to join Lacey as the new Lacey's Angels.

I'll be honest, as possibly the only Sal Rinauro mark on these boards, I wish I had some of the shows from his championship reign.

I really liked the BJ/Jimmy team too. When they eventually did get to Whitmer/Jacobs vs. Aries/Strong I recall it being a pretty fun little match. what was so "fun" about it was that Jacobs, for the second show in a row, spent more time focusing of Lacey than on the match. it was that match that Whitmer quit Lacey's Angels and gave Jacobs an Exploder

What I meant was they could've held the belts until Final Battle then dropped them to Aries and Strong. I never saw any point in giving them to Mamaluke and Rinauro when Jacobs and Whitmer could've done the exact same thing, just a whole lot better.

It would've made sense for her to target the best teams in the company, and you don't get better than the tag team champions.

I think the age of the fall may actually try ,in their promos, to be annoying. I mean, we are all saying they're annoying, perhaps that's what they're going for. You're right, except it's the type of annoying (at least to me) where I don't want to watch them wrestle. I tried getting into their promos, but couldn't do it.
