Write your ideas for storylines here for tag teams, because every tag teamer has been buried this year. My idea would be making Slater and Gabriel Zoolander type characters. Slater's already got the blue steel look on his face 24/7, and Gabriel can be the one who's slighty smarter and screws crap up. Naturally, they idolize Rick the model Martel. Name for group- MAGNUM . Also I would pair Zack Ryder with Chavo and call them the Bro Warriors. And pair them up with a dog...'cause why not? It worked for the British Bulldogs.

Steal Brutus Magnus from TNA and team him up with Wade Barrett.
I don't care what they call themselves, I want to see it happen.

Unfortunately I had an idea to rebuild the tag division around a series of matches and title changes between Kaval/Del Rio (after a Kaval heel turn on Mysterio) and Mysterio/Bourne that would revitalize the scene. Alas...
In addition, having Barrett find an ally would be cool, but I'd rather have Desmond Wolfe than Brutus Magnus. Santino/Kozlov stick around. Call up Hunico & Epico from FCW, re-team Percy Watson & Darren Young, seriously give Mark Henry and Yoshi Tatsu some sort of push (for now they're not going anywhere as singles) and with some of the weaker teams there (Koztino, Young & Watson, Henry & Tatsu) serving as placeholders while WWE looks around the indies for legit tag teams to add on and rebuild the scene with.
As WWE finds new, legit teams to be called up, those temporary teams can be broken up, leading to mid-card feuds. So now you're helping both of those scenes out, while introducing teams that are NOT temporary, and meant to be a UNIT.

I would do something ROH does well. Have real tag teams win the titles and every now and then, defend them against two top singles stars and win. NEVER let a dream team or makeshift tean win the titles. Have the singles stars promo about how they decided to come together to acheive a major goal in winning the tag titles, which puts over the tag team titles. Only once a dream/makeshift team becomes serious about being a team and starts gelling in the ring with double-team moves and complimenting each other's styles and have matching ring gear should they be in considering for a tag title run.
But for the basics of the division. I'd say have three teams as the cornerstones and build around them and the chase for the titles. It's not that hard. Just give them 15-20 minutes each week of TV time for matches and promos. Make the titles seem important to those three teams and the dream/makeshift teams and the fans will see it. Back in the 80's, Hogan and Savage vs

Well....
*HRRRM*
Seems like ideal first step would be undoing damage that has been done, no? So you reteam the Harts, bring BACK Cryme Tyme (but this time ditch the silly side of their gimmick and make them the GANGSTAS 2k11..you know, the total opposite of what they were booked as last time), if possible, you bring back the Highlanders, bring back Haas and Benjamin (Team Swagger?), and all of a sudden, with a NEXUS team (which could use the "Freebird rule" for extra heat) and the Usos, you have a pretty rockin' tag division again. Maybe reunite Jeri-Show as a face tag team this time, to pad the division, and you're in business.
;D

Santino & Kozlov are a good tag team, but Santino should be the face in peril, not Kozlov The Usos get moved to SD since they loss Tamina, there they WWE could edit in a crowd reaction for them R-Truth gets moved to SD and teams up with his "friend" JTG Whenever Ziggler drops the title, I could picture an alliance between him and Swagger with both having the "pure wrestling athletes" gimmick I would team up Chavo and Primo as the official heel jobber team Move Darren Young to SD, team him up with Percy Watson Bring back Yoshi and Goldust as a team I think Dibiase would benefit from a team with Clay
Finally, I would end Nexus already and do the following:
- Have Barrett form an alliance with Regal similar to Miz/Riley, but also occasionally team him with Sheamus - Turn Gabriel face and eventually have a highflying team of him and Bourne when he returns - McGilliHusky become a full-time tag team

I loved what they did with the tag belts when Big Show and Jericho held them.
The undercard gets no time in the WWE, so its better than 4 top tier talent battle for the titles constantly.
Gives them prestige too.

All I know is that I want the Dashing Ones back. I loved them as a team.
I love the whole BFF thing Gabriel and Slater had/have going on, too, obviously.
EDIT: Also agreeing that Zack Ryder needs to be in a tag team.

Ryder may as well rejoin with Hawkins.
Lucky Cannon is doing Cody's gimmick in FCW, so he may as well come up and be the partner who takes the beating in a tag team with DCR.
There was a picture of Mark Henry and Ahmed v2, with Ron Simmons and they were doing the Nation fist salute. May as well make that an on TV thing.

Chavo Guerrero and Alberto del Rio as the new LCM. It would surely elevate Chavo to the upper midcard. That, or could turn Del Rio into a comedy jobber. Either case, it's a win-win situation ;D

My division would look like this:
Santino/Kozlov Nexus Goldust/Chris Masters (new team) Usos Tyson Kidd/Zack Ryder (new team) Henry/Tatsu
3 face teams, 3 heel teams. Have 2 tag matches per week on Tv, 1 on Raw/SD, one on Superstars. Just...I don't know, have matches, have a team get hot and challenge the champs...beat them or not, I don't know. Its pretty easy to have a mediocre tag division, as opposed to nonexistent.

JTG and Chris Masters join forces as Cryme and Punyshment! Win. And hey- Eve or Rosa could have someone something to do again! Okay, how about this one? Husky Harris takes a HR Block class and becomes Alberto del Rio's personal tax man. He can team up with del Rio and call themselves Tax-Free Royalty. Oh wait, I forgot to mention my idea for a stable! Barrett, Regal, Shemus, MacIntyre. Call them the Commonwealth and let the USA chants rain down. Plus, I can listen to accents ;D

My thought process with JTG and Masters would have a series of Head Cheese like vignettes where JTG tries to teach Masters how to be "street", but all Masters cares about is buying baby oil and putting people in the Master Lock.

Beth Phoenix and Natalya...tag team champions.
Personally I think there's not a single current tag team on the roster that they'd look silly up against and they're good enough in the ring to make it work.
