Seriously, at some point, it's time for us to realize that these guys are hindering a suddenly not-as-terrible Tag Team division.

They're just being pushed because of their sexuality.

Because, "Guy has Reigns beaten, Rollins dives in from nowhere, Rollins gets run off, SPEAROUTTANOWHERE!" is a winning formula.

Oh God, it just occurred to me they're going to lose them to Los Matadores after a bullfight sequence involving Reigns' spear, and it's going to be really stupid.

No lie I just had the exact same thought about 5 minutes ago. Who better to avoid Reigns's spear than Los Matadores? It would actually be pretty cool, but I'd be bummed The Usos weren't the ones to take the belts.

Not counting Bryan, I don't know if any of the champions should still be champion. Maybe AJ.

Now that the Shield are just hired muscle now, there's no real reason for them to have belts. If they want the Corporation to control most of/all the titles, then the belts need to be held by other heels who can be touted around as "good for business", not on "the help".

I am much more annoyed at Axel and Del Rio keeping their respective titles, especially the latter.
The tag team devision is doing really well at the moment and Shield now have plenty of teams to face. I really enjoyed the tag team turmoil on the pre show and the tag title match on the ppv was decent. Yeah, no problem at all from me with Shield keeping the titles when Uso's and PTP are looking like strong challenges at the moment.

Because they're not ready to lose yet.
The Shield will lose all of their belts (Ambrose included) around the same time and that's likely when Bryan damages the corporation enough. Until then they'll have the titles.

I don't have a problem with them remaining tag champs.

Do the Shield even defend their belts? Outside of PPVs that is?

Honestly I think the only team worthy of taking the titles from The Shield are The Uso's and they really should have done so at Summerslam after the great match both teams had at MITB. Now it just feels like The Shield are going to hold on to the belts until their split which, after this corporation business is done, can't be far off and I'm okay with that really. Build a new tag team up, debut a new tag team - whatever - just build someone up so when we're ready for The Shield to disband there are worthy adversaries to take the belts from them.
As for someone saying no-one but Bryan should hold the belt I'm not sure I agree. Ambrose's main focus may be The Corporation rather than his US Title but he's still proving to be a good champion and, as previously stated, I'm not sure how much longer The Shield will run together. If they do split up, Rollins should turn face and him beating Ambrose for the title would be a very good story. Del Rio and Axel should have lost their titles a while ago (Del Rio to Dolph at Summerslam - what a waste of Ziggler's face turn this has been - and Axel to anyone at anytime) but I'm also quite happy with AJ as champ (although I wouldn't be totally opposed to her losing it to Nattie or Naomi).

If they want the Corporation to control most of/all the titles, then the belts need to be held by other heels who can be touted around as "good for business", not on "the help". I can't really agree with that, speaking in Kayfabe. The Shield is essentially a collective main eventer. They're no Mean Street Posse(no one will ever be The Mean Street Posse, no matter how hard they try). In Kayfabe, they're the most dominant entity in the company and they've been that way since their debut. So HHH would definitely feel having them as champions is "best for business". That said, they don't need the belts. But because this angle just kicked off last month, you can't have the new regime crumble immediately. So I'd use the build towards Battleground to elevate a team by involving them in the Corporation angle.

Do the Shield even defend their belts? Outside of PPVs that is? Ideally, that's where they should be defending the belts. Too many free TV title changes = not best for business.

I'm not asking for TV title changes, but until now I honest to god forgot there were tag team and US belts. I'm dead serious, here.
