Like, I get the feeling they're actually friends IRL, with the little interactions and the secret handshake during the backstage segment. By far my favourite tag team at the moment.
Plus, they're freaking amazing in the ring!

I am really digging their chemistry, especially since it originally seemed like they were two singles guys that had the same manager, but quickly gelled into an actual unit.
Hopefully, they will get to be the heels that get to beat the Rhodes Family for the titles.

Proof that it's not necessarily a bad thing to put two guys in a "thrown together" team if you're willing to stick with it and give them a chance to develop some chemistry.

This team's what finally sold me on Cesaro. He's never worked for me before, but he and Swagger are awesome together.

Is it me or is Cesaro the first guy that Swagger has actually had chemistry with?
It's funny, WWE used to have a lot of guys that seemed like they'd work teaming up with almost anyone, bust now they've actually pulled out some guys, like Swagger, Ziggler and Sheamus who just don't seem natural teaming with any guys, at least guys WWE has

There was a little something there with Ziggler but not enough to where it felt like he'd throw himself in front of a super kick to save him. I imagine working with Zeb to is a great help, ole Dutch always had great insight. It feels like the tag teams are finally working for a lot of people, two guys who aren't that solid, put together to hide each others weaknesses so they can improve over time. Swagger finally got the room he needed to try out new things and evolve and Cesaro finally got something to grasp to character wise that wasn't terrible and has been given time to get over. The same would apply to Prime Time Players as well, god knows those two would have sunk hard had they never teamed up.

That just makes me wish he did his push-up pyro entrance again.

Swagger has always been good, but that world title run and his following jobberdom had the iwc sour on him. Cesaro was good as the guy who loved america, but hates americans. However he couldn't get consistent eactions on his own
For some reason Zeb managing these two lead to both guys getting face reactions.
Them charging to the ring and tossing flags is always cool
Also it seems with this "push" both guys have really upped their intensity.

Proof that it's not necessarily a bad thing to put two guys in a "thrown together" team if you're willing to stick with it and give them a chance to develop some chemistry. it also helped that they actually had a reason to be a team and have a synchronized gimmick now. Cesaro being a beast in the ring certainly helps, and Swagger is noticeably more motivated than he has been in a long time; this team-up may have saved his job. plus I love Uncle Zeb in his cartoonish strawman glory.

I do wish they would match up their ring attire, that's always a pet peeve of mine. Have Cesaro add something akin to Swagger's singlet design to his trunks or something.

Virtually any tag team is thrown together when it starts out, though. Tag teams don't just arrive fully formed. I was more referring to guys who start in a company as a team instead of being two guys who started as and were more well known as singles competitors for a significant amount of time then went on to became a team because there was nothing for them to do as singles competitors.

Swagger's definitely more motivated though. I personally think if he hadn't got put in the team, he would've either been shitcanned already, or be in the process of getting jobbed out before getting das boot.

It's the best thing that could've happened for both guys. They were both going nowhere fast before this team. Whether it be because of drug issues or yodelling.

Nah the color coordination works they both wear black and yeah. Two really good wrestlers. Cesaro has always been great, and in this role Swagger actually gets room to grow. Haven't seen him this hyped since his ecw run.

I figured they were going to gel because as performers they're awfully similar. If you turn Swagger's power stat to MAX, you'd probably end up with Cesaro. If you turn Cesaro's tech stat to MAX, you'd probably get Swagger. Is it me or is Cesaro the first guy that Swagger has actually had chemistry with? There was a little something there with Ziggler but not enough to where it felt like he'd throw himself in front of a super kick to save him... I always figured it was because as characters, Swagger and Ziggler were a prime example of Technician vs. Performer. Swagger and Ziggler would only get along in a very antagonistic sense. I wish that'd have been given a little bit of time to get fleshed out, but that would've been in the midcard and y'all know we aren't supposed to give a shit about the midcard unless you've got "stars" in it.
