What a completely random tag team this is. It just stinks of "we've no idea of what to do with these guys, let's throw them together". Sadly, given their track record of overpushing Rey and Show; I can honestly see them taking the belts away from the Rhodes Brothers ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) Granted, I like that there is a tag team feud that's going to be given time and such... but couldn't they have used one of the actual tag teams. Like The Real Americans or PTP or something? Instead of forming the world's dullest tag team.

I don't think the Uso's should get the tag title shot, last night it was proven they actually have negative kayfabe powers.

They're The Team That Should Not Be. So tired of thrown-together teams getting more emphasis than the regular teams.

The only way this team would work is if they wore wifebeaters and tighty-whities and had a Preston/Wee-Man gimmick:

No you see, they are a good team. If you add up both their heights and divide by two, you get a person just slightly under normal height.

Honestly with no WHC and both of them aging veterans, there's nothing more for them to do. I think they'll put a lot more guys in tag teams that they can't just plug in the WHC title picture anymore.Like, I dunno, expect Alberto to team with Miz or something when he gets back.

I guess I can kind of see a tag team with a really tiny guy and a really huge guy...but I mean, as far as them not being able to come up with anything else for them goes...that's because there's nothing left for either of them to do but retire.

I said this in the Raw thread, I want Big Show to carry Rey to the ring in his singlet, like a kangaroo.

Why not team them with other people to put them over? Put Rey with HuniCara, and maybe do Show and someone else like Tyson Kidd. Or rehash the Show/Henry alliance so Big E can focus on defending his title. Or turn Show heel so that someone can get the rub of "slaying the giant". At least Miz was chasing the IC title most of the year. Can't the fringe main eventers do that instead? Retaining the IC Title against Big Show or Rey will mean more than beating Kofi or Axel.

Hey, yeah, that's right. Mysterio is back, they have A Sin Cara, why not just pair them up and build toward the WM match they've been wanting for years?

I think we'll get a Henry/Big E feud eventually, either a Henry heel turn or a face vs face match up. I think they're just trying to see where certain guys will fit. Some will be better in tag teams, some will go after midcard titles, etc. They also can't forget about guys like Kofi, Fandango, Axel and how they'll fit against all the semi main event guys. It'll just take some time for it to all gel together.

Those guys have already been in programs with guys like Miz and Ziggler, so I think they can be seen as semi-credible threats who are at least capable of putting on solid matches.

I like that they transform into OptimusMysterio for their finish. A tag team is a good place for them both to be at this point in their careers.

They've teamed up before, haven't they? Plus there's the WCW connection so it's not totally random.

Just have the team do house shows so that I don't have to see them on t.v.

Did anyone else notice that Big Show was the more mobile and agile of the two?

There's something adorable about Rey jumping into Big Show's arms. Like a toddler jumping into their dad's arms for an embrace.
