Putting the belts on the f***ing b team over these guys was an absolute joke. I like Bo and Axel but their overness was a flash in the pan. They should have dropped the belts immediate to Revival after they beat Wyatt and Hardy, instead they jobbed to AOP and they sucked even harder. Eh, I feel like striking while the iron is hot is something WWE has fumbled with miserably, and to actually give the B Team the belts was a surprising case of them actually going with it for once. In a better world the company would do a good job of keeping its whole roster credible, and nobody would ever be so utterly ruined by "we went with these dudes for a month instead"

Then I had to google who was currently champs. With only like four teams on each roster maybe it’s time to let the tag titles go. I still say they should have put the titles on Breeze & Fandango. Those guys were money.

I’m all for competition and AEW, but some are already treating it like the messiah has come and is saving us from the evil WWE. Like pls stop lol I'm not saying that, but given they could have a TV deal and actual high end contracts that rival WWE's with benefits to full time signees, they legitimately could get guys who feel like their careers are in a tailspin or going nowhere, an alternative that wasn't there a year ago. The reality of the situation though, is most people don't care. By which i mean, band aids ARE adhesive medical strips. Wwe IS wrestling. I feel wrestling fans have this disconnect from reality where a new promotion pops up and then cut to an office water cooler. Two employees talking and suddenly coworker James runs up, sweaty, shaking and out of breath "guys....new...wrestling promotion. Great angles. Medicare. Talented wrestlers. Decent tv time slot" "But its still wrestling, right?" "...oh....yeah..never mind. You guys catch season 37 of survivor last night?" Wwe gets to not care partially because of no competition, but mainly because professional wrestling is so niche it will never experience a boom period again, so they are the McDonalds that wont be toppled.

Can I just say I love how a company that’s only been around for a week technically is like the new WCW where everyone’s thinking every unhappy WWF wrestler is gonna join that “southern organization”.
I hope Mean Gene has his hotline working up in heaven, I need the scoops for 4.99 per minute.

"Fear?" wwe treats then like nobodies,why would they fear losing then. Because Triple H thinks wrestlers are Pokemon and he's gotta catch 'em all.

Wherever they go, they're gonna tear it up in the ring. Can't wait for that as a fan of tag team wrestling.

It's Vince that didn't do anything with them True but it kind of just speaks to the broader problem of, "WWE is signing all of the people right now." Even if Triple H were running the main roster I doubt there'd be much time for them with the constant influx of new signings and their refusal to ever trim the fat anymore.

Yeah, one of the biggest problems right now is this stupidly bloated roster. When you've got a roster packed with this many legitimate stars, there's no reason for Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder, Rhyno, Baron Corbin, Primo, Epico, Sin Cara, Goldust, Tamina, Mickie James, No Way Jose, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel, Sanity, or most of 205 Live to be employed.

Yeah, but guys, when HHH takes over, he's gonna lead us to a magical happy Candy Land where everything's perfect forever, and nothing will ever be wrong in WWE again! Seriously, though, I don't understand why people still cling to this narrative that anything's gonna be different once Stephanie and Triple H take over.

The hope is for a better on-screen product, when the writers are all but screaming "It's Vince you guys. It's all Vince" in interviews and NXT has been consistently well received. Nobody thinks WWE is going to become a perfect company, but that doesn't mean there isn't at least the hope for a change in the product that might make people sick and tired of it want to come back.

"I want to make four pop-tarts into one pop-tart. I will use fire as a bonding agent!"
