Remember how awesome it used to be? There were actual tag teams and not just singles wrestlers teamed up? Teams had their own gimmicks. They may not have been the greatest in-ring workers, but their gimmicks were great and always made for fantastic storylines.

I don't really watch any more (trying to get back into it, caught most of RAW last night), but simply from reading here, all of the tag teams are being split up into singles. Brutal.
I knew the tag division wasn't going to be taken seriously as soon as they started prefacing tag team names with "TEAM"
I'm surprised they didn't call the Usos "Team Usos" and the PTP "Team Prime Time Players"
There's plenty of mid card talent to make a really good tag division, with an extremely wide variety of wrestling styles and gimmicks. You would think with three hour shows they could fit in a good tag team division, but 90 minutes of recapping is more important I guess.
The people who do watch regularly have long gotten over the fact that the tag team division sucks nowadays. It had a brief little resurgence, but most accepted the fate of tag team wrestling in WWE a long time ago. You think it's bad now, but the last few months are sadly actually the best it has been in a long time.
