Just to actually answer the question, nothing. From 2011-2014, the Usos were putting in some of the best matches whether it was tag or 6 man involving the Shield/Wyatt's. Just sucked that some of those matches were on preshows instead of actual PPVs. They were lowkey some MVPs around then. What made it even better was they started from the ground up and got completely over with the fans. They went from getting squashed by PTP and the Colons to getting over with crowds through sheer will and putting on standout matches. It wasn't until maybe 2015 where they started getting very stale, so this current change they made as heels is very welcome and needed.

As far as the Young Bucks, if they were in the WWE, they'd be getting washed by Braun, or taking Ls to Ascension on Main Event. Without the Bullet Club name attached to them, the Young Bucks are nothing more than the 1994-1997 Hardy Boyz with a larger moveset.

The Usos stole their superkick spam and started using a half-ass version of their finish, so what does that make them? :dwillhuh:

Also, the Bucks heel work has elevated anyone against them in PWG to the most over faces in the company for however long they feuded with them. Have the Usos ever elevated anyone?

To me, the best tag matches in recent memory (on the main roster) are Cody/Goldust v The Shield at BattleGround and HellNo v The Shield at Extreme Rules are head and shoulders above everything else. The Usos haven't had anything on that level.

The usos dont spam the superkick like that

if anything, they got it from The Headshrinkers

Young Bucks don't really do for me. The ripoff argument doesn't work when you're paying homage. Bucks are a parody not a good parody like Airplane to Airport or Robin Hood Men In Tights to Robin Hood, they're Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer status. It's tiresome and wack. At least the Usos saw the signs and changed it up.

It's almost mandatory a Samoan wrestler does a super kick. Along with a Samoan drop and a body splash.

Brehs, I just said they had good matches. The Usos don't have a single classic to their name. They've been in tag title situations for about 6/7 years now. That means something. They're good workers, but they have no higher gear, no next level. And quite frankly, very few original ideas or concepts.

I love their heel makeover as much as anyone else, but it hasn't resulted in anything yet. Let's see them have a better program with AA than the Revival had.

the wwe style 2 man tag team matches follow a formula, most matches are "good" ... they dont have the time nor liberty given like favored nxt tag teams or teams wrestling in other promotions

but if the shield get to lay claim to having classic 3v3 tag matches than usos definitely have at least one against them

The Usos feud with Rowan and Harper was great. The 2/3 falls match they had was great. Also had some great matches with Rollins and Reigns when they were tag champs as well.

On a side note, it's such a shame Rowan and Harper never got a run with the WWE Tag Titles.
