I haven't watched the WWE in a few years, are the Usos considered a great team now? Last I paid attention they were just alright.

I'm more invested in the Lucha Bros, the YBs, and LAX than I've been in any WWE tag team since the Dudleys/Hardys/E&C era :yeshrug:

Go watch their shyt after their heel turn in 2016. Along with The New Day, they carried Smackdown in 2017, despite having preshow matches that wound up being match of the night. Fire promos and dope matches. Cokeboy moved them to Raw and ruined them. Another DUI from one of them didn't help.

Usos and New Day are better than all of AEW tag division themselves. Let alone Revival, AoP, Cesaro and whomever etc. AEW definitely lets theirs cook more/better. Hopefully that influences the E.

Breh, WWE's tag division is nuts. From main roster to NXT. Vince just doesn't give a fukk to showcase it.


youre combining four different divisions.

but even if you want to go that route, you can put their top 9 against AEW's 9 and they will fall short.

WWE's tag team divison would be the best part of their show if Cokeboy gave a damn about tag team wrestling. There's times where you won't even see the tag champs on the show at all. Can't have the tag team division outshine all their overpushed projects that the majority of fans are tired of.

I looked forward to The Revival versus The Usos for years and once it finally happened it was underwhelming and disappointing because of the booking.

Just look at all the NXT tag teams that were ruined on the main roster. I'm not saying AEW's tag team division isn't comparable but it would not be as close if WWE utilized their tag team division.

They’ve had two weeks of live programming :dahell:


Imagine if 25 years ago when The Panthers became a franchise someone saying “where does Carolina rank in regards to being the best franchise in NFL history?” After week 2

:dead:


Lmao


As someone rooting for AEW because WWE fukkin sucks, some of these overzealous TSC stans make this shyt damn near intolerable

Where does the AEW title stand as far as prestige goes? Only Hall of Fame quality talent has ever held it :blessed:

Is The Inner Circle top 5 Heel stable of all time :jbhmm:

Are the AEW Tag Titles the best looking titles in history :whoo:

a company that JUST is getting started up for the most part?


so fukking ridiculous

:dahell:

so we're not watching anything outside of AEW/WWE???

just because dynamite debuted 2 weeks ago, doesn't mean that anybody on their roster is new.

I was actually gonna make this thread weeks ago, when LAX popped up at ALL OUT, before dynamite even debuted on TNT.

realistically, the Usos are somewhere in the middle.

theyre great but theyre a top 10 current team at best.
theyre getting brownie points because theyre WWE.

I will say tho, that the WWE's teams are the best they've been since the early '90s.
better than the hardyz/dudleys/edge & Christian era.

I’m just saying give it time. Not every judgment has to be immediate :manny:
