Apathy’s a Tragedy & Boredom is a Crime
I loved this team, one of my favorites of the 00’s. They came during an era that was extremely weak for tag teams, atleast as far as WWE was concerned. One of those thrown together teams where everything just clicked, their chemistry was off the charts. The Dirt Sheet Show they had on WWE.com was not only very entertaining but very ahead of its time, it wouldn’t be out of place in this YouTube/Network centric era.
The flip side to it being a weak era for teams meant that they didn’t really have any teams to bounce off of or rival with of note, the way the TLC trio had each other in the past, or the New Day/Usos/Bar do today. The most notable matches I remember them having were against nostalgia teams like DX or the Hardyz, or thrown together teams like Shannon Moore & Jimmy Yang. To their credit though, I remember Miz & Morrison being real workhorses, as it wouldn’t be unusual to see them work RAW, ECW, and SD all in the same week. And you can credit the team for pretty much saving Miz’s WWE career, as well as giving him the springboard for his solo push that would eventually nab him the WWE title & WM main event.

I came in here to write a lot but you saved me some time
basically exactly what I felt about them, though I'll give them a 7. They were definitely standouts during a very weak era for tag teams but that's not a slight on them. They were very talented and had excellent chemistry as a team, and that team most definitely saved Miz. I just never thought that (WWE wise) that Miz would be the "HBK" and Morrison would be Jannetty.
