#2 The problem: Weak tag team divisions on both Raw and SmackDown

There aren't enough tag teams on either show.
There aren't enough tag teams on either show.

The tag team divisions both Raw and SmackDown feature a number of marquee stars, including the Hardy Boyz, The New Day and the Usos.

But overall, both divisions lack the depth that is necessary to create compelling storylines week in and week out. SmackDown really has just three teams that are consistently featured (The New Day, Usos and Fashion Police) while Raw only has a few full-time teams as well, namely Sheamus and Cesaro.

With Jeff Hardy earning an Intercontinental title shot, The Revival's injury problems and the partnership between Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins likely to be a short-term thing, Raw, much like SmackDown, really doesn't have much of a tag team division at this point.

The solution: Create and/or reunite more tag teams

WWE seems to have begun its attempt to revitalize tag team wrestling, with Shelton Benjamin joining forces with Chad Gable and a temporary Shield reunion.

But there are only two realistic ways to sustain the tag team divisions on both Raw and SmackDown: WWE must either reunite old tag teams or form new ones. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan could potentially get back together while there are a number of overlooked midcard performers who could benefit from a tag team run.

Names like Tye Dillinger, Sami Zayn and Dolph Ziggler could form duos that would provide their respective show's tag team division with some much-needed depth and excitement.
