#4 They won't have to constantly pair two singles Superstars together
One of WWE's answers to any questions raised about the tag team division has been to pair two singles competitors together. It's either because of necessity or to give some Superstars new direction. They've done it forever and will continue to do so.
If depth isn't an issue, then the necessity to bolster the division's depth would be moot. If injuries or departures are a problem, then it makes sense to pair two Superstars together in the tag team division. But SmackDown's current landscape is overrun by teams rather than Superstars in the singles division. Bryan and Gulak have an alliance but could feasibly be thrust into the tag team scene. Cesaro and Nakamura have been both singles competitors and tag team participants lately. With almost seven teams, they could be primarily featured in the mid-card.
RAW's tag team division is a little different with two teams featuring pairings of singles Superstars. AOP is currently a man down due to injury whereas the Viking Raiders and Street Profits have already won gold. Austin Theory and Angel Garza competed for the titles at WrestleMania 36, but were unsuccessful.
If depth is indeed an issue, then it makes perfect sense to pair two Superstars together. But as things sit on Friday nights, there are four teams that are comprised of singles competitors. Nakamura, Cesaro, Morrison, Miz, Bryan, Gulak, Ziggler and Robert Roode should be competition for singles gold. If the need arises, then form one team. But the entire mid-card on Friday nights is lacking due to an overabundance of tag teams.
