One of The Revival/FTR's biggest criticisms of WWE was the fact that they put little to no effort into the Tag Team divisions - openly stating that the Tag Team titles "mean nothing". Unfortunately, the lack of effort in the tag team division is seen - but more so on RAW than SmackDown.

On RAW, they have just two teams actively competing, with Andrade and Angel Garza now entering the mix for more names. On WWE SmackDown, The New Day, as always, are the central figures while The Miz and John Morrison are the #2 team or the top heel team.

Lucha House Party has somewhat benefited from the lack of names as they're now getting consistent screen-time. The other team on the list should have been The Forgotten Sons, but a controversially-timed tweet by member Jaxson Ryker has affected the push of all three WWE Superstars.

As a result, a few reports stated that Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura have replaced them. Despite losing in their 8-man tag team match, they seem to be the next in line for the titles.
