#1. The repackaged Revival
The Revival was released by WWE earlier this year, but it could be argued that the duo of Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder was one of the best tag teams in the company for a long time.
Despite the fact that The Revival already had a fantastic gimmick with their "no flips just fists" moto, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon reportedly had an idea to change their appearance, music, and entire gimmick.

Dawson and Wilder spoke about the suggested gimmick change during their appearance on the former WWE Champion Chris Jericho's podcast:
“Vince hands us these [designs]. I’ll put my hand on the bible and tell you, I laughed out loud in front of everybody. It was me, [Harwood], Vince [McMahon], Bruce Prichard, and [Mark] Carano. They were all serious and started telling us why it would be a good idea. They talked about the Ucey Hot and back shaving stuff where we showed we can do more than be serious, straight-faced ass-kickers. We could show different sides and different levels of charisma, which we never got a chance to do, even though we asked a lot."
The Revival clarified that they agreed to portray these new characters to the best of their abilities, but only until their contracts expired.
