WWE has had very disappointing Tag Team Champions in the past.

This definitely happened. It wasn’t good, but it happened.

From 2003 into early 2005 the French Canadian tag team, which became a trio in 2004, stunk up the joint in a lot of bad matches. They were not the most experienced group, with the exception of the addition of Rob Conway, who was a very good wrestler, and their matches proved that.
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
They got a lot of “heat” from the American crowds for being an anti-USA team, which is why WWE gave them the titles in the first place, but that doesn’t mean it was a good idea.

The team held the titles on three separate occasions, once with Rene Dupree and Sylvan Grenier and twice with Grenier and Rob Conway (even though he isn’t a Canadian). They never really got much of a reaction from the crowd during their sub-par performances inside the ring, rather only during their anti-USA promos.
Having teams like this is a long-standing pro wrestling tradition, but it’s usually best when they can wrestle.

About the author
Nicholas A. Marsico
I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.
I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
