With all due respect to the SmackDown tag team division, which is always great, it is not very high on the priority list. As I write this article, there isn't a SmackDown Tag Team Title match confirmed from SummerSlam right now.

This may change in the days that follow, but to the best of my knowledge, there will not be a SmackDown Tag Team Championship match at the second biggest show this year. Doesn't this pretty much signify the fact that Erick Rowan and Daniel Bryan would have gotten wasted in the tag team division?

Even if they're not draped in gold, they feel like they are a part of the main event scenario at the moment. This is a massive leap up for both men, but especially Erick Rowan who's hardly been in this spot in his career.
