| The tag division fell apart when they split brands. Plain and simple. Not enough wrestlers to justify tag teams.
I am not saying it was correct, but that has to be what they were thinking.
Vince went through a phase after the Rock and Austin got hurt where he was looking for his next diamond in the rough, but you see, those diamonds always surface on their own. You can't go digging for them.
I have stated so many times before that many of todays and yesterdays "best" wrestlers are former stablemates or tag partners in a sucessful tag team.
I also have read reports that the Smackdown roster was sick and tired of Melina and Nitro's backstage behavior. Apparently they are always together and do lots of PDA backstage annoying alot of the wrestlers. So now Mercury, not wanting the heat that Melina and Nitro are feeling looked to distance himself from them.
I really see Nitro and Melina ending up on Raw tonight. Melina is a great addition to the womens roster and Nitro can jump right into the IC race. |
