I think just for fun since Angle and Lesnar are both heels, after WM 20, instead of chasing after Eddie each to be fed to him sooner (which shouldn't happen yet), they should be buddy buddies again and team up and win the WWE Tag Team Championship for something to do in the early midyear. You could say this could be 2004's version of "Power Trip". Not only would it help revive the division, but it should encourage WWE to make up some new tag pairs.

Two men who feuded for 11 months have no business teaming.

How would that revive the tag division?

Fuck logic. WWE does that enogh times. I would just like to see the possible workrate take place.

Because since they're big names who would kill the competition, this would cause X Tag Team to chase after them since its more meaningful. For example, if TWGTT wanted their proves that they really are TWGTT, they could go after Angle / Lesnar to get the belts back.

Austin and HHH holding the tag titles didn't exactly revitalize the tag division. Why would this be any different?

You forget what company we're talking about.
No I didn't.

It didn't need to be revitalized then.

 

I don't understand why anyone would discuss/argue/debate this with a person who says "fuck logic". You can't reason with someone who denies reason.

 

Because WWE is guilty of fucking logic plenty of times. For my angle to work and I would like to, it would have to require a fuck of logic, but I don't care because I know something good would come out of it.

And that excuses it, how, exactly?

Because they did it before and they're gonna do it again. So if something illogical happens and it will, you shouldn't be surprised.

Who said it would surprise me?

 

Expected, unexpected, whatever, the very IDEA of two men who feuded tooth and nail over the World title for close to a year, and then both of them continued to focus on the world title after their feud, would both suddenly and randomly give up their persuit of the world title to team up with each other and chase the tag titles makes my head hurt.

You rather see them get their credibility killed / kill Eddie's heat?

But AS, who cares about the details of the storyline, they will have great workrate!!!!!!!!!!!! The ends damn sure justify the means here. WORKRATE!!! Who cares if it's surrounded by a illogical, nonsensical, moronic storyline? WORKRATE!!!!!! Why, Brock/Angle was the Feud of the Year for 2003 and it didn't make a lick of sense! WORKRATE!!!!!!

Hey, that's what counts in the end. ;)

Win or lose to Eddie at Judgment Day.

Neither one has to happen.

 

And dropping down to chase a midcard title is more of a cred killer.

Yeah, that's true, but I'm guessing they'll have Angle or Lesnar chase after Eddie.

I can see where you're coming from, but in my mind, it just gives them something to do in the meantime since nobody reallys care Backlash, JD, Bad Blood, etc. the 2nd rate mediocre throwaway PPVs. I would save Brock / Eddie II, Kurt / Eddie II for Vengeance or SummerSlam, save it for the much bigger scale where it matters more.

Big Show. Eddie's WWE title push has been sold as "rolling over" former champions.

Losing to the same guy two PPV's in a row would fuck them up a little.

And how, exactly are we gonna buy the two guys that just jobbed the tag titles as a world title threat?

Because it would show Eddie's wins weren't flukes.

That's a reasonable enough argument, but as you pointed out, having Angle and Lesnar job the tag titles would be even more damaging. Call it the lesser of two evils, if you will.

And jobbing the tag titles to Haas & Benjamin wouldn't kill their credibility?

I wouldn't do either.

 

I'd give them both designated job boys so it looks like all three are on a collision course.

I don't know how I forgot about him, but I did. I actually would like Big Show / Eddie Guerrero II to happen at JD. I don't know how the rest of the board feels, but I'm all up for it.

Well, it worked for Kurt before. All it took was one match to get him back in the main event picture.

No, Angle made it to the ME in spite of that tag run, not because of it.

I like the idea of Brock/Angle as tag champs if they get to work with TWGTT. But like everyone else, it wouldn't make sense. Let Angle continue on with Eddie and let Brock and Big Show destroy the tag division until TWGTT makes the huge upset and beats them for the titles. The next month or two after Mania is usually just filler until Summer anyway.

 

Aw, fuck it! WWE will pull the ultimate swerve and send Triple H to SD after Mania where he'll beat them all for the next two years... including Edge.
