WWE Raw Needs to Fix the Tag Team Division
WWE Raw’s Tag Team Division is severely lacking right now and they need to change things up and add teams and soon with Wrestlemania coming up just weeks away.
It has become apparent over the last few months that WWE Raw’s Tag Team Division is in dire need of help, lack of teams being on TV and the same few teams being used over and over. The New Day really need to change things up, they have been doing the same thing for awhile now and fans aren’t terribly excited to see them hold the titles again. While it is good that we have had some good title changes lately, with Cesaro and Sheamus capturing the gold and then Gallows and Anderson. But where to from here?
Raw needs new teams and for established teams to actually be used on TV, and they have enough talent to make this happen. Plus there are teams in NXT who could always be called up to help, and The Revival is the top of the list. The Revival would make sense on Smackdown, however, Raw is in real need of them and they would revitalize the division. The same three or four teams can’t fight in the division the entire time, and it gets stale very quickly. We haven’t seen any real tournaments or anything for the Raw teams in quite awhile and there isn’t any reason why it hasn’t happened.
Smackdown Live at least booked all of their teams in a big match for Elimination Chamber, and while it wasn’t the best in the world, each team was featured and had a shot. Some teams haven’t really worked as well as they should have on Raw, such as The Shining Stars and The Golden Truth is nowhere to be seen. But you have Bo Dallas who only just got used again on Raw, against a team with The New Day. Is there any reason he couldn’t be partnered up with someone else who isn’t being used? I can’t see why not, and then build that team up and make them an actual credible threat to the titles.
Enzo and Big Cass are extremely popular, but they haven’t had the impact on the division one might have thought after their call-up. Week after week it becomes more apparent that Big Cass needs to step out and become a singles competitor, which would leave Enzo without much but there is an option to team him elsewhere and make a comedy act, which creative loves. Big Cass needs to grow right now and Enzo is talented on the mic and could continue to do that with someone else.

Wrestlemania is not far away, and neither is the Raw brand exclusive PPV Fastlane. It is the perfect time to establish some new teams, use the ones they have and make some sort of tournament to get contenders. The titles right now don’t feel like they are worth anything, the titles changed hands on the Royal Rumble Preshow. This is not very smart booking, titles should always be defended on the main show and made to feel important. It is great to see Gallows and Anderson get their shot but nothing much has happened since then, make the titles feel worthy again. Smackdown Live has made their titles seem important and they have used their teams and made it a big deal. Raw you can do this, make it happen creative.
