I’m inclined to agree largely with Noid’s assessment that WWE tag division > than most right now, however, that’s the issue; it’s going great guns right now, but precedent suggests it won’t last. Which then becomes an issue with people committing to it. I suffer from this myself. Everything good in WWE I’m just waiting for them to misstep/fuck it up/scrap it entirely because that’s pretty much their modus operandi at this point. You don’t get the “benefit of the doubt” until you earn it, and WWE have a lot of making up to do in that department for a lot of people.

Oh, it could definitely be better. But what other tag team division can hold a candle to it? Things will get emphasized differently over time in wrestling. There will almost definitely be lulls in WWE’s tag division again. But that doesn’t necessarily come from a place of malice or an internet fan wrestling trope either.
WWE seem to hum at a level of adequacy that a lot of promotions haven’t even earned in the first place. It’s fair if you’ve decided you aren’t going to trust WWE anymore. But it’s sad because there isn’t really an alternative that can bat on their level.
