The Kings of Wrestling - a solution to WWE's tag division stagnation?

It is clear. WWE's tag team division is not what it used to be. Since the glory days of the Smackdown Six (Benoit & Angle, Los Gurerros and Edge & Mysterio), something has been lacking. Many fans will also recall the days of the Dudleys, Edge & Christian and the Hardys.

Despite reports over the years of WWE refocussing on the division, nothing really came of it. The number of established teams was minimal. An exciting tag division can add real depth to the roster, and provide fans with variety.

There is now an interesting opportunity at hand. The Shield have been dominating the tag division over the last year. Harper and Rowan from the Wyatt family have been introduced. The Usos are getting a push it would seem.

Now could be the time to make the division into something special. Break Chris Hero (Kassius Ohno) out of developmental. Team him up with Antonio Cesaro. Re-kindle the magic that they had as the Kings of Wrestling. Yes, it is probably too much to ask for Vince to pay for Queen's 'We are the Champions'. Regardless, the Kings of Wrestling would be fresh and interesting. Battles with the Shield, the Usos and the Wyatts would make for good matches at least.
