Let me first start off by saying that I think all 4 teams involved in tag title matches this weekend are excellent. I love Ciampa/Gargano and New Day, and I also think highly of The Club and The Revival. These two matches just stick out to me from the weekend and show a huge problem with the main roster.
First start off with Ciampa/Gargano vs Revival. Amazing match, in every aspect. I'll go as far as to say it's the best tag team match I've ever seen. My opinion, please don't throw things at me. The story was simple. Revival were the champions, but before they won the titles they lost to Ciampa and Gargano. Revival wouldn't give them the match until they were forced into it and then it went down and Revival won with lots of heel shenanigans. Just two teams who desperately wanted to be tag team champions. Add in the other layer of the story with Ciampa and Gargano recently having faced off in the CWC and the full thing was magic. The crowd bought every false finish and was deflated when the heels won.
Now onto last night. To start with, the feud is stupid. The whole feud revolved around testicle jokes. Gallows and Anderson being made to look like jokes dressing up as doctors trying to get more "samples". I let it go because I assumed the match in the end would be good. And then out comes Jon Stewart. I'm not overly familiar with his career, I'm sure he's a funny guy and was good at what he did, but I don't want to see him at Summerslam. I don't care about him. And then the match was short and boring and led to Stewart interfering again before Big E came out for the save and the DQ. I like the moment Big E came out, it got a decent pop, but it was time for The Club to win the titles. I like both teams but the feud was dumb and done no one any favours. They've been shafted by Vince and his creative team and their love of childish humour. Gallows and Anderson are better than this. Hell, despite the humour they show every week, I even think New Day are above this garbage. In the end who even cared about the titles.
To sum up, one match was amazing and all about the titles and the other was stupid and all about ball jokes and shows exactly what is wrong with the main roster when we compare it to NXT. Rant over.
