seriously? i still dont get that booking. i think hawkins and ryder are alright, but they did nothing with the titles for the couple of months they had them, and carlito and primo don't really need them either. i just don't get why wwe ever took the straps off the hottest tag act in the company.
the only thinking i can come up with is so as not to overshadow santino's eventual long ic title run by having miz and morrison hold their belts for a really long time, but i personally doubt wwe thinks that far in advance (a month).

Because they don't realize a good thing when they have it.

I wish they had the tag title since they are still tagging.
I though they were going to make morrison go for the ecw title but now I hope miz and morrison get the world tag title in a triple threat with cryme tyme and team $less if they aren't going to be singles wrestlers.

For the same reason Matt lost the US to Shelton...to get the titles back on Smackdown since it's more of a Raw/ECW exchange instead of ECW/Smackdown.

But anyway..they should of just had Morrison/Miz drop the titles to Primo and Carlito instead of giving the titles to those two jabroni's.

I reckon the mentioned reason of so SD had the title back is right. Otherwise they should still be tag champs but now they are in an awkward position as priceless are being pushed with the title so miz and morrison cant get them really.

Eh, I like Primo and Carlito. I'm a schmuck that likes when Tag Teams look similiar and the fact that they are actual brothers is cool.

It's odd but at the same time the points made above are accurate and once wwe took those points into their heads they weren't going to think about their best tag team because they are more blind than a bat. I think the feud between Cryme Tyme & Miz/Morrison is building up great, if they take their time with it and eventually find a place for belts to be involved it will be a great match at the climax of the feud.

I actually like Car-primo having the Tag Titles. Miz and Morrison are on ECW why did they have the Smackdown Tag Team Championships? As much as I fully enjoy Miz & Morrison they don't need Tag belts to be over

I'd imagine it was a somewhat random decision based on a couple of factors:
The Smackdown/ECW thing shifting to Raw/ECW (which didn't actually happen until recently). Miz and Morrison have developed enough personality to not need the belts. Hawkins and Ryder desperately needed something to separate them from "generic Edge rip-offs." Although winning the belts did zero for them on that front.

see the "miz and morrison don't need the belts" reasoning makes sense, but i would counter that by saying the belts NEED miz and morrison. i mean edge and christian were over without the titles but whenever they didnt have them in 2000 it just felt...wrong. because they were THE tag team. and i think miz and morrison are THE team in WWE today.

I don't think Miz and Morrison are as central as E&C were back in the day - and I can't fault WWE for switching the titles to try and "make" another team. I can fault them for doing absolutely nothing with that other team after switching the titles, though.

The better Question is : Why did they put them ON the Edgeheads?

Maybe WWE want Miz and Morrison to have multiple tag title reigns and the only way to do this is to obviously have them lose and regain them.

It was an unfortunate byproduct of the Talent Exchange's brand switch.

It was an unfortunate byproduct of the Talent Exchange's brand switch. After Rey left the hispanic ratings dropped so they put the tag tiltes on a team was hispanic.
