Lot of Edge/Orton (series 10), Cena/Orton (series 8), Legacy (series 8) and both Hart Dynastys around here.
The Show-Miz and SES two-packs hung around for a long time, too.
I never bought MVP/Henry or Zeke/Kozlov, and I regret it now because I can't find either.

The 2 packs that are clogging the shelves is 2packs 8[?] Rhodes and DiBiase. At least 7 or 8 at Walmart, and 4 at TRU.

It seems there is always 1 or 2 sets in each series that won't sell around here. My Kmart has TONS of Morrison/Ziggler and Punk/Gallows sets left over from Christmas. Every Walmart and the only Target in the area is loaded with DiBiase/Rhodes from series 8. I'm starting to worry about finding series 10 when they finally hit retail because the stores are all overflowing with old stuff at the moment.

depends on the set. some of the selections are terrible. i think they need to do more like Jakks with lumping repaints in with manager or new figures so we're forced to buy them for the new one. its a smart marketing move.

The only places I've seen that are bad with the 2-packs are Walmart and Kmart. Other places just get a small handful of shelfwarmers. Kmart has an extensive amount of Jericho/Steamboat, a bunch of Orton/Cena and now Cody/Ted WM26 versions. Those sets simply aren't moving at all - and for awhile, DX was even warming there. That surprised me. Kmart's the only place I've found Basic 9 at so far though, so they're still getting new stuff in.
Walmart is full of Ted/Cody and especially Orton/Cena, and it looks like Sheamus/HHH from the recent Series 9 in next. Hart Dynasty and Christian/Heath sold great from that set, in my experience. I'm just glad some of the older sets are finally gone.

My Wal-Mart is always full of the newer Legacy 2 pack and both Hart Dynasty 2 packs. My Wal-Mart also has both Hart Dynasty 2 packs, but in my case there's one with Mattel figures in it and one with Jakks figures.

They never got Basic 8 though, or 7 now that I think about it. Hell the last Basic set I saw there was.......what the hell one was it? I don't even remember.

My stores are very similar. Nothing but a bunch of pegwarmers that are never going to be sold, thus decreasing my chances of finding 2-packs 9 and 10.
My closest Wal-Mart has: 3 series 8 Rhodes/Dibiase 3 series 1 Rhodes/Dibiase
Wal-Mart 2 has TONS of: Henry/MVP Gallows/Punk Miz/Show Cena/Orton Dibiase/Rhodes (series 8) Hardy/Khali Jericho/Steamboat
K-Mart has: 6 series 5 Jericho/Steamboat 1 series 1 Santino/Beth Phoenix
Target has nothing, and TRU is loaded with series 2, 5, 7, and the WM26 2-packs.

most of the stores around me are fully pegged out with old Two packs, I think its because they over order on certain series and not enough on others.
for example. every store i go to they are pegged out with Dibiase and Rhodes, Punk and Gallows, and Steamboat and Jericho. which are all diffrent series. but try to find a MVP/Henry, or a Slater/Christian and you wont.
its because they will order two or three cases of a series, and it wont sell, but the next series which would they wont pick up because they are still holding the previous
