Imagine tag teams headlining and drawing like Fabulous Kangaroos, Antonino Rocca and Miguel Pérez, Graham Brothers, Tolos Brothers and Don Curtis and Mark Lewin.
You'd think that given the shift in how Vince McMahon wants his stars to presented, tag team wrestling would have made more of a comeback. I suppose he does occasionally put a super-team together and did run with DX and tried a tag team main event in 2011. And there was The Shield. But with the WWE brand being the most important thing to Vince when it comes to drawing, I'm surprised he hasn't pushed a tag team as the centerpiece of a show, so he can have more stars, as he defines them.
