WWE conducted an exercise over the summer to try and come up with teams to give their tag team division a boost. The report comes from WrestleVotes Radio On Fightful Select, who cite a source as saying that WWE put a small number of staff members on the task of coming up with different pairings of talent to potentially be used as new tag teams.
The report notes that per the sources, there were no brand restrictions in place for the matter and that those on the exercise were encouraged to “think outside the box” when exploring potential combinations. The goal was to try and bolster a division that has been somewhat lacking.
While specific combinations were not mentioned, the source noted that Joe Hendry was mentioned several times. It’s also not clear from the report if any of the combinations put together will end up becoming teams on WWE television.
The current main roster tag team champions are Je’Von Evans and Penta, who won the World Tag Team Championships at WWE Crown Jewel, and The MFTs who have held the WWE Tag Team Championships on Smackdown since August.
