Two Tag Team Title Matches, No Title Change: My Thoughts

A few weeks ago, The Miz & John Morrison defeated Carlito & Primo Colon to earn a Valentine's Day date with Brie & Nikki Bella.

Shortly after their date, they challenged The Colons for their WWE Tag Team Championships where if they won, they would become the Undisputed Tag Team Champions.

I figured, and wrote an article saying, that this was WWE's solution to the problem that is the Tag Team Division. I almost guaranteed that Miz & Morrison would walk away that night with both the WWE & World Tag Team Championships.

When I saw Primo take out The Miz on the outside of the ring, I knew it...I knew that I had predicted the future. I knew that Miz & Morrison would win the WWE Tag Team Championships.

Then it happened, Carlito hit the Backstabber on Morrison and won the match for himself and his younger brother.

With the way WWE has a habit of building up feuds and storylines just to drop them the next day, I had a feeling that this was the end of the feud between the two teams of Tag Team Champions. How delighted I was last week to find out I was wrong.

What I don't know if Miz & Morrison put up the challenge out of arrogance, or if The Colons wanted to prove that once wasn't a fluke. What I do know is that it was announced that the next week on SmackDown, Miz & Morrison would be defending the World Tag Team Championships against The Colons.

I was ecstatic, but confused at the same time. I kept saying to myself, "Does this mean that they're going to make The Colons Undisputed Tag Team Champions? I know they're over and they're a good tag team, but not that good."

So I waited until last night so I could find out. Well I wasn't able to record SmackDown, so I had to go online today to see what happened. I wasn't that surprised when I read that Miz & Morrison had retained their World Tag Team Championships.

So here we sit, let's look at what's transpired as of late:

- Both the WWE & World Tag Team Champions have been feuding in both singles and tag team matches.

- Miz & Morrison won a date with the Bella Twins for Valentine's

- The Colons successfully defended the WWE Tag Team Championships against Miz & Morrison

- Miz & Morrison successfully defended the World Tag Team Championships against The Colons

Now here we sit, they both have a successful Tag Team Title defense against the other. So who's better between the two?

Let's look at the four competitors accomplishments in the WWE one at a time, so we can get a better idea of who is the better tag team.

John Morrison

- Debuted in 2004

- Two time Intercontinental Champion

- Former ECW Champion

- Former four-time WWE Tag Team Champion

- As part of MNM, became the 1st Tag Team to win the WWE Tag Team Championships in their debut match

- As part of MNM, became the only team to win the WWE Tag Team Championships three times (in their rookie year)

- Two time Slammy Award Winner

- Current World Tag Team Champion

The Miz

- Debuted in 2006

- Former WWE Tag Team Champion

- Current World Tag Team Champion

- Two time Slammy Award Winner

Carlito (Caribbean Cool)

- Debuted in 2004

- Former United States Champion

- 1st person to ever win the U.S. Championship in his debut match (in the WWE, on SmackDown)

- Former Intercontinental Champion

- 1st person to ever win the Intercontinental Championship on their debut match (on RAW)

- 1st person to ever win the Intercontinental and United States Championships on their 1st night on each respected brand.

- Only the 2nd Puerto Rican to ever win the Intercontinental Championship, after Pedro Morales

Primo Colon

- Debuted August of 2008

- Current WWE Tag Team Champion

Carlito & Morrison are widely regarded and considered the better wrestler of their respective tag teams, and rightly so. Both men have been in the WWE for five years, while Primo & The Miz only have less than four years of experience in the WWE combined.

I like and respect both tag teams, but it doesn't really matter what we like, does it? It only matters what Vince thinks, and who knows what's going through that man's head these days, the way he's been keeping things under a tight lid.

I'm only batting .500 on my predictions for the tag team division, so I'm not gonna predict what's gonna happen next.

I previously predicted that unless they got better, Hawkins & Ryder would soon drop the WWE Tag Team titles. Two weeks later, they dropped the titles to The Colons.

What I can do is state what I want to happen, and here it is. Since both tag teams have gotten the upper hand on the other as of late, and the tag team division is still in need of improvement...I honestly do think that the WWE is going somewhere with this feud between the two teams.

So when I go to sleep, now and up until WrestleMania 25, I'll be dreaming of another Tag Team match where somebody's gold is on the line. Wait a minute...this is WrestleMania, the Grand Daddy of 'em all. We can't do the same old thing that was done the month before; well they COULD, but I'm hoping they won't.

I don't want to see a World Tag Team Championship match at WrestleMania. I also don't want to see a WWE Tag Team Championship match at WrestleMania.

"But wait a minute Dozer, I thought you said that you wanted to see somebody's gold on the line at WrestleMania? How can that happen if you don't want a WWE or World Tag Team Championship match?"

Quite simple, I want to see something that I haven't seen in years. Something nobody has seen in years. Something that hasn't happened since August 27, 2002. That was the day that Intercontinental Champion Rob Van Dam defeated the Hardcore Champion Tommy Dreamer to Unify the two titles and retire the Hardcore Championship.

I want to see a Title VS Title Match for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania, and I want John Morrison & The Miz to win that match. They should make it either a Tag Team Elimination Match or a 2 Out Of 3 Falls Match. This way there would be a clear cut and decisive winner.

You've seen my thoughts on the current stage of the tag team division...what are yours?
