Rumors have been swirling that as Triple H gains more power in WWE, he is looking to push the tag team division more and keep the divas away more. Wrestlezone.com recently reported the following:
“The Wrestling Observer Reporter is reporting those close to Triple H feel as he gains more power in the company—expect more tag team wrestling and less female wrestling.
Reportedly, Triple H has never been high on women’s wrestling. He feels a solid tag team division is very valuable.
While there have been females added to WWE’s developmental as of late, many are expecting Triple H to focus on having a few solid workers in the Divas division and keeping the attention on them.
The days of signing female talents from modeling agenicies and magazines are said to be gone. This is something that took place under the reign of John Laurinaitis in charge of the talent and Triple H is determined to move as far away from that as possible.”
Seth’s Opinion
What is the term for beyond happy? Whatever term you want to use, that’s what I am! On my own blog, I have discussed the need for more real tag teams. I have also discussed how the women in wrestling needs a change. I could not agree more with HHH to have the divas division be small with some quality wrestlers. The rest of the women in WWE can be valets, managers or some other non-wrestling role. Although Triple H’s career has almost entirely seen him as a singles competitor, it is great to see that he sees the value in a tag team division. There used to be so many REAL quality tag teams in WWE and hopefully this is a sign that there will be one again in the future. Triple H has received a lot of criticism with some of his moves, such as signing Sin Cara. The push for a tag team division would see a lot of people feeling better about Triple H gaining more power in WWE. What do you think? Would you like to see a push in the tag team division? Would you like to see even less from the divas? Please share your thoughts!

It would be great to see Tag Team Wrestling utilized in WWE again.

I think tag team wrestling could use a shake-up.
Maybe use only 3-man teams?
There would have to be at least three teams in a match?
All tag team title matches have to be Ladder Matches?
It just seems like we’ve seen just about all the tag team formula can offer. Perhaps thinking outside the box will give it some spark?

With the need to build new stars so at the forefront of WWE’s long term planning, bringing back a solid tag division just seems like a must. They get the chance to bring more young talent through in these teams, get them used to be on TV on a regular basis and if they don’t click immediately with the audience there is a chance to give them more time in a team than if they were singles.
Considering that guys like HBK, Austin, Edge. Jeff Hardy to name but four cut their teeth in tag teams before becoming big single stars, the track record would seem to be there. Plus having great tag matches on the shows helps break up the cards and give them a better flow. Now if they could get enough good teams together to a tag tournament with the winners getting a shot at the Titles, then I would be a happy man.

I personally would not be a fan of three man teams. Also, I love your response mfxduckman. A lot of superstars got started in a tag team and it definitely differentiates the card.

I’m happy with this as well. It’s good for small companies like myself who want to bring real female wrestling, sexy, with non-scripted outcomes further into the mainstream. The further they delay at the WWE the better it is for us.
