    I sort of view them as the female equivalent of the Miz. They're not great workers per say... but they are entertaining and they are over. And I do think they appreciate just being there... that's always nice to see.

    Plus, as arguably the only real womans tag team they probably should be the backbone of the division.

    I can agree with that, I do think Peyton is the better in ring performer but what they do seems to work

    I also enjoy them bothering Johnny Gargano when they can

    I always thought putting the tag titles on them was basically the same as if The world title had been put on Barry Horowitz.

    Eh, Alicia Fox and Dana Brooke getting the straps would be more comparable to Horowitz winning a world title, lol.

    Apt comparison! Speaking of Brooke she's reportedly being considered to be Naomi's partner.

    hmm, maybe she shouldn't have won then. or you know if they hadn't killed asuka to put the title on her in the 1st place.

    But the booking logic still stands. New champ beats old champ, then movies on. Its' done more of the new champ than anything else, to show it's not a fluke win or anything like that. Since Charlotte wasn't pinned or submitted when she lost the belt, it probably makes even more sense.
    she didn't have to be pinned or submitted to lose that match, that's just how triple threat matches work.

    Sure. I'm just saying it doesn't hurt the new champ to pin or submit a previous champ that they won the title off of without doing that, because the previous champ will try and hold it over them. New champ beats them, previous champ can't hold it over them, and then New chamo moves on. Its not necessary booking wise, but theres a logic too it.

    i actually agree, but a few things to consider 1)not hurting the champ is NOT an accomplishment 2)just because it makes sense doesn't mean it's actually good(in general of for the champ/title) 3)they booked themselves into this corner.


    the iconics make me laugh so i like them but bad choice for champs when the titles aren't really established. might be able to buy into the whole "a real team can win even if their opponents are better singles competitors" but WWE have beaten us over the head with the opposite message too many times.

    Depends how you define good I guess. As far as the match goes, it'll probably be as good or better than any other person you could put Becky in there with.

    And as far as being good for Becky and the title, I think actually pinning or getting Charlotte to submit when she didn't do that at WM is probably better for Becky than not doing it. I won't go so far as to say it's necessary, but it caps that whole thing off in a more conclusive manner.

    Not just that, they're extending his contract by saying that his time injured didn't count

    With the injury time that means Harper is under contract until next WrestleMania. Such a dick move.
