The Usos Initiative

When we say Us, Y’all say O! The WWE Tag Champs are red-hot, let the streak live on!

 

They’re never in a position where they’re not entertaining and now they are the WWE Tag Team Champions at long last.

Fans and dirtsheets alike heralded the Rhodes brothers for reigniting the tag division after the golden duo of team hell no went their separate ways but the true firestarters has got to be the Usos.

A close second to their work rate and entertainment factor would go to the now split Prime Time Players, Darren Young and Titus o Neal.
But the Usos are always entertaining and I find myself glued to their in-ring style.

Ignoring the family ties for a moment, they involve the crowd in almost every aspect of their arsenal and keep the crowd excited throughout with classic moves like the Samoan drop, super kicks aplenty and the top rope splash finisher which nearly always has a different mid-move taunt.

The boys are an excellent glance of what tag team wrestling should be and their lineage may be part of the reason why they seem so naturally charismatic and instantly likeable.

They are a part of the Anoi family tree.

As the sons of former star Rikishi, who in turn is a cousin to The Rock, it seems as though this family produces nothing but pure naturally gifted and naturally charasmatic superstars.

There are a few teams heading for splitsville that would make for a great series of matches against the tag champs, one such team being the real Americans. Let’s hope they get that chance.

But with that said, WWE today is impatient and would more than likely rush any rivalries with this great team in an attempt to fill the looming main event void that is coming in less than 3 years.

Ultimately with this fresh team having a root to their heritage in their entrance (a Samoan hake) blended with an upbeat intro theme which they genuinely seem to enjoy entering with (how often do you see that these days?) It’d be a fantastic opportunity for them to defeat any remaining teams and have themĀ  be seemingly undefeatable.

The lights go out and they are decimated by another team fresh outta NXT.

Enter The Ascension.
