It seems not everyone enjoys the tag title unification.
Last week on SmackDown we saw a tag title unification match between The Usos and RK-Bro, which was won by The Bloodline thanks to an assist from Roman Reigns. Following the match, The Bloodline would dismantle RK-Bro, leaving them laid out to end the episode of SmackDOwn.
While speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T talked about WWE unifying the tag team titles. Booker T criticized the company for their decision and explained his reasoning.
“For me, I like having at least two tag team belts, one on SmackDown and one on RAW. [Booker T was then asked by host Brad Gilmore if there are enough teams on both divisions] There probably will not be enough teams but it could still give those tag teams the initiative to become tag team champion. Taking away one tag team championship and making it to where everybody got to work towards that one. Is that something’s that possible? Yeah, I think so. Honestly, I think it’s going to make it whole lot harder. Just say, for instance, we do create more tag teams, then what are we going to we do? Bring the tag team championships back?”
“And then what it does also is make those guys work more. They have to work on Monday night and Friday night, and they may have to work on the weekend as well.”
