The Usos Or The Rhodes: Who Should Get The Tag Titles?



It was either talk about the tag titles or Jinder Mahal and his fancy flute. At the risk of starting a riot among rabid Jinder Mahal fans, I'll go with the tag titles.

The Shield have The Usos in the title hunt. However, they also have some storyline issues with The Rhodes, Cody and Goldust. The corporate regime has been tormenting Cody and his family. How likely is it that The Rhodes win the tag titles? But what about The Usos? Which team should end the title reign of The Shield out of these two?

The Usos have been pushed very well in the last few months. They have gotten over and are obviously exciting to watch. They have also already faced The Shield for the tag titles. Does this mean that they are closing in on the tag titles? Or that the WWE never plans to give it to them and are just using them to build up The Shield's momentum with some successful title defenses? How many times did Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes fail to win the tag titles from Kane and Daniel Bryan?

The big thing The Rhodes have on their side is that this storyline just seems made for them to win the tag titles. They can be seen as greater storyline enemies to the corporate regime than The Usos. They have been bullied more than The Usos. What better "feel good" moment than to have them get the tag titles?

Which team do I think will win the titles? Which team do I want to win the titles? The answer to both questions is the same, The Rhodes. If either of these two teams will do it, it should be them. The storyline just makes you want to see them do it and it might make more sense for a team with their credibility to knock off The Shield, not The Usos. That is not to take anything away from The Usos. Down the line, when the tag titles aren't tied into a major storyline like now, they should get the titles. I usually want to see real teams like The Usos get the titles instead of these teams of guys who should be getting singles pushes getting it, like Kane and Daniel Bryan, but this storyline could really lead to a great moment with The Rhodes.
