Also, as entertaining as London and Kendrick were as a tag team, this is about where the WWE stopped giving a fuck about the division. I mean, they had a great tandem look, entrance, and with the mask gimmick and everything, and creative couldn't even be assed enough to give them a name to market it with.
As far as TBK and Zeke, the relationship was kinda simbiotic. Aside from him getting the HBK/Nash type push, Kendrick's charisma and mic skills made up for Jackson's lack of them. Being "the man of few words" like in that Sun Tzu promo up there, kind of gave Zeke a mystique while hiding how green he was/is talking. Could have gave him time to work on that behind the scenes while paling around with TBK had Kendrick not pissed his opportunity away. It seems like in this case, he not only screwed over his own career, but Zeke's as well. Even now, he's not ready to stand on his own. He's just big, generic black guy #432... and guys need more than to just be another Ahmed Johnson in the looks department to stay relevant.
