Reciently the WWE has been trying to add more to it's tag team division, so take some wrestlers on the active roster (or some in FCW) and add a few more teams to the tag team division.

Micheal Tarver & Skip Shefield (RAW)- They both have that "bully" chacter to them. Let Skip do the talking and have Tarver stand there in his bandana.

Heath Slater & Justin Gabriel (Smackdown)- I was actually plesantly suprised at how good Heath Slater looked in NXT. They could be a high energy/ high risk team.

Percy Watson & "Generic Angry Big Man" (Smackdown)- I enjoy watching Percy Watson in small doses. There are a few big men in FCW (Jackson Andrews, Big E Langston, Joe Doering) that could pull off the odd couple with Percy

There's one I can think of right off the top of my head...

Gallows & Mercury - Once Mercury actually unmasks and becomes a legit part of the roster, pair the two together and have them get a go with the Unified Tag Team Titles. Think of it as a ticket to get the SES on two shows.

Heath Slater & Vance Archer - use Slater's "One-Man Rock Band" Deal and Archer can be his "Roadie," chanelling his gimmick in TNA in The Rock & Rave Infection

Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins - pair them together with Ryder's new gimmick..... have them wear the same one leg tights, only with the opposite legs long so that the stupid marks can tell them apart

Carlito & Primo Colon - rehire Carlito.... 'nuff said......

As the old adage goes, "Too many lemons leads to a lemon party."

Mean Gene Snitsky and nasty Mike Knox a.k.a. mean and nasty.make them a throwback tag team like warlord-barbarian or demolition.

These would require some brand swapping:

Sheamus and Drew Mac
Evan Bourne and Rey Mysterio
Cody Rhodes and Goldust(w/ Dusty Rhodes as manager)

Sheamus and Drew Mac
Cody Rhodes and Goldust(w/ Dusty Rhodes as manager)

I could see the Sheamus/Drew Mac one happening sometime in the future.

And I've been waiting for anything to happen with Cody Rhodes and Goldust, whether it be tag team or long hardcore fued, but it seems like the the WWE doesn't want anything to do with that or else they would have done it already.

Hopefully soon...

Justin Gabriel & Matt Hardy - I liked how they did modified Hardy Boys moves during the 1st season of NXT.

Even Bourne and Justin Gabriel.

I like that idea. Only problem is they need a mouthpiece.

These guys have worked as partners on Superstars and gone over Goldust & Yoshi Tatsu twice, but I really liked how Zack Ryder & Primo meshed. They don't need matching characters, or anything. Have them explain themselves as wanting to be partners because they have been Tag Team Champions in the past, and consider themselves professionals who just work well together. They can do the occasional bit where they both hit on a Diva, and maybe Primo can change his attire to something less awful and more flashy to go with Ryder's style, but for the most part just let them be cocky assholes who team well together.

The idea of them winning the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship and then bumping into Curt Hawkins & Vance Archer is interesting. Perhaps Ryder could even turn on Primo, and you have Ryder/Hawkins back together. Archer could also feel betrayed, so he and Primo team up to get revenge on them.

Bring up Los Aviadores from FCW and stick them on SmackDown!. They need a proper face team. Husky Harris can bring his brother up and they can be The Rotundos. Yoshi Tatsu & Goldust can make their team permanent. Hell, maybe even have Finlay end up on RAW and team with William Regal?
