So the Prime Time Players might be splitting
 
Vince is apparently very high on Titus and is looking to split them. This makes me cry. The writing was on the wall after the PTP did commentary during Team Hell No vs Rey/Cara and Titus shined while D Young looked terrible to the point where all three were ripping on him. This occured in November and I don't think they've won a match since then and haven't won much.

Anyways, I love both and think Titus could be big, but I hate teams splitting and I think Titus would get lost in the shuffle if they split anytime soon.

Corporate CockSnogger 02-05-2013 04:35 AM

Isn't Titus already in his later 30's or something? Think he definitely has a bunch of charisma but I'd prefer seeing them kept together. Especially since Hell No and Rhodes Scholars are going to be split up soon too.

Bad News Gertner 02-05-2013 04:40 AM

I agree. I think they'd be a huge success if they turned face. They are my favourite tag team in rasslin.

Shadrick 02-05-2013 06:19 AM

Mine too. Titus is a cool mofo as well

Not mine. Hornswoggle and Khali for life!

good. they make me cringe every time the hook their legs together and do that stupid "millions of dollars" shit.

Evil Vito 02-05-2013 07:23 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Every time they get close to having a decent tag division, they blow it up. Team Hell No are obviously building to a breakup and a match at Mania, Rhodes Scholars split up last week, and now PTP might be gone.</font> :(

you apparently don't like to be entertained sir.

and their legs?

ron the dial 02-05-2013 07:45 AM

i love being entertained. they just fail to do that. and yes, their legs. that stupid fucking dance they do. legs entwined, arms on shoulders, swooping motions.

Wish we could have Gertner tears without billions of dollars being wasted breaking up the PTP.

I am largely indiiferent to them but it's a pity because they'd probably get the belts by default soon.

Savio 02-05-2013 08:51 AM

It seems like if you can't hang with cole on commentary then you will get depushed.

The Condor 02-05-2013 09:58 AM

I'm one of the folks that doesn't like Black Cena, but Titus is good and has the type of power to do innovative move sets not unlike Cesaro or Ryback. I would like to see the team pushed but if they're hell bent on breaking them up at least they'll be pushing the right one as a singles performer. Seems unnecessary though with the tag division seemingly prepared to go off a cliff again after a good 5 months or so.

LOL, oh yes. This x100000000000

Ruien 02-05-2013 10:05 AM

Titus will be lost in the already crowded mid-card. Need to let him grow in the tag team division. Take Darren Young away and give him a new lackey and have Young trying to crawl his was back to Titus.

Keith 02-05-2013 10:06 AM

They should keep 'em together and have Booker T take them under his wing. Maybe even bring in Stevie Ray and have him talk to 'em on-camera so fans will be like "Oh shit, Harlem Heat is giving these dudes a rub".

Shadrick 02-05-2013 10:59 AM

Hey everyone likes different things. PTP are entertaining to me by how silly they are. Perhaps its because I get the humor and the antics a bit more, as well as the inside references being that I have a few things in common with them, but hey, who knows?

Shadrick 02-05-2013 11:03 AM

I don't see how anyone who watched PTP on Smackdown and their antics with Tamina, as well as their WWE.com backstage antics could not be entertained by them.

Keith 02-05-2013 11:04 AM

It seemed a lot more "organic" when Cryme Tyme acted like fools, as opposed to when the Prime Time Players do. It looks rehearsed.

Ultra Mantis 02-05-2013 11:17 AM

Darren Young is horrible so this makes sense.

Corporate CockSnogger 02-05-2013 11:21 AM

Darren Young was my 3rd round draft pick in the WWE Pool so he should go on a mean streak and squash Titus and everyone else ever except for everyone else in my team.

Cool King 02-05-2013 11:50 AM

I love The Prime Time Players, but I knew as soon as Titus was being amazing on commentary with Lawler and Cole that something like this would probably happen.

Darren Young just got ripped into that night from all three guys and it was clear as day that he was being outshined by Titus that night, who by the way has amazingly improved since his NXT days. From then on, Titus seemed like "the better one" of the two. Because before that night with Lawler and Cole and the washrag talk, I personally saw both guys as equals.

Now, Titus is running ahead and leaving Young behind. Titus always has the mic and does the talking for the team and if Young gets the mic, he just says one line, which is about a year old now and nobody really cares about it. In tag matches, Young is usually the one to take the fall, leaving Titus to look good. Titus even has a whistle and a washrag after that night, while Young still just has an afro pick.

It does seem like we're losing the good teams now. It's quite obvious that Team Hell No are imploding and with The Prime Time Players possibly disbanding, all the division will have left will be The Usos, Primo & Epico, Rey & Sin Cara and judging by recent events, Brodus Clay & Tensai. :-\

I guess you could count The Shield and 3MB, but they don't really compete in tag matches. Well, 3MB don't and The Shield have only ever had one match outside of NXT.

XL 02-05-2013 02:14 PM

Who'd have thought that Mr "Make It A Win" would be the one in the team with mic skills?

Honestly don't wanna see them split or the tag division fall into obscurity. Again.

Ain't nobody got time for dat

#1-norm-fan 02-05-2013 05:04 PM

The tag division revival already seems like it's on a downward spiral.

I was hoping they could turn the fact that Titus can riff so well while Young stands there awkwardly not speaking into part of the gimmick so the team could stick together.

Now they've become a jobber team like everyone who isn't directly in the title picture. Which is the problem the division had before the revival. Not a good sign.

CSL 02-05-2013 06:06 PM

well Darren Young is a bit rots, Titus has been "the star" of that team from day one

Emperor Smeat 02-05-2013 07:56 PM

:wavesad: "Millions of Dollars" dance

Figured PTP would be the ones to take the tag titles if Rhodes Scholars couldn't. Wouldn't be surprised if Rhodes Scholars splits before Team Hell No as well.

Corporate CockSnogger 02-05-2013 08:10 PM

Tag belts will probably end up going to Del Rio and Orton or whoever they plan to have as the WHC match at Wrestlemania or something like that. One of those team together despite being opponents deals, which would kill all momentum the tag division has built over the last year.

Mongo Lloyd 02-05-2013 08:22 PM

With Mark Henry and Jack Swagger back, aren't there enough single "big man" heels around right now?

Bad News Gertner 02-05-2013 11:12 PM

No. Never enough. Big man heels > vanilla midgets.

Curd 02-06-2013 02:38 AM

With PTP, Cara/Mysterio, and Team Hell No! heading towards break ups, and with Rhodes Scholars already dissolved, the question arises... Who will job to the Usos? The team of Ryder and Santino has already, but which other pairs?

Wishbone 02-06-2013 03:14 AM

I guess HHH's little experiment to beef up the tag division is over huh? This sucks pretty hard I was kinda getting into the Millions of dollars thing :\ Tag division was just starting to look up too what with Team Hell No taking on the Shield and the rise of Rhodes Scholars.
