I always used to think of Cryme Tyme as to green to be anything more than a comedy act, but I actually think they're pretty decent tag workers at this stage of their career. The Highlanders also surprise me by putting on a good show whenever they are in there. It might be because tag team wrestling itself looks fresh whenever I see it these days, being the lost art it is in the WWE.
A serious gimmick for The Highlanders could make them mean a little more. Reveal that after they came over from Scotland several years ago, they trained in Canada under Fritz Von Erich, and their training was so intense they didn't have a time to familiarise themselves with Canadian/American culture. They're not brilliant in the ring, or anything, but I think they are surprisingly good workers, and I have a soft spot for any guys who use a variation of the reverse suplex.
In fact, I'd move both Cryme Tyme and The Highlanders over to SmackDown! and let them feud for the belts there. You'd also have Dave Taylor & Paul Burchill in the scene, which could lead to their skills getting polished.
But I agree that L&K, RWC and WGTT should be where the WWE plants its focus for the current RAW teams.
