Replying to the topic:

The Dudley's are old, but it's not entirely their fault. Frankly, for many months, they WERE the tag division. That's a key recipe for getting stale. If the division actually shifted around and incorporated a lot more teams, the Dudley's wouldn't be as tiresome, even if they used the same gimmick.

I agree that they're much better as destructive heels, but it seems like the WWE is afraid of doing stuff like putting women through tables or whatnot because they'll lose sponsors--this despite their whole attempt at trying to be edgy.

It's as though the company's lost touch with ingenuity. Sure, there are still some great angles (Jericho/Trish, Guerreros Civil War, HHH/HBK, Mick/Orton, John Cena, Benoit's chase), but there used to be a LOT more.
