What do you think about the Usos?
They're clearly capable of working great matches, but I just can't fully get into them. I don't know if it's the lame gimmick or what. I'm assuming the push is coming from the Total Divas show, but do you think it will continue on after that?
I remember enjoying their characters when they first debuted. They were basically saying that they were the anti-typical Samoans, and I thought that could have worked, but they didn't really get much of a chance to do anything with that. Now, they're...typical Samoans. Exactly what they were originally saying they didn't want to be, and it's very MEH. I'm rambling now. Say anything you want to about the Usos. |

I can watch them, but I don't get all pissy if they're not on the show.
It's pointless either way, coz whatever recent push they're getting now will either be given to another tag team soon enough, or will just vanish again after this recent attempt at a tag team resurgence dies down. |

I really like them. When WWE got more into social media I was able to see that they actually have really dope personalities. I wish they got more camera time, I'd be game for it.

Dispite what others say, they are over - or as over as a tag team can be in the current climate. The "We say Us"/"You say O" thing does get a reaction. However, much like Thrilla, I feel there is nothing to hook an audience into them, they have just become a slighly more modern version of the Wild Samoans.
Maybe they need to mention that they're Samoan a bit more? |

They're stuck with a horrible gimmick that stinks of the 90's, but like everyone has alluded to so far, they can wrestle.
With a total make-over and some consistent matches against strong opposition there's no reason why they couldn't be a draw. |

i've always enjoyed their matches and think they have a good look, i just haven't been given a reason to care. and total divas is still not a reason. if they can keep the momentum going and put them in a meaningful feud, i would have no problem supporting them. as it stands, i'm still waiting for more.

Decent tag team but suffer the same lack of real direction almost every team has because of the weak division.

I like them. They put on good matches. Of course, they are forever going to be stuck in a division that the WWE has treated as an afterthought for years.
I have noticed that they are getting more over with the crowd (probably due to them actually appearing on the main shows now). Before when they would do the "When we say U, ya'll say SO" thing and it would get like zero reaction. Now people actually do it. |

The Usos would get more heat if they had a more dramatic double team finisher such as Jimmy holding the opponent in a vertical suplex while Jey does a top-rope cross body (seeing how Jey tends to climb the ropes more often).

They should seriously turn into arrogant heels who smugly call out their catchphrase "Oooh-" (pause for boos) "-Sooohs!" similar to how 2003 heel Rock timed his speech.
The Usos can turn by criticizing Tons of Funk for "mocking the athleticism of our sport" with their "asinine dancing" and maybe mock them in a skit. Then, have a dance contest of Usos' haka or whatever their dance is called versus Brodus and Tensai getting funky. The latter obviously win the popularity contest but are destroyed by the Usos. They face at a PPV, and the Usos win by a hair! |

They're great in the ring. Other than that, meh. I was watching main event yesterday and was wondering when we'd see a double stink face come into play.

The way I see it, there is no tag division, so how can one evaluate this tag team as opposed to any other, which there are none.
Hmmm? |

Pretty much this. There's no direction with the division as a whole and I can't see them as anything other than jobbers which is a shame because I enjoy them.

The Pre-show match they had with the Shield at MITB was fantastic. They can go in the ring if given the time but that seems to be the problem with any Tag Team now, just not given the time to get over. One month they got a hot push, the next jobbing out on Main Event. Its tough to get behind that but if given a solid push could see them at least holding the Titles for a little bit.

Although I did enjoy their match with The Shield I think it was due to The Shield being awesome. I'll forever think of them as a poor man's Headshrinkers. Also think their splashes off the top rope are some of the ugliest moves I've ever seen.

If there was a legit tag division, they'd be a pretty fucking sweet addition. As it stands, they just exist in the wrong time. I wish to see them feud with Demolition or The Quebecers.

I like The Usos enough. They have good matches and personalities. I just don't care about them as much as I could, especially compared to other teams the WWE has. I'd like their interactions with The Real Americans to continue.

I've entertained the idea of Jack Swagger & Antonio Cesaro coming out with custom belts and declaring themselves "the United States Tag Team Champions." The Usos could get a US Tag Team Title reign before putting them on the line against the real Tag Team Champions and "unifying" the titles.
