Whatever happened to creative tag team names?

[Peter Kaymakcian]

How'd we go from Motor City Machine Gus and Beer Money Inc. to just Daniels and Kash, Chavo Guerrero and Hernendez, and Kash and Gunner? Where are the creative tag team names that used to be there?

Agreed.When was the last time 2 geniune brothers or atleast ''brothers" where a top tag team in WWE or TNA?

[Cabers]

They stopped about the same time that creative stopped coming up with new storylines.

Why do tag teams have to be "related"? Just because people aren't related, doesn't mean they are thrown together. Besides the Hardyz, Edge and Christian and Dudleyz, are among the best "relative tag teams" that were a top team in WWE, and their names are hardly creative...
There's also Uso's, Epico and Primo; again not creative.

A lot more "non-relation" teams got names, compared to relative teams, that seem to just take the family name (or have each others first name). Hart Foundation and british bulldog were probably one of the few that actually got a name.

Anyway, to answer your question; for WWE it was the basham brothers and team 3d in TNA. (Uso's haven't won the belts so can't be the top team)

They just kind of threw guys together like they are doing now. Tattoo guys like Kash/Gunner; Hernandez/Chavo mexican history

They've always done that though. They've done that with the MCMG, Beer Money, and Ink Inc. It works if they have chemistry with one another (like Christopher Daniels and Kaz) but I don't see any chemistry with teams like Chavo and Hernandez along with Kash and Gunner which is why those teams are clicking for me.
