It’s no big secret that WWE’s tag team division has been lackluster for some time as it seems to be one of the divisions that gets the least amount of attention when it comes to creative. However, the division could potentially be getting a refresh in the future.
WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select is reporting that over the summer WWE tasked a handful of staff members with coming up with different combinations of superstars to form potential tag teams.
When it came to the idea it’s being said that there were no brand restrictions in place for the pitched teams. Those involved with the exercise were encouraged to think outside the box and explore different possibilities. The idea was to hopefully bolster a somewhat lacking tag team division.
According to a source who spoke on the subject, Joe Hendry was one of the names who was mentioned numerous times. It’s not clear who Hendry could potentially be paired with, or if WWE will move forward with the idea of putting him in the tag team division, but the idea was discussed.
There was a lot of hype behind Joe Hendry in recent years leading up to him signing with WWE. However, since joining the main roster the former NXT Champion has been used inconsistently. He last appeared on WWE programming when he got squashed by Bronson Reed on the 10/26 episode of Main Event.
