#3 Losses damaged their credibility

Following two months of build-up and vignettes, SAnitY finally competed in their first main-roster match as a trio when they faced The Usos and Jeff Hardy in a six-man tag match on SmackDown Live in June 2018.

The new recruits were surprisingly defeated by the makeshift trio and they only went on to win just two matches together over the next 10 months, with their only 3-on-3 victory coming at Extreme Rules 2018 when they defeated The New Day in a tables match on the kickoff show. Their only other win took place in a 10-on-10 match at Survivor Series, but they were eliminated before the end.

In amongst those rare victories were long spells of not being featured on television, as well as sporadic losses against the likes of The Usos, The Club and The New Day, while all three men were defeated by The Miz in a handicap match recently.

Simply put, one of the most dominant factions in NXT history turned out to be just another weak main-roster tag team, so perhaps WWE decided that their loss in credibility over the last year was going to be too difficult to rectify if they kept the trio together.
