#2 Avoiding monotony in the SmackDown tag team division
Big E pinned The Miz to reclaim the SmackDown Tag Team Championships for The New Day in a title change that certainly surprised many. There's no denying just how good The New Day are. Their popularity within the WWE Universe is what has made their gimmick stable over all these years.

Nobody's denying the legacy of these two teams, but the SmackDown tag team division could certainly do with new pacesetters.

Miz & Morrison very much feel like a breath of fresh air. The Miz's mic skills makes up for incredible Miz TV segments and the duo's wrestling ability almost guarantees you a good match whenever they step inside a ring. Thus, it would've made much more sense to keep the titles on them for a while.
