#4 They were getting stale as a tag team
The Bar came together when former WWE RAW GM Mick Foley rewarded them with a shot at the RAW Tag Team title after their 3-3 tie in the seven-match series. They've come a long way since then, becoming five-time tag team champions (4 RAW Tag Team titles and 1 SmackDown Tag Team title), and putting on great matches, consistently.
But, The Bar, who have been heels throughout their run as a tag team, were getting a little stale as a tag team. While it would be harsh to blame them for becoming a little boring on SmackDown Live as WWE have neglected the tag team division, something had to be done to revive both Superstars' careers.
Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?
Both Sheamus and Cesaro are immensely talented in the ring and they still have a lot to offer as singles Superstars!
