WWE has had very disappointing Tag Team Champions in the past.
#5 Charlie Haas and Rico

This was a very weak point for the tag team division.

They held the belts for two months in 2004, shortly after Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin were broken up by the brand split. Shelton went on to defeat Triple H on RAW, and Charlie went on to partner with Rico and his soon-to-be wife Jackie Gayda.
In another nod to how weak the tag team division was, they won the titles very shortly after becoming a team and defended them against the likes of the reunited partial team of Almost Too Cool, Rikishi and Scotty II Hotty. That’s another team that shouldn’t have existed at all.
In any event, it was a bumbling error, they lost the titles to the Dudley Boyz after a short stint, and were broken up as a team almost immediately. SmackDown had a rough period in the spring and summer of 2004.

About the author
Nicholas A. Marsico
I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.
I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
