#3 Stables not part of prominent storylines

AEW has done an exceptional job in building up stables and has even given them enough screen-time, but the problem is that none of them have had an impact on the show. These stables deliver every time they step into the ring, but that is all they do. Instead of plotting memorable storylines around these groups, the company instead chooses to go forward with short-term programs that ultimately culminate in a multi-person tag match on an episode of Dynamite.

The Elite, Jurassic Express, Best Friends and Orange Cassidy have all been at odds with The Inner Circle, but there has been no blow-off match to these feuds. Sure, there was the Stadium Stampede match that pitted The Elite against The Inner Circle, but a lot of fans were excited for the match because of the talent involved, and not the story surrounding them.

The result is that even though AEW boasts a plethora of factions that are capable of main-eventing any PPV, the tag division of the company is lacking fire. The tag team champions being a makeshift team doesn't help things either.

Perhaps AEW should consider introducing the 6-man tag team championships, even if it leads to replacing the current tag titles. That way, not only do these stables get something to fight for, but it also allows AEW to show that they really are different from WWE.
