The Heath Slater angle is nice, but the Usos turned heel for a reason

Regardless of the angle and the feel good story, I am sure my friend Sarah would agree that Jimmy and Jey Uso should have won the inaugural Smackdown Tag Team Titles. There was a reason for the heel turn by one of the more popular tag teams in some time. Yes, it was warranted, but there should have been a different ending and a way to keep Heath Slater on the roster.

Slater’s story is an example of how WWE has changed and has made storytelling a priority. I thought this would be a situation where Slater and Rhyno would continue in the company, but they would not win on Sunday night.

Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.

You can expect the Usos to get another shot at glory some point soon – potentially on Smackdown Live on Tuesday night. For now, the story of Slater is more important – but for continuity sake, he should have not won the title.
