According to WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, WWE undertook an initiative over the summer to enhance their tag team division. Sources indicate that a small group of staff members was tasked with brainstorming various talent pairings to potentially create new tag teams.

The report noted that there were no brand restrictions during this exercise, and participants were encouraged to “think outside the box” as they explored potential combinations. The goal was to revitalize a division that has been somewhat lacking in recent times.

While specific pairings were not disclosed, sources mentioned that Joe Hendry came up frequently in discussions. It remains unclear if any of these proposed combinations will actually become teams featured on WWE television.

Currently, the main roster tag team champions are Je’Von Evans and Penta on RAW, who won the World Tag Team Championship at WWE Crown Jewel, and MFT, who have held the WWE Tag Team Championship on SmackDown since August.
