Double Talk Dave on why American Alpha should be WWE Tag Champs over the New Day

[Lord Scion]

Meltzer: "American Alpha is a phenomenal team. When I see them in squash matches they are great. They should be the world tag team champions on the main roster today. I mean, fukk the New Day. I mean, the New Day should be in like the comedy match.The belts don't really matter in their case. American Alpha could be second from top on PPVs against real good heel teams and be effective as hell."

 

[Riley Escobar]

Don't see anything wrong with that aside from the "fukk the New Day" line but no doubt people are gonna get heated over this

I agree in the sense that i think American Alpha could legitimize the belts and have them headline Raws/PPVs with the proper booking, but i don't think they're anywhere near as over as Enzo & Cass are. I also think the Dudleys and the Bullet Club could have as well but they're booked like shyt. None of that matters if two things don't happen:

1. Tag team booking has to get better
2. Get rid of those ugly ass belts

I agree, but more importantly, I see Jason Jordan being a real star going forward, maybe even Rock level. My nikka JJ need to ditch that vanilla midget tagging along

He doesn't have 1/10th of the charisma that Rock has. The best comparison for Jordan would be a Shelton Benjamin with more personality. I know that Triple H likes him a lot so he has that working in his favor.

He was trash on his own

Okay, put AA in 15-20 minute tags on Raw every week and see how many people tune out. AA works because NXT is an hour and the only have long tag matches every 2-4 months at Takeover instead of every week on TV. A month in Dave would be complaining about them doing the same match and how their 2 commercial break matches are too long and making people change the channel. There is no way Dave can really think AA would be better for business than the hottest mid card act in a decade.

New Day you can send out to do literally anything. Singles, tags, six man tags, 20 minute promos, straight comedy, Southern tags, commentary, merch shilling, product placements....AA can go out and wrestle for 20 minutes very well.

he wasn't given a direction or character on his own

He was in FCW/NXT 4 years prior to American Alpha and given plenty of TV time and attempts to become a player, they all flopped

Would have been in this next round of deavors if not for Gable. Jordan is good but hed be a main eventer if he had trained somewhere else first

 

[jackswstd]

Gable is the reason Jordan broke out of his shell. Jordan was bland as fukk before Chad gave him that Ready Willing and Gable stimulus

he just needed a haircut and to stop smiling so much

[The Rainmaker]

He actually said "fukk the New Day"?
