The Judgment Day’s first title defense in 70 days has left fans feeling disappointed and frustrated as the team of Finn Balor and JD McDonagh managed to retain the World Tag Team Championships in a controversial manner. The controversy surrounding their title run has been a recurring theme, with many criticizing the duo for not putting the gold on the line often enough. The last defense prior to November 25 was on September 16 against The New Day, a span of almost 70 days between matches.
The highly anticipated showdown against The War Raiders was billed as the team’s chance to finally dethrone Judgment Day and become champions after years of trying. On the surface, it seemed like The War Raiders were in control, but a sudden and unexpected twist changed the course of the match. Interference from Dominik Mysterio and Carlito led to JD McDonagh pinning Ivar, securing a dubious win for his team.
Fans are left seething, feeling that the finish was undeserved and unfair. The controversy surrounding the title run has been ongoing for some time, with many questioning the duo’s ability to handle the World Tag Team Championships. In comparison, the WWE Tag Team Titles on SmackDown are regularly defended, a stark contrast to the lack of activity around the World Tag Team Championships.
The War Raiders, who have been waiting for what feels like an eternity to get their hands on the gold, will undoubtedly be feeling frustrated at the turn of events. Their years of hard work and dedication to the sport have been undone by a sudden and unexpected twist. It remains to be seen how the situation will unfold, but one thing is certain – the fans are not happy with the current state of affairs.
The tone set by The Judgment Day’s title defense is one of disappointment and frustration. The fans were expecting a titanic struggle between two teams, but what they got was a subpar finish that has left many feeling shortchanged. The World Tag Team Championships have become an afterthought in WWE, and it’s high time for a change. The question on everyone’s mind is – what’s next for The Judgment Day and the World Tag Team Championships?
Will the team be able to rebound from this controversy and continue their reign as champions, or will their title drought be finally broken by a deserving team? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the fans are eager for a change in the status quo. The WWE would do well to listen to the fans and make some necessary changes to the World Tag Team Championships to bring back the excitement and anticipation that once surrounded the division.
