WWE Power Rankings: Return of the Tag Team?

What? Two tag teams in Review Fix’s RAW Power Rankings this week? Hell yes. With Kane and Daniel Bryan inducing laughs in their promos and Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow bursting on to the tag team scene, the WWE’s tag team division just shaped up in a big way.

5: Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow: These guys come out of nowhere on Monday. Both solid singles performers who haven’t got a “big” push, this may seem like a sidestep at first, and not a push they need, but it does give them more TV time and a chance to work with Daniel Bryan and Kane.

4: Ryback: A huge win over The Miz and a confrontation with CM Punk all in one night made for a career night for Ryback. Feed me more? Looks like he got more than enough on Monday.

3: AJ Lee: From crying to being a tough SOB, Lee ran the emotional gamut this week and proved her worth to the company. While many would rather see her in the ring, Lee’s tenure as general manager has been surprisingly enjoyable.

2: Daniel Bryan and Kane: These guys are the most enjoyable tag team in the WWE in years. These two great workers shockingly have much more in common than anyone could have ever imagined. A month ago, the WWE tag team division was a bore. Things look quite different now.

1: CM Punk: Yeah, he’s a whiny, complaining heel, quite the difference from the defiant rebel of last summer, but he’s still the best in the world. His impending matchup with John Cena at Hell in a Cell will be another classic.
