I rolled this question out to the creative team first, and they all answered with an emphathic yes. Now it's your turn.
Do you want to see the tag team titles to come out of retirement?

I think it should be a combination tag team/ stable belt. That may incite a bit more interest.

I wouldn't say you have to call it a "stable" belt, but to include the "Freebird Rule" into the tag division, might be cool. Freebird Rule = Any member of a stable who currently holds the tag titles can compete in a tag team title match for their stable. I'm cool with seeing the tag titles come back, though. My only concern is whether or not we are going to need to get a tag title added to the top area of the site. I definitely designed that whole area with just the 4 current titles in mind. LoL Yes, I'm feeling extremely lazy at the moment.

I'm sure you'll manage. Admirably, no less.

Do you want to see the tag team titles to come out of retirement? I think bringing the tag team titles back (especially under Stormm's suggestion of the Freebird Rule) would add another fun facet back to PCW. Our roster numbers are definitely recovering from last year, and it gives a new "thing" for everyone to do (or not do, as the case may be). Another Tag Team Tournament, maybe? Also, on twitter and RK I've seen a lot of people shopping around for tag team friendly feds. We've been pretty much closed to that for a while, and I think this would help us with recruitment some.

I'll admit this to you all...I've always been worrisome about "stables" in efedding, because if all the top guys decide to link up, it pretty much kills the fed. Who can they compete with? Who can compete with them? It's tough enough that we have The Black Hand...three "main event level" guys teaming together, can you imagine full-on stables of 3 or more sprinkled out across the fed?
Now, I do think we've done a good job with keeping stables to a minimum (we've had The Black Hand, Marshall's Law, and a short-lived Nightmare 2 Society), but I also have a feeling that by opening up the rulebook and allowing a "freebird rule" be the norm instead of the exception, will cause a ton of stables to bloom. While that may be fun in the short-term, I don't think the competition (or freshness) will hold, and I don't want to rekindle a division just to kill it off 3 months later.
Sorry friends, if we do bring back the tag titles, I'm firm with keeping it a 2-person thing. There may be some Freebird-esque exceptions here or there, but I am not willing to budge on this. I have to be a stick in the mud, I know.

I should mention that I have no problem with ALLIANCES...there's always going to be good guys, bad guys, and guys in-between, and there will always be that, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" in wrestling, let alone efedding. I get new can equal exciting...but new is only new for so long before it becomes old.
Let's keep the titles at 2 people (with a freebird rule thrown in when it enhances a feud/storyline) and get some solid partnerships going...IF we want the titles to come back.

Tweeners *shakes head * just pick a side and move along. And for the topic at hand. Being a former two time tag team champion here, of course I'd say yes and would be willing to come out of retirement to join the division along with my new tag team partner LUIS MALAVE!!!!

I for one love Stables (I've been a member of 2 of the three), but I agree with the boss man here. Want to see the titles come back, but I think it cheapens it a bit.
Though I was never against an occasional stand in. If The Dillingers are Tag Champs, but Billy needs to defend the World Title, than Showtime could step in to help. Though this should be a fun spin once in a blue moon rather than The Black Hand are the Tag Team Champs.

Otherwise, everything get's shrunk up there, and starts to look horrid IMHO.

I'd also have to redo some of the theme imagery in the process, though. LoL More work for me one way or the other.

Stop whining, you love the acclaim that comes from the badass job you do around here. If it goes through, get to doin' and then wait for all of us to stroke your ... ego until you all over the boards.
