After that bump @ Armageddon and Joey is just gonna be a jobber? MNM should stick together if you ask me. Now with WGTT, London & Kendrick, Hardyz plus MNM a few other tag teams WWE could actually rebuild their tag team division if they had half a mind!

Ugh, I like what I was seeing a few backs at the ppv. Mercury being part of MNM again and that team tag being back together. I'd rather see 'em being put together and go for the tag titles becuase I think they'd do pretty damn good in the raw tag divsion. I hope he doesn't start jobbing again becuase he doesn't deserve it. I feel he is just as good as Nitro.

I never knew Canadian ratings where counted, wow Im going to start watching WWE on television

Why is he going to be a jobber, he should be teamed up with Nitro, they make one hell of a tag team.
