The Vaudevillains made their WWE main roster debuts a couple weeks ago and now are in the finals of the WWE Tag Team Tournament to become number one contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championships. Since they made their debuts, their crowd reaction has been luke warm at best. I recently asked my followers on twitter if they saw the tag team having success on the main roster. Some positive responses but mostly fans don’t see it working long-term.
Here is what they said:
@InnerN3rd I think they’ll be a draw for awhile, but their character i think is too cartoonish and will grow stale after awhile.

@InnerN3rd really don’t like the gimmick enough to consider them a legit threat or title contenders #my2cents

@InnerN3rd I think they can have a great run… Gimmicks is a rarity in the business now a days..How many regular guys can their be anyway.

@InnerN3rd the gimmick was never going to work on the main roster, as fun as it is.

@InnerN3rd they are better than the gimmick they are currently stuck with. Hope they get time to show that

@InnerN3rd I know they’re different and even though I appreciate the idea, I feel lukewarm bordering on cold when I see them.

@InnerN3rd don’t want them to be forgotten they are a great team

@InnerN3rd Gimmick is boring to me! Classical films are cool, but this is lame!

@InnerN3rd Is a different gimmick, but, I love. They deserve much more!

@InnerN3rd They’ll need to win over the casual fans with amazing and original promos. Given their characters & gimmick there’s potential.

I agree that if the WWE wants to get them over they need to be given some promo time or be allowed to develop their characters. I just think their gimmick right now is confusing for the casual fans because they haven’t been allowed to show anything off.
Let us know what you think about the Vaudevillains and if you see them having success long term.
