The Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions are gearing up for their toughest test yet at WrestleMania XL in Philadelphia. While anticipation builds for the grand event, fans are expressing disappointment over the recent struggles of a beloved team on the wrestling scene.
The O.C., comprised of Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows, boasts an impressive resume in professional wrestling. With multiple championship reigns worldwide, they returned to WWE under Triple H’s leadership. However, their recent booking has left many questioning their direction.
In a recent episode of Friday Night SmackDown, the former RAW Tag Team Champions faced defeat in a qualifier match against Austin Theory and Grayson Waller. This setback follows AJ Styles’ departure from the group in December, leaving Anderson and Gallows in a challenging position.

Fans are voicing their discontent with the handling of Anderson and Gallows’ storyline. Despite this, there remains optimism among supporters for the duo’s future, given their consistent presence in the developmental brand.
Acknowledging the duo’s history and potential, fans are urging WWE to provide stronger booking for Anderson and Gallows moving forward.
As they compete in another tournament on the developmental brand, speculation arises that they may contend for the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship at Stand and Deliver 2024, potentially facing Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin.
Meanwhile, on Monday Night RAW, The Judgment Day continues to reign as Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions. Finn Balor and Damian Priest have overcome various challenges to secure their status as dominant champions.
Despite increasing competition within the tag team division, no team has succeeded in unseating them.
As WrestleMania XL approaches, The Judgment Day will defend their titles against five other teams in a Six Pack Ladder Match. Teams like Awesome Truth, #DIY, and The New Day have secured their spots, with the possibility of New Catch Republic and Theory/Waller joining the fray pending upcoming matches.
With the anticipation building for the ultimate showdown, wrestling enthusiasts eagerly await the outcome of these clashes and the spectacle that WrestleMania XL promises to deliver.
