Heath Slater & Justin Gabriel - Tag Team Saviours

Back to the original questions, I guess it all boils down to what you define as "success". If success means keeping your job and hanging around for a while, then sure, probably. If success means having your career skyrocket and having a huge majority of fans care about you and love you, then no, probably not.

Specifically, for the first question, success as a tag team. Well...can anyone really be a success and a tag team in the WWE right now? In the WWE, tag teams is where you put people that you don't want completely off television but you don't really have anything for them to do right now. So I guess you could say that these two have been successful, or as successful as a tag team can be in the WWE.

Success as a singles competitor? Doubtful. I don't think either is bad, but Slater does not really stand out in any meaningful way, and if he were to lose his job right now I doubt anyone would even remember him in a year or two. It seemed like Gabriel had his own little mini following when he was part of the original nexus, but that seems to have fizzled out now. So ultimately, I think these two might be able to hang around in lower or midcard level, but I don't really see either of them having careers that will put folks in seats.

For the last question, I can't really answer that, I never watched promo shows and I can not attest if they really make a significant difference in someone's career or not.

So to summarize, no, I think these two will probably be around for a little while and hopefully someone will think of something good for them to do. Otherwise, they are on their way out. But you never know, one of them might get lucky along the way and pull a cody rhodes and end up ok.
