I'll be the first to admit, when these two first won the belts I rolled my eyes. It was early in the era of Smackdown and ECW "exchanging talent" so it felt wrong that two ECW guys were now holding the Smackdown tag titles. Since they won the belts, they have primarily been featured on ECW, almost to the point where it feels like the titles switched brands all together. Miz and Morrison have joined a long list of tag team champions in the modern era where their reigns fall flat due to the lack of any tag division or real challengers. So far they have feuded with Shannon Moore and Jimmy Wang Yang, which produced a series of very solid television matches, but nothing that amounted to any heated pay-per-view appearances. Right now they seem to be doing the same in a rivalry against Jesse and Festus. On the bright side, Morrison and Miz work really well as a team and their matches are typically very solid, so despite them being thrown together, they are succeeding and doing the best they can in a rather sad situation.
