Scott Dawson has made his feelings known as he says the former WWE RAW and SmackDown Tag Team Champions aren’t quite the same.
The Revival has had an up and downtime while on the WWE main roster while working both brands – RAW and SmackDown.
The seemed to be picking up steam by winning the SmackDown Tag Team Titles around the same time that WWE paired them with Randy Orton on television.
Scott Dawson Says His Admission
Since they split, The Revival has been struggling. This is something that Dawson mentioned in a recent post on his official Twitter account.
The former WWE Champion responded to that tweet with, “Legos>thumb tacks. The things #topguys do to get #over @DashWilderWWE @ScottDawsonWWE.”
Dawson commented on Orton’s post by writing, “We’re strugglin’ without ya #Help#FTRKO.”
Scott Dawson’s original tweet was referring to their loss to Heavy Machinery in a Street Fight on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown in Brooklyn, NY at the Barclays Center on FOX.
Pitched Group
Back in November, it was reported that Orton approached WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon to personally pitch for a stable between himself and The Revival.
However, the WWE boss turned down the pitch. Not only that but he split them up and kept The Revival on SmackDown while Orton was sent to RAW.
Now, it’s being reported this week that The Revival will become a spoof of a famous 80s tag-team, The Fabulous Ones, on WWE programming.
On the flip side, Orton has entered into a feud with former WWE United States Champion AJ Styles on RAW. In fact, WWE has already confirmed that The OC (AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson) vs Randy Orton and The Viking Raiders will take place on Monday Night RAW this week.
This six-man tag team match was taped last Monday in Des Moines, IA at the Wells Fargo Arena.
