Previously deleted for not meeting WP:GNG. All sources are WP:ROUTINE match results, not significant independent coverage. Individuals are notable, but the team is not (at least not yet). Nikki ♥  311   12:30, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

 * I mentioned this on the main talk page: According to Nikki 311's reasoning which is and I quote, "Individuals are notable, but the team is not (at least not yet)". Uh....ok. If Heath Slater and Rhyno aren't "notable" then why the world does The Ascension, The Vaudevillains, etc. have their own page and it doesn't get "nominated for deletion". Now I know that The Ascension and The Vaudevillains were Tag Team Champions just like Heath Slater and Rhyno, but there is a difference. A BIG DIFFERENCE...The Vaudevillains and The Ascension were NXT Champions, while Heath Slater and Rhyno were SmackDown Tag Team Champions. Developmental vs. Main Roster. And like another user on the talk page said, they were the inaugural SmackDown Tag Team Champions and the longest reigning. If that doesn't call notable, I don't know what does. Thank you. --Chrismaster1 (talk) 02:06, 28 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete The last AfD took place while they were champions and nothing has changed since them to make them more notable. These were two established guys thrown together to make a team, the Vaudevillains and Ascension guys aren't separable from their tag team gimmick... If anything their individual articles should be merged with the main tag team article.LM2000 (talk) 12:08, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable put together team like Breezango and Golden Truth that will split up and no one will ever remember. The Vaudevillains and Ascension are notable because they are strictly tag teams, while Health Slater and Rhino are known for singles competition and are not notable because of this tag team.

 * Nuetral but lean towards keep I don't think this article necessarily needs deleted. There are a decent number of sources. This tag team has been around for a good bit of time now and are still a team. They were also the inaugural SmackDown Tag Team Champions, as well as the longest reigning. -- JDC808  ♫  09:33, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment, the sources do not help establish notability. They are WP:ROUTINE match results. Nikki  ♥  311   12:37, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
