[2003-07-03-WWE-Smackdown] Eddie Guerrero & Tajiri vs Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin

[ohtani's jacket]

Eddie and Tajiri were a fun looking tag team. Unfortunately, this is the last we see of them as a tag team as this is the match where Eddie turns heel. Are Haas and Benjamin supposed to be heels or faces? It's hard to tell from their ring work. They're athletic and hardworking, but don't have the charisma it takes to shine in the WWE. It's hard to imagine one of them turning on the other and becoming a big star. The match is OK, though kind of standard Smackdown stuff. There's a drawn out angle at the end where it appears Eddie is concerned about his partner but attacks him instead. Cole says, "that's not the Eddie Guerrero I know." Really, Michael Cole? Are you stupider than you look? I didn't really love the way Eddie played the heel turn. Sometimes his comedy doesn't land. If you can call this comedy.
