The Judgment Day is still your World Tag Team Champions, and not many people are happy about it. The finish came as a result of a major controversy in what was their first title defense in 70 days.

Judgment Day has been criticized for handling the World Tag Team Championships. In the eyes of many, the titles have become an afterthought. Their last defense before November 25 was on September 16 against The New Day, marking just short of 70 days between the two defenses.

While The War Raiders looked like they were in the driver's seat to finally dethrone Judgment Day and become champions after years, the interference of Dominik Mysterio and Carlito led to JD McDonagh getting the pin on Ivar. It was a controversial finish.

Fans aren't happy that Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are still the Tag Team Champions. As we mentioned, the primary criticism of the title run has been the lack of title defenses.

The story is quite different if you compare it to the WWE Tag Team Titles on SmackDown, where Motor City Machine Guns regularly defend the gold.

Hopefully, changes will be made soon.
