Hype Bros

[3.0] "Terrible combination, Zack Ryder is fine and had no fault, but Mojo Rawley absolutely sucks. Awful tag team that ended up not worthy of the try. They lasted more than it should and didn't produced anything good."

[3.0] "Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley as a team had chemistry, but Mojo's in-ring work couldn't make up for anything and it brought the team as a whole down. Ryder was still good though, so he gives the team some points."

[5.0] "A very meh tag team, but with some charisma, they could easily be contenders for the titles, but I never envisioned them as champions."

[7.0] "Their energy and theme song always impressed me. This team helped Mojo very much but i'm not sure if it helped Zack Ryder. At least they were entertaining."

[1.0] "Mojo Rawley always been poor wrestler and even teaming with Zack Ryder did not affect him in any way"

[3.0] "A pretty bland tag team. But I got to say Ryder was still getting small pops during this time which is good I guess? Lol, at least this team had an achievement which was being the most interesting thing Mojo Rawley has done. But that's not really saying that much"

[3.0] "Well, it was an improvement over having just Mojo Rawley on screen but a downgrade from having just Zack Ryder."

[9.0] "For me, I liked The Hype Bros, and I thought it was a great idea during there NXT and early SmackDown days, but I think the reason a lot of people dislike the Hype Bros is just because they don't like the "party" gimmick if you will. It usually doesn't work out, and examples are Adam Rose and No Way Jose. The Hype Bros were basically a party gimmicked tag team, but it seemed like the one time the party gimmick actually worked for a wrestler's character. They seemed to be great together, I don't know why, they just had that chemistry, which is always good. I thought Mojo being the inexperienced one being hyped all the time, and Zack being the veteran wrestler and calming Mojo down when needed told a good story about the team. Personally, I think they could've easily been pushed enough to win the SmackDown Tag Titles if Zack didn't get hurt. After they reformed, all there momentum had gone away. Then they started becoming jobbers, and another great example of this is The Revival. When The Usos had come out on SmackDown saying they had the tag division on lock, and when the Hype Bros came out first, they got a decent pop, which means they could've easily gotten the crowd behind them because there such fun guys to watch. We never really got to see how good of a match the Hype Bros could put on given 20 minutes of a tag match at a Pay-Per View, and I think that's another main reason people didn't like them. While WWE made a great move in turning Mojo Rawley heel, and seem to finally be taking him seriously on RAW, Zack Ryder has paid his dues and should be earned a push. Theres always the option to reunite Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins as a tag team but I don't think that would happen, especially since its still somewhat recent that The Hype Bros broke up. I miss that there gone, and they were different and had a lot of charisma and funny moments. I'd be happy if WWE had them reunite for sure, and I was always entertained by them."

[4.0] "While not a spectacular team, the Hype Bros have decent character chemistry and make a decent babyface addition to the tag ranks, albeit one that will probably never ascend to long-term championship level. They also allow Rawley's weaknesses to be hidden in a tag team environment with an experienced tag-specialist partner. In the long run, though, one wonders if the team might end up doing more to hold Ryder back than it will to advance Rawley's career."

[0.0] "While they were solid midcard tag team in NXT, they have really no business to do on main roster. While this tag team was basically created to give Ryder something to do while not working on Superstars, it ended up on Smackdown Live after inexplicable decision to give Rawley main roster call-up. They quickly proved to not have a tiny bit of much needed team chemistry. Ryder may not be great, but he is able to work with the crowd and put some solid in-ring performance, which is something that Rawley can't do. It would be better for everybody to split them as soon as possible."

[7.0] "They are not the best team but I don't know why but they seem to fit together and that is always a hard thing to achieve. Can't teach chemistry."

[7.0] "The Hype Brothers are okay rag team. They don't have bad matches but, they don't have really good matches."

[5.0] "This is the definition of an average tag team. I am into Zack Ryder plenty (even still today), but Mojo is as green as grass, still to this day and it doesn't connect with many arenas outside of full sail."

[5.0] "Pretty average seeming team, can't see it going anywhere really. Even WWE seem ambivalent about them as they come out to an ultra-plain looking entrance video. Just an excuse to let Ryder do something mildly significant seeming, but I'm not interested in seeing them win anything."
