Who's the Best Tag-Team of All Time ?

[YardRat]

I'm not a very big wrestling fan, I admit, and I don't watch much these days, but I used to love watching the British Bulldogs in the hey day of WrestleMania!

[PUCKER]

Demolition!

[thegame]

1. "Mr. PPV", "The Whole F'n Show"... ROB VAN DAM and the suicidal, homicidal, genocidal... SABU, managed by the man who calls it right down the middle, the manager of champions... Bill Alphonso.

2. The Dudley Boyz
3. Harlem Heat
4. The Road Warriors (Legion of Doom)
5. Edge and Christian
6. The Hart Foundation
7. The Stiener Brothers
8. Demolition
9. The New Age Outlaws
10. The Impact Players (Lance Storm and Justin Credible)

[D-Rocafella]

Have to go with Demolition. When their music, "Here comes the Ax, and here comes the Smash, out to destroy you Demolition," hit I got up. The WWE never took full advantage of what they had. Both LOD, and Demolition were in their primes on WWE rosters, but they never had a big fued. Too bad though, it would have been great to see the 2 greatest tag teams mix it up in a long fued.

i thought their theme went "here comes the ax, here comes the smasher, we're demolition, walking disaster. making destruction, is our middle name". and i agree they were my fave tag growing up. but i give credit to the hardy boyz and thier awesome ladder matches. my fave match of all time was TLC #1. screw shawn michaels, the hardyz made ladders famous

[D-Rocafella]

My bad. Your probaly right. I'm trying to find it now on Kazza, but so far no luck.

[shawn]

I've always been a fan of the Hardy Boyz. I love the high flyers.

[BLeonard]

As a owner of about 1000 wrestling videos (no kidding) and a huge fan of the tag team division of the late 1980s-Early 1990s, I have to go with Demolition as the greatest tag team in wrestling history. The reason being is the fact that they were the first team in WWE history to "3 peat" as Tag Team Champions, and it was done during a time where you didn't see repeat champions like you do today. At the time that Demolition won it's 3rd Tag Title (At WrestleMania 6), Hulk Hogan had only held the World Title for the Second time, while Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels and the like were merely mid-carders.

BTW, just to answer the Demolition theme question... The lyrics are:

"Here comes the Ax... Here comes the Smasher, the Demolition, walking disaster... Pain and destruction is our middle name"

I know this because I have the song burned to a CD :)

-Bill

[thegame]

^It's a great song.

[RaidersFan]

Greatest tag team has to be

ROCK AND SOCK.

Just Playin. The best team is probably Demoltion. Thoses guys were sweet. I was thinking earlyer that now if you look at the WWE roster there is no one that really has face paint. I always thought of face paint when i thought of wrestling. I mean 2 of the greatest wrestlers had it.

Sting, and Ultimat warrior

and for tag teams Demolition and LOD had face paint

another great tag team that no one has said was Marty Jennety and Shawn Micheals (totally killed the spelling on their names)
i forget there tag team name.

they were "The Rockers"!!!! how could u forget that?? :banghead:

[LVBillsfan]

It has to be the Bushwackers!!! You remember those Aussies?:Hoppin:

[RaidersFan]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh the rockers. Man i cant belive i forgot that.. I had their Action Figures

[thegame]

The Bushwackers were from New Zealand!

[Diesel83]

Wow, a wrestling board! I know where I'll be spending most of my time. lol

It's gotta be The British Bulldogs, Dynamite Kid Tom Billington was the most underrated wrestler of all time. The popular moves you see now, he was doing in Japan in the 80s. It's too bad he's in a wheelchair now.

For the highspots, I'd go with Sabu and RVD, since they were both trained by Sabu's uncle, The Original Shiek, and worked out together, they had sweet chemistry.

[thegame]

^Some love for RVD and Sabu, finally!

[thegame]

Balls Mahoney and Spike Dudley was another great ECW tag team. Niether were very gifted athletically, but both could take a serious beating.

[SABURZFAN]

arn anderson & tully blanchard

[Diesel83]

I still got the Bulldogs 1st, but I just remembered another team that should be mentioned as one of the tops, Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Jim "The Anvil" Niedhart, The Hart Foundation, managed by Jimmy Hart. I used to love their finisher, the Hart Attack.

I was also a fan of The Rockers, when they were in the AWA and known as The Midnight Rockers. Their theme song was some heavy metal song. I don't know anything about heavy metal, I'm a hip hopper lol, but does anyone know who sang it? It had words like rockin after midnight, partyin' until dawn.

I need to get my hands on some old footage of those two. I've only seen a handful of their matches.

[LVBillsfan]

My bad about the Bushwackers, but I was only 10 years old when they wrestled! How about Kane and RVD.

[MiamiMasterpiece]

Demolition
Road Warriors
Bush Wackers
Rockers

And of course my favorite ever, Harlem Heat, GOTTA LOVE THE BOOK!

[PUCKER]

Actually,besides Demolition I do have some other favs :

Legion of Doom
The Hart Foundation
The Outsiders

[gmnj]

All these teams mentioned are pretty good. Demolition probably had the most success. Hart Foundation were great as well, mostly due to Bret Hart. British Bulldogs up there as well. Does anyone remember the "Dream Team," Brutus Beefcake and Greg "The Hammer" Valentine? The great Jimmy Valiant managed them. Their Wrestlemania 2 match with the British Bulldogs was the first tag team title for the Bulldogs in the WWF.

[gmnj]

As far as LOD, they were much better as the Road Warriors in WCW. They were still good in the WWF, but they just seemed to lose something after they left WCW and became LOD.

[RaidersFan]

i completly forgot about the outsiders. They were one of the best teams ever. They worked great in the ring. I remember in WCW when Nash and Hall had to have a match with stripers. that was great.

[SABURZFAN]

other favorites of mine were

the EAST-WEST coast connection(a.adonis & j.ventura)
the Minnesota Wrecking Crew(gene & ole anderson)
ric flair & greg valentine

[gmnj]

You're going way back Saburzfan. Another team that popped in my head is the Midnight Express. There were a number of versions of them, I think, but I remember they were always a consistently good team. Their feud with the Rock N' Roll Express is one of the classic feuds.

[Buffalo Juan]

Here are a few of my favorites:

The Hart Foundation

The Road Warriors

The British Bulldogs

Edge & Christian

The Rock & Roll Express

The Midnight Express

And my favorite:

The Hollywood Blondes, owners of the greatest enterance music ever. (c'mon, Steve Austin and Brian Pillman! It doesn't get any better.)

[gmnj]

Yea. They were a real good team! Austin and Pillman. Won a bunch of tag team titles. good pick.

[gmnj]

anyone who only knows of Austin with the shaved head needs to get some older WCW footage of Austin with the long blonde hair. Austin was also perhaps the best Television Champion in WCW's history. Although I think some Arn Anderson fans would debate that.

[Diesel83]

I forgot abou the Hollywood Blondes, too bad they weren't a team for longer. BTW Buffalo Juan, that was a nice entrance song, I got it in a CD somewhere.

Hey gmnj, do you remember when Austin was in World Class, and he had the really long blond hair with the floral print trunks?lol
He used to tag with the California Stud and they were managed by Austin's ex wife Jeannie.

Nice, I forgot about the EAST-WEST coast connection. As most of you probably know Adrian Adonis was from Buffalo.

[shawn]

I loved to hate this team when I was a kid:

Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff

No. I never knew too much about World Class. I do remember his ex-wife, I think it was his ex-wife, managed him in WCW for awhile.

Rememeber when they beat Barry Windam and Mike Rotunda, the USA Express, for the belts. Wasn't that the first Wrestlemania? They used a cigar or something I think. They were a good team, sheik and volkoff, really disliked.

[Diesel83]

World Class was from Dallas and was on ESPN, it's where Austin, Rick Rude, Paul Bearer and The Ultimate Warrior started out, when he was known as The Dingo Warrior.

[whkfc]

Koko B ware and Owen Hart
The Body Donnas
The New Blackjacks

Dont forget about these guys. LOL

I cant belive the Dudley boys are getting no love here.

[LVBillsfan]

Guys, you haven't mentioned the Steiner Brothers! How about Benoit and Dean Melenko in WCW?

[whkfc]

Money Inc. Ted DiBiase and Mike Rotundo.

[NJBillsFan]

i didn't see the Super Powers (or ultimate powers) on here. Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage. they were awesome together. i will always remember when they beat Andre the Giant and Haku for the tag titles, mainly cuz Miss Elizabeth took off her skirt to distract their opponents

[whkfc]

The Conquistadors.

i'm OLD SCHOOL.BigGrin:

[D-Rocafella]

I was about to mention the Super Powers but you beat me to the punch NJBillsFan. Two other teams I remembered are the Twin Towers (Boss Man and Akeem) and the team of Andre the Giant, and Haku.

[freedomfrypizza]

Sting and Lex Luger

[thegame]

Savage and Hogan were called the Mega-Powers, not Super-Powers.

[D-Rocafella]

Your right thegame, that's NJBillsFan's bad LOL!

[BillsfaninVirginia]

The Moondogs

The Road Warriors

The Varsity Club

[FrankieA]

George "The Animal" Steele and the Macho Man Randy Savage

[NJBillsFan]

you coulda corrected me, but u agreed with me. dont' try and con your way outta being just as wrong as me :gotcha:

[Diesel83]

I think The American Dream Dusty Rhodes and The Russian Nightmare Nikita Koloff were known as the Super Powers.

[Dean in LA]

Art Barr & Eddy Guererro. Los Gringos Locos.

[angneli]

The Hart Foundation
The Road Warriors
Demolition
The Brittish Bulldogs
Anyteam ending with the word express
The Freebirds


And for the record Andre and Haku were the Colossal Connection
