Booker and Goldust should be lower. LayCool shouldn't even be there and Chuck and Billy should be nowhere near this list.

My instant thought is if the Steiner's are so low, what's left. That should easily be a top 20 tag team even though majority of their history is outside WWE.

Pretty safe to say Hart Foundation, Rockers, LOD, The Britiish Bulldogs, Demolition, Edge & Christian, New Age Outlawz, Hardyz will be top ten teams? Wonder where they rank the Dudleyz.

Other teams I'm thinking of are Rougeaus, Can-Am Connection, Owen and Bulldog, The Islanders, The Brainbusters, Money Inc.

Just lol in general on the Steiners being 41 out of 50...

That's a mistake.

Really, really scared to see how high DX is ranked.

And the list is obviously going to be a farce... But The Steiners that low is weird.

Oh, and I miss Lay-Cool :(

One other thing, I love Rock and Foley. Rock is one of my 2-3 favorites of all time, Foley is probably in my top 15. And that team had some great moments, Rock returning help Foley to beat down 3/4 of Evolution, Mick Foley: This is Your Life, and of course Rock: This is Your Life. But they were always a short-term team and while they were 3x tag champions but those 3 reigns totaled a combined 15 days.

That's not to say they shouldn't be on this list because especially in the Youtube era we live in they have so many great Youtube moments. But they should be a lot lower on this list. Somewhere in the 45-50 range.

If the Road Warriors aren't #1 then this list is ****.

They will probably make DX #1.

That's how I feel about a lot of these 2 established stars coming together tag teams. Brother's of Destruction should be 50-40 range, along with Rock and Sock, and RKO, and the MegaPowers...Goldust and Booker probably shouldn't be rated.

Yeah I agree with that the Steiners should be higher on the list, but at the sametime they didnt spend that long with the company.

I don't consider DX a tag team, they were a faction. I don't like them on the list as much as I don't like Goldust/Booker and Jeri-Show on there.

Exactly Cape, and that's why it's going to be painful when they're number 3 on the list behind the Hart Foundation and the Road Warriors.


Midnights and the Rock and Rolls probably won't even make the list.

It is a WWE list so hard to see Rock and Rolls and Midnight Express on that list due to limited time with the company if any.

I agree that DX shouldn't be on this list at all. But the New Age Outlaws should be highly ranked and they were part of DX. I assume when you guys say DX you're referring to Shawn/HHH?

OH, you're right. I missed that it was "WWE History".

Yeah, Hart Foundation will probably be number one then.

And yeah, that's what I mean. New Age Outlaws should definitely be high.

I think Hart Foundation should easily be top 3, but I'm not sure they get number 1 spot. Will be interesting.

I'd say top 3 end up being Road Warriors, Hart Foundation, and possibly New Age Outlaws (even though I don't think they should be)

Hardys, Dudleys, New Age Outlaws, LOD, Demolition, Hart Foundation, E&C, APA and unfortunately DX will prob round out the top 10. As for 20-10, was racking my brain and can't really think who else would be in it.

Bulldogs and Money Inc.

Can't believe I forgot Natural Disasters.

I'd like to see the Islanders make the list somewhere just simply for their storyline with kidnapping Matilda. Also, Strike Force, part of WM3 and winning the titles in the opening bout.

This list just gets more and more awful.

They'll probably rank some recent tag team number 9. My money is on Santino and Kozlov.

I do like when these lists come out though as it lets us have good discussion on tag teams. LOD are number 1 in my book.
