This beith the third year of the Tag Team Tournament. It parallels the growth of the Wrestling Tournament into it's third year earlier this year. Now we saw how poor Shawn Michaels did this year, losing to Justin Liger. What I am getting at is Edge and Christian are also former champions. Will they have a similar fate?
Let us break this down.
I am not one for using the ol' "They should never have won last round" bullshit, because that truly is bullshit and is a way of trying to break the confidence of the tournament. I voted against the Mexicools 2.0, but to my surprise, they won.
Nationality was brought up last time, but I think it is easily countered. As proven in the singles tournament, Canadian wrestlers are the most superior wrestlers on earth, 3 out of 4 times. That slams Santana and Eddie's chance of getting the "same nationality" vote here (Even though neither were born in Mexico..., I guess this makes them both American...), as guess what, Edge and Christian were born... in the same city (suburbs)!
Many people through out things such as "thrown together tag teams should never get far, as they have no chemistry" Well guess what! Edge and Christian were actually a tag team!
"Blood is thicker than water." Now we have all heard that. Guess what! Edge and Christian are ACTUALLY brothers! if this was the keyfabe forums... wait, are they still keyfabe brothers? That is another point to chemistry.
Some will argue that Eddie had a great tag career, with his cousin Chavo, with his friend Rey Mysterio, with his lover, steroids, and all of those great tag teams. But Edge is a 13 time WWE/World Tag Team champion. He even tagged with one of the greatest tag team wrestlers ever, Hulk Hogan (Vote Mega Powers!). All Tito ever did was wrestler in Strike Force (Who didn't even make this tournament)
And if we were to break it down to find the strong points. We would look at World titles. I think Christian has more than the other team put together? I just don't feel like looking to see how man AWA (if we even count it as a World Championship) he won. I think he also had an ECW (Read that Eastern Championship Wrestling) run for like a month. I believe Christian has a couple of those reigns from a belt that read ECW, but he has a better acronym, NWA in there. None of them compete with Edge who is nearing double digits.
So do the right thing, vote Edge and Christian, or face the Spear from a top of a ladder.
