Hmm, an interesting point.So let me get this straight.
On one hand, you have Edge and Christian, who have the 2nd shortest average length of reign with the WWE Tag Titles (out of the top 50 teams) with a mere 29.8 days per reign. Think about that. On average, Edge and Christian held the Tag Team Titles less than a month. Pick it up at one pay per view, drop it at the next. Only the Hardy Boyz have a worse A.L.O.R.
Edge; 12 tag belts
Christian; 9
Edge and Christian as a team have 7 reigns, two matches of the year and one tag team of the year
Bam Bam; 3 tag belts
Vader;2 tag belts
BBDP; 1 combined reign.
So on merits alone, I go with Edge and Christian.
BBDP
BB&D contended with the likes of the Steiner Brothers, Hiroshi Hase & Keiji Mutoh, Scott Norton & Tony "Ludvig Borga" Halme, and countless other Japanese legends.
These two men owned New Japan Pro,
So THIS is why you don't post wrestling often.
It's been well established that championship belts are not the singular indicator of the greatness of a tag team.
If it was, by your "logic" FLUK, Crash Holly is among the greatest wrestlers ever to walk the earth, since he held the Hardcore belt so many times.
In fact, I think it was Sly who originally started taking people to task for using # of title reigns as the sole indicator of a wrestler's or a team' greatness.
But yeah, E&C holding the WWF Tag Belts for less than a month at a clip with competition from fellow spot-monkeys the Hardyz, equally spotty table-monkeys the Dudley Boyz, and the uber-drawing "Too Cool."

Folks, don't let Sly's tough talk and FLUK's rare wrestling forum appearance sway you away from the RIGHT CHOICE. .
Wait...meaningful NJPW run? What was meaningful about it? Please share with us what was meaningful about a 4 month title reign.I'll take one meaningful NJPW run and a tag team that would have dominated either WWF or WCW had their paths crossed over a team with 7 title runs, few of which were more than transitional title tosses. By your logic, Sly, Flair > Hogan because 20 titles > 12 titles.
And to say this match is a walk in E&C's favor is naive. In fact, I'll bet that you're here not even caring who actually wins this match - you're trying to prove you can put away my kool aid. And as a result, you're trying to allow an over rated team which you have accused of being useless outside of spotfest matches ON NUMEROUS OCCASSIONS just to get a rise out of me. Sucks being bored, huh?
They did? Yeah, I'd been pissed.Oh, and Sly, where were you when E&C beat The Steiners?
I go for BB&D. They are much stronger than E&C, and when it comes to speed there isn't a lot of differnace between the teams. E&C's only chance woudl be by cheating and I don't see this happening as Vader and Bam Bam are just as resourceful.
Vader and Bam Bam were still fucking slow.
I know Vader better than BB, so I'm just going to use him for the rest of my soliloquy. When people promote Vader they tend to throw around all the things that "he could do". Sunset flips. Drop kicks. Moonsaults and the like. What is not mentioned is that these spots came very occasionally, and were broken up by prolonged periods of "waiting for Vader to get back to his feet", which took a good while (not into Big Daddy V or Yokozuma territory, but a damn sight longer than it would take Edge of Christian).
Vader could run quite fast, as long as he didn't have to do it for long, and as long as he had a rest period to get his breath back afterwards.
I forget who said it in the previous round, but the point was made that the size and strength of Arn Anderson was negated because Vader and Bam Bam were bigger and stronger. Well in this match the speed and athleticism of Vader and Bam Bam are negated because E&C are about ten times faster.
They're also more cohesive
and have accomplished more as a tag team, both for themselves and for tag team wrestling.
By lying on top of them, making sure their shoulders were down flat on the mat?This is disappointing me. Let me ask anyone that picked E/C this. Just how exactly would either of them pin either of the big men?

Perhaps, but E/C are no Bret Hart, and Yoko is no Bam Bam or Vader.
