Favorite WWE Tag Teams

[sam_the_man_2]

The WWE tag team division is in a state of disarray. For example, the champs are Santino and Kozlov. Don't get me wrong, I'm possibly the unibrowed one's biggest fan. But seriously...
Anyway my questions are:
1. Who is your favourite old school tag team/stable and why?
2. Who is your favourite new school tag team/stable and why?
3 Who would you like to see win the tag championships off Santino and Kozlov and why?
4What do you think WWE should do with their tag division?
Just to clarify, New School is WWE, Old School is WWF

1. my favorite old school tag team would be the new age outlaws. the first tag team i have ever seen because i first started to watch WWF in 95-96 and they really entertained me. i loved jesse james and mr ass billy gunn. they were fun, they were good on the mic and pretty good in the ring.

2. my favorite new school team or stable is Nexus. they were fresh and i really didnt see them comming. when they first invaded raw i was in shock. i really enjoyed that whole program. it looked some what real and it accually got me really wanting to see the follwing raw which hasnt happened since the attitude era.

3. i think that the uso's should be the team to become the new tag champs. they have talent and they are they only true tag team in the wwe and i think they need to be used alot more because i can see them being a really good tag team.

4. in order for wwe to make their tag team division better again they need to sign and bring in new talent. they need to go to mexico, and europe, and japan to see what true tag team wrestling is all about.

1. Who is your favourite old school tag team/stable and why?

The Rockers, best team of their day and a travesty they never got the belts... closely followed by The British Bulldogs who were also the best tag team of their time.

2. I haven't liked many teams in recent years, they haven't had the excitment levels of the past or the identity... If I had to pick one, I would probably go with The Hart Dynasty, as they paid their dues as a team and had enough to have been a "legendary team" in time...
3 Who would you like to see win the tag championships off Santino and Kozlov and why?
It'll be one of the Nexus teams, so they can feud with each other over the belts at Mania... I am thinking Slater and Gabriel as they are previous champs but I could easily see Husky and Mini-Perfect being the guys to do it... Alternatively I hear Booker T may be coming back, if so I'd put him with someone like Percy Watson.
4What do you think WWE should do with their tag division?
Rebuild it with Tag teams with identity as a tag team, not throwing together teams for the sake of it. Every team having a name helps and not just a Jerishow style melding... Take 6 of those not doing much in singles and tell them they are going to be teaming for the next 2 years minimum or they can leave... guys like DiBiase, R-Truth etc who are on the bubble can be tag team specialists or on unemployment... that way you have the commitment to the division to rebuild it.

1. My favourite tag team of all time was The Bushwackers. Granted they weren't as successful as the other great tag teams of their era like Demolition, Hart Foundation and the like. But I liked their zany antics and unpredictability. I just wish they would have been allowed to have been more like they were when wrestling as The Sheepherders rather than being overly comedic as they were booked.

2. The Hart Dynasty. I think their split was inevitable, but has come far too early. They could have been the pivotal team and re-defined and promoted the tag division.

3. I've got no real favourites to take the belts from Santinio and Kozlov. I think if the Nexus storyline is to continue to run, then giving them some gold wouldn't hurt their credibility as a competitive stable. But which combination of members I'm not too sure. Although I do like the big man little man combo in a team, so I'll go for McGillicutty and Harris.

4. What should WWE do with their failing tag division? There's a plethora of possibilities here:

i) Firstly, and simply, invest some time in the division. I like tag teams where the partners dress similarly and have something in common.

ii) I hate random thrown together teams and I hate when Main Event stars are thrown into a team and take the focus of the competitive tag teams already competing for the titles. Leave the Main Eventers to the main event, and the tag team specialists to compete for their respective titles.

iii) Get rid of some of the singles titles - too many titles demean the worth of being a champion to me and take the focus off certain titles.

iv) Drop the brand split - more possibilities for tag team combinations.

v) Don't split up teams too early (Hart Dynasty) and don't debut a young established tag team as title contenders then drop the ball and turn them into a joke (The Usos).

vi) Attach a writer solely to the tag division and hire former tag team wrestlers to work with that writer.

:
1. Who is your favourite old school tag team/stable and why?

My favorite old school tag team is Edge and Christian. They had good chemistry, they had good ring work and they made me laugh.

2. Who is your favourite new school tag team/stable and why?

My favorite new school tag team/Stable as in WWE is Evolution. They just turned each one of their members into a star. Batista was a multiple time world champion. Orton is a multiple time world champion.

My favourite old school tag team is for me the very under-rated Owen Hart & British Bulldog. They formed together as they both had Jim Cornett as manager but the night they won the titles they dropped him for Clarence Mason. He didn't last very long and Owen & Davey went on to rule the tag divison for almost a year, then they both became double champs when Davey won Euro gold(beating Owen) and Owen won IC gold. If it hadn't of been for montreal these guys could have kept going..

My favourite new tag team is quite difficult as there hasn't been that many in the latter part of the decade but I'd go for London&Kendrick. Great run on smackdown with the titles and great inovative double team moves..

My favourite old school tag team has to be Billy Gunn and Road Dogg, so entertaining, and made the DX Stable much better.

WWE favourite tag team?. it's between Test and Scott Steiner, just for the pure power and the storyline behind the teaming, or La Resistance, i just feel they we're a more sucsessful teaming of the Un-Americans.

I'd love to see the teaming of Goldust and Cody Rhodes take the tag titles tbh, can't stand Kozmarella, or whatever they're called.

1. Who is your favourite old school tag team/stable and why?

E & C. They are both awesome, I mean all time greats. What more could anyone ask for?

2. Who is your favourite new school tag team/stable and why?

This is MNM all the way. I've enjoyed them from start to finish and they are one of my favorite tag-teams of all time not just new school.

3 Who would you like to see win the tag championships off Santino and Kozlov and why?

Nowadays there is a total of 2 teams in the WWE. Besides the champs, there are the Uso's and frankly I'm not a fan of either. So the solution would be a pairing of 2 talented guys that don't have anything in hands, and Ryder and Hawkins is a slim chance I would have to go with Hawkins and Swagger (I put Hawkins because he is on the same show as Swagger).

4What do you think WWE should do with their tag division?

This is very simple. Get talent, and there is no need to go outside, WWE has lots of talent in house, and build a storyline around the teams. It's a very simple recipe that will bring results.
