A REAL American
Tag team specialist Billy Gunn has been in a tag team ever since the day that he walked into the WWF. From then to BG's last WWE days. He's tag with wrestlers such as the Big Show (Shoguns), Hardcore Holly, Jamie Noble, and even Chyna at one point. But Billy Gunn has always been apart of an epic tag team that get's over with the crowd and win tag team gold like a dynasty.
1. The Smoking Gunns: Billy & Bart Gunn are not brothers in real life. But they won the WWF tag team championships various times together as face's & as heel's.
2. The New Age Outlaws: Both Billy Gunn (or Rockabilly at that point) and Road Dogg (Double J Jesse James at that point) were getting lost on RAw alot of the time as singles wrestler's. So they were put together as a tag team and dubbed (by Jim Ross) the New Age Outlaws. They won there first tag team title's together from the Road Warriors and won them a second time as the newest members of D-Generation X, and so on. And there another tag team that won the belts as heels and as babyface's.
3. Billy & Chuck: One if not the most controversial tag team in WWE history, Billy & Chuck. Two guys wearing pink ring attire with matching headbands. And came off the us fans as...I don't wanna offend ANYONE, but "gay". With one angle with them on Smackdown having a "same-sex wedding". For the ratings of course but, ewww! And they entered the WWE brand extension as tag team champions.
I think that Billy Gunn is one of the most underrated wrestlers of all-time. The best that Billy Gunn has did solo was to win the WWE IC championship in 2000 against the late great Eddie Guerrero, but he would lose the strap to the late Chris Benoit a month later. And at Summerslam 1999 he wrestled the Rock in a main event type match. And the rest is in the books.
But which tag team will you remember Billy Gunn from in dept?
