Whether it's WCW, WWF, or WWE, we were raised off good ole fashioned wrassling. My favorite matches growing up were tag teams. Friday's Top 10 is the best wrestling alliances ever.
10B. Team Angle
The World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle, the coldest ankle lock, most strategic, best theme song chant, overall had to be a 96 in his prime. Shelton Benjamin was literally a larger, stronger, more athletic Shawn Michaels. Charlie Haas was a cold wrestler himself, he's a bigger, stronger version of Dolph Ziggler. Team Angle was annoying, but oh they were good; they were damn good.
10B. Team Angle
JBL and Farooq weren't the high flying duo that excites arena's, but they did kick some ass. Most people remember JBL for being the blonde, rich New York Stock guy, but back when he donned the all black, long hair "The Clothesline From Hell," was everything. This pair sits so low mainly because, Ron Simmons aka Farooq aka the "DAMN" guy, sucked. I don't remember ever doing anything but getting his ass beat up. Other than that they were great.
9. The Shield
Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose brought excitement to the arena in an NWO out of no where style. They were perfect villains. They were on some H.A.N.S whenever they would come out and jump whoever they wanted to in the ring. They sit so low on the list mainly because Ambrose sucks to me. Get in the ring, smack yourself in the face, tackle the opponent, throw wild punches and finish with a weak ass DDT. No thanks.
8. 2 Dudes w/ Attitudes
It was fun to see people getting jumped again in the WWE. |
8. 2 Dudes w/ Attitudes
Better known for who they are, Shawn Michaels and Kevin, The Diesel, Nash. Nobody else, nobody, was more cool than these two long blonde hair dudes. They were a perfect combo of thunder and lightening, and if Shawn Michaels hadn't blown up to such superstardom, they would've been one of the greatest tag team duo.
They were both better after this alliance but still great during their run. |
7. Los Guerrero’s
Chavo and Eddie Guerrerro were two of my favorites to watch in the prime of Smackdown. Whenever I heard "VIVA LA RAZA, We lie, we cheat, we steal! We don't care if you like us, everybody wants to fight us!" I knew I was bound to be entertained. Eddie was definitely the bigger of the two Guerrerros, but together their comedic chops and high flying was great TV.
"Viva La Raza!" |
6. The Filthy Animals
Composed of Konan, Rey Mysterio and Billie Kidman, and boy were they ever fun to watch on WCW. Mysterio and Kidman flew around the ring, Konan had on a bandanna, and they even made a rap song. Of course Mysterio and Kidman moved on to big things in the WWE, but these three brought a new level of energy to WCW.
D-VON! Get the TABLES! Anybody from age 21-40 knows exactly what's finna go down whenever they heard Bubba Ray holler this out. Some of the greatest tag team matches ever happened with the Dudley'z involved and boy did they break a lot of tables with their signature move the "3D." Along with Edge and Christian and the Hardy Boy'z, the Dudley'z carried the WWE Tag Team Division.
These guys brought fireworks to the WCW. |
5. The Dudley Boyz
GET THE TABLES! |
4. E&C
4. Edge and Christian are probably the most successful tag team duo ever. They won hella matches and were the chairs to the TLC matches with the Dudley'z and Hardy'z. They were never crowd favorites and they relished in those boos. Always finding a way to sneak to a win, or snatch your heart away by obliterating the Hardy'z from time to time, E&C were the big champions during the prime of Tag Team Wrestling.I hated their hair, and Christian's weak ass lesbian shirts. |
3. The Hardy Boyz
3. The Hardy Boyz were the most exciting tag team duo ever. It almost felt like they didn't give a damn about winning, they just wanted jump off the highest ladders, flip and land on some people. They started out both as crazy kids who did the most, but as time went on, Matt got fat and calmed down and Jeff did drugs and turned it to another notch. The real brothers broke up for a bit, both focusing on solo careers, both winning WWE Titles, but everyone will remember them for the paint, the flying and the Twist of Fate and Swanton Bombs!
These crazy dudes were perfect for the 2000s. |
2. NWO
2. How big was The NWO? They started on WCW and finished on WWE as the NWO. WCW played it out as they added on the Wolf Pack, and damn near every guy on the roster was affiliated, but on WWE they did it right. They kept it simple, Hollywood Hulk Hogan, Big Sexy Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall "Razor Ramon." Sure more people became members like the "Giant" aka Big Show, and even Shawn Michaels donned the black and white for a little bit (it went nowhere.) But NWO started the trend of WWE superstars getting jumped by a pack, and they damn sure make it look cool.
The first people to jump you in the WWE to jump the face and be cheered! |
1.DX
1. The biggest assholes in the business and the guys who had the most fun, D Generation X. Triple H and Shawn Michaels were the two biggest catalyst in the group, but Billy Gunz, Road Dogg and X-Pac were just as fun as those two. Having the coolest pose from a duo ever, and ruining playgrounds across the nation with kids hollering: 2 words...... "SUCK IT!" DX forever changed the game, and will always have a place in my heart!
