WWE recently started to release their ‘Top 50 Tag Teams of all time’ WWE Network specials, but as everyone who watched them noticed, the list is heavily gimmicked in order to make some of the current Tag Teams look way better than they really are, in order to give them some sort of legitimacy by putting them on the list with a lot of legendary Tag Teams.
Like them or not – which is up to everyone’s personal opinion – but if we’re talking legitimate historical relevance, modern day era Tag Teams like like The Street Profits or DIY obviously wouldn’t even be in the Top-200, let alone Top-50 as WWE falsely put them.
Keep in mind that this is a list of the greatest WWF/WWE Tag Teams of all time, so WCW Teams like Harlem Heat won’t be included and teams like The Road Warriors (which otherwise would clearly be the #1 on every list) or The Steiner Brothers aren’t ranked as high, as they would if the list would consider their NWA/WCW runs.
In order to keep things real, we only included “REAL” Tag Teams and did not include ‘Wrestler A & Wrestler B’ sort of teams.
Also factions/stables were not included, which included several ones, some of which even had 2 of their members win Tag Team gold, which also included (for example) Right To Censor, Evolution, The Corporation, The New Day, The Shield, The Un-Americans, … & more.
Pre-WWF Teams (before the WWWF/WWF name change in 1979) aren’t included either.
So here we go! Get ready for the most legitimate Top-50 WWF/E Tag Team list out there!
