Ok,I'm going to need help with the Indy tag teams everyone.

[justtxyank]

Why does it have to include indy tag teams? I mean, I don't see why it can't just be the top tag teams whether they are active, indy, foreign, etc. By forcing yourself to include a certain number of active teams, you are setting up the possibility that a deserving team that might win a round or so misses out so that some indy team that no one cares about can get skunked in round 1.

Wild Somoans
Miracle Violence Connection (Steve Williams/Terry Gordy)
Chono & Tenzan (Foreign)
Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard
The Rockers
Money Inc
The Eliminators
The Nasty Boys
Smokin Gunns

North-South Connection

[RKO_HBK]

By no means legendary, and only just a former team, but Cade and Murdoch maybe? They were 3-time World Tag Champions and pretty much a staple of the almost non-existent Raw tag division. I dunno, I may be alone in this but I think they should be in there.

[MattitudeV2]

This will be the play in game
Benoit and Malenko vs.London and Kendrick

Is this better.

Is it ok if I use this.

[justtxyank]

Is it ok if I use this.

Yeah, but I just threw it together, so you may want to make sure I didn't put someone twice or skip someone important or something. I'm not trying to take over your tournament though. I have my own personal bias so make sure you don't think my list is crazy lol.

[BIGJOSH]

I don't think Demolition should be at the top...they were nothing more than a Road Warriors rip-off.

[justtxyank]

I don't think Demolition should be at the top...they were nothing more than a Road Warriors rip-off.

Hard to deny their popularity and dominance though. Although I agree. I hated them. I put them there because I feel that's how history sees them.

[theoutlaw321]

Tend to agree. :(

[BIGJOSH]

I don't see where Demolition was that huge for a long period of time. They were only in the WWF for around 5 years. The Steiner Brothers and Harlem Heat were much more dominant.

I don't how I forgot about The Steiners...

My new top four seeds

1. Dudley Boyz/Team 3D
2. The Road Warriors
3. The Steiner Brothers
4. The Outsiders

I could dig this top four, but I definitely see the Road Warriors as number 1. No tag team has ever been the attraction they were. The Roadwarriors were main eventing cards for the NWA.

Edit: I just changed my rankings. They probably aren't totally accurate, don't even necessarily reflect how I feel completely, but to put a list together quickly that is decent I think it's a pretty nice job.

[theoutlaw321]

And the AWA, and Japan, and.........


And to think didn't they get their intial Jesus push due to a future clown's stupidity? lol

[Undertaker666]

Demolition were fantastic. The Road Warriors were a Demolition rip-off. :cool:

[theoutlaw321]

And the AWA, and Japan, and.........


And to clarify, I love the Warriors. They were great. I do think there were better in ring workers that don't get the due that they deserve here in the US, but I take nothing away from what they brought to the table.


And to think didn't they get their intial Jesus push due to a future clown's stupidity? lol

And this is in reference to memory. The push that they recieved intially was first going to a tag team that consisted of one Matt Borne and some guy named Marty Lunde. Of course, I am old(right dj?) and sometimes my memory fails me.

[theoutlaw321]

Demolition were fantastic. The Road Warriors were a Demolition rip-off. :cool:

Blasphemy!

[Undertaker666]

Blasphemy!

True though. :cool:

[Imarevenant]

Personally I think teams like The Rock and Sock Connection should be in the, play in matchup.

As entertaining as Rock and Sock was, they were together as a tag team for what? 3 months? I don't think it's right for them to be ahead of actual tag teams; I mean they were only thrust together in the first place to battle Taker and the ministry right? It's not like they were there to further Tag Team Wrestling, they were their to further the Main Event storyline going on at the time. It just so happened that Foley and The Rock had fantastic chemistry and had fun with the unusual pairing.

For them to be ahead of a team like say The Outlaws, it just doesn't feel right.


Also noticed you have The Brothers of Destruction on there twice

[MattitudeV2]

Mind me asking how old you are?

[MattitudeV2]

Mind me asking how old you are?

17 years old

[Guerrerofan777]

Now here's a question, do you have Mirror Syndrome?

[Self]

Really? Lance Storm and William Regal make it in, but The Impact Players don't? That seems... odd to me. Maybe because I'm a Classic ECW fan.

In my opinion, I would take out the majority of teams who don't have a team name. Alliances, such as Diesel and HBK, and Rated RKO are not the same as Tag Teams. This should be a tournament for the best of the best, flash in the pan partnerships shouldn't cut the mustard.

I also think seeding confuses matters. Although this process should be slowed down so as not to conflict with the singles tournament going on, everyone's views about "which is the better team" should go on DURING the voting phase, not before it. I would just pick the 32/64 most worthy teams, then randomly draw them into matches.

[MattitudeV2]

Now here's a question, do you have Mirror Syndrome?

No,Trust me I've looked through a lot of teams.

[djthefunkchris]

And to clarify, I love the Warriors. They were great. I do think there were better in ring workers that don't get the due that they deserve here in the US, but I take nothing away from what they brought to the table.

Yeah, you can tell by this question.
Mind me asking how old you are?
LOL... "How old are you?" In other words, why don't you realise the greatness of all my favorite tag teams from 1980?

Personally I'll change that because the impact players deserve a spot and some of the alliances are gone.

It has nothing to do with them being my favorites. It has to do with the greatness of said teams. ;)
