An idea I've actually been kicking around trying to do for a while. This is the DWB All-Time Tag Team Tournament. 32 teams, as ranked by a pretty large polling (14) of wrestling scholars over at 411mania we'll be entered into a single elimination tournament to have a little fun, and see how the Tag Teams measure up here among OUR wrestling scholars. I'll give you the full bracket here, and will post probably 4 matchups a day. Please try to vote for all of them, so we get a full polling for everyone. I know we have alot of voting going on around here lately, but I really wanted to do this , and 411mania took care of the hardest part, seeding them.

You can use this link and the drop down menus at the bottom for reference to teams, members, title histories, etc.

And please, no bitching about the source, or about their list, or any of that. 14 people is quite a few to take the results from, so I think it is a pretty accurate list regardless. Discussion is ALWAYS welcomed though, and we have some pretty awesome first round matchups:

1. Road Warriors
32. Fabulous Ones

17. Hardy Boys
16. The Outsiders

9. Brain Busters
24. The Fantastics

25. Doom
8. Dudley Boys

5. Rock N Roll Express
28. The Funk Brothers

21. Minnesota Wrecking Crew
12. Hollywood Blondes

13. Demolition
20. The Brisco Brothers

29. Los Guerreros
4. The Midnight Express

3. Steiner Brothers
30. Wild Samoans

19. Miracle Violence Connection
14. Edge & Christian

11. New Age Outlaws
22. Owen Hart & Davey Boy Smith

27. Americas Most Wanted
6. Hart Foundation

7. Fabulous Freebirds
26. The Eliminators

23. Money, Inc.
10. The Rockers

15. Harlem Heat
18. Nasty Boys

31. Los Gringos Locos
2. British Bulldogs

I'm assuimg the version of the Fabulous Freebirds included here isn't te Hayes/Garvin combo from 1989-1992. :D

Some interesting picks, and I see Eddie's death managed to get people to B.S. their way into thinking Eddie/Chavo, who were a team for MAYBE a year (as a serious team) is in the Top 32 of all time.

Wouldn't that be Eddie / Art Barr?

EDIT: Woops, missed Los Gurerreros. That's rediculous.

Yeah, I wanted to use my creative liscense to boot a few of these and include a few that just missed -- but I decided I was gonna try and leave my thoughts out of it.

The lack of Puro is again pissing me off...

We all know the Holy Demon Army would mop up.

Wasn't Dale Torborg, the KISS Demon in that group?

Only if you want to call Toshiaki Kawada or Akira Taue that. And even then, you would recieve a stiff kick or nodowa otoshi...

Well, it IS a bit unfair to include the Puro teams....................especially because most of them just teamed in tourneys and such.............they weren't consistantly tag team ONLY for years like many of the ones on this list.

New set of matchups are being upped in just a minute.

Results: Road Warriors d Fabulous Ones, Outsiders d Hardys, Brain Busters d Fantastics, Dudley Boys d Doom

And I'm slightly altering the topic title for navigation purposes.

Where are the Fabulous Kangaroos?

The 2nd batch of polls has closed, with the results as followed: Rock N Roll Express d Funk Brothers, Hollywood Blondes d Minnesota Wrecking Crew, Midnight Express d Los Guerreros, and in the first upset of the tournament, The Brisco Brothers d Demolition.

One more note: I've posted the next 8 matchups because I'll be away from my computer on Sat night. These will all remain open until Sunday night, when Round 2 begins!!! Thanks for all your contributions and votes, by the way.

Round 1 has concluded. The final set of results:

Steiners d Wild Samoans, Miracle Violence Connection d Edge & Christian, New Age Outlaws d Owen & Bulldog, Hart Foundation d America's Most Wanted, Fabulous Freebirds d The Eliminators, Harlem Heat d Nasty Boys on WCW Saturday Night, British Bulldogs d Los Gringos Locos, and Money Inc and The Rockers go to an all-too familiar early 90's time limit draw.

Round 2, goin up.

Did you mean British Bulldogs defeat Los Gringos Locos? Hm, I don't think I voted in the Money Inc./Rockers poll.

Yes I did. I apologize for the fuckup, and it has been edited out.

So what happens as a result of the draw?

Just a blank space on the board. The next round opponent will get a bye.
