Worst Tag Teams with popular singles stars
 
They can't all be Rock 'n Sock Connection.

I hated Tazz/Raven so much. It was just such a lazy pairing that ultimately ended up doing nothing for either guy.

Big Show/Undertaker was lame too.

Was going to say Al Snow and Mankind too, but really Al Snow felt like he was at his lowest around that time.

OMG this 1000%. I just remember Undertaker giving a promo how him and Show rode motorcycles to the desert, and Shows bike was broke, Taker left him there, and Show killed snakes, are them, and made boots out of their skin, then carried the motorcycle on his back as he walked out of the desert.

That SOOOOOOOO happened lol

It didn't make sense to me that Big Show needed a mentor, it was just too dumb.

Brothers of Destruction were pretty lame, too.

Jordan 05-06-2018 01:05 AM

Brothers of Destruction were awesome and evil Taker manipulating Big Show was also awesome. Big Show and Taker vs X-Pac and Kane is an underrated match.

Yeah, I couldn't get into that one either.

The combination of DDP and Nash in WCW didn't gel with me.

What isn't awesome?

Like, tge problem is the Big Show/Undertaker team wasn't as good as its individual parts. Big Show by himself was better and Undertaker by himself was better.

Also I HATED Biker Taker.

Don't tell me anything with X-Pac in it is underrated.

Lex Luger killed that team. He does that.

Can we count Money Inc? They were horrendous. Maybe the most boring team I've ever seen.

I.R.S. was a classic, so I think it counts.

That's not being neutral.

Neutral doesn't mean not having opinions! It means nit getting involved. Or being chemically inert.

Ruien 05-06-2018 02:19 PM

F you Gertner. It does not count.

Eat it Swiss.

Swiss Ultimate 05-06-2018 02:21 PM

As the sole neutral arbitrator of TPWW as well as being completely objective I must give the point to Gertner.

I will sell guns to you both, however.

Shisen Kopf 05-06-2018 03:11 PM

Was not a fan of JeriShow

"Weeeeeeeellll, it's the BIG BIG BIG BIG SHOOOOW"

Cool King 05-06-2018 03:23 PM

Seriously though.

I wasn't too keen on them myself at first but I grew to like them quite a bit.

They played their roles well, with Jericho being the small scheming one and de facto leader of the duo and Big Show being the big guy and muscle of the team.

Cool King 05-06-2018 03:23 PM

However, I always think of what the team of Jericho & Edge would have been like if Edge didn't get injured.

I was really looking forward to seeing them as a team as they were both my favourite wrestlers but hey, it just wasn't meant to be I guess.

How bad were Edge's injuries anyway? He's one of the few people who left the business young that I don't really know why.

Cool King 05-06-2018 03:49 PM

He got diagnosed with Cervical Spinal Stenosis and doctors wouldn't clear him to wrestle, as doing so would run the risk of him getting neck-down paralysis or even dying if he took a bump that was too hard.

As terrible as this sounds: all wrestlers should get injured this bad at a certain age so we don't have 60 year old fucks in tights in the ring.

Swiss Ultimate 05-06-2018 05:23 PM

How old was Flair when he faced Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania?

No love for Money Inc.? Oh the humanity! I can see how one would say they were boring though.

Bad News Gertner 05-06-2018 07:06 PM

Their matches always had the same finish too: long boring heat segment by Money Inc, followed by a big babyface comeback, and lastly Money Inc leave the ring with the titles and get themselves counted out.

It's funny during the Monday Night War WWE totally played up the fact their roster wasn't all old. Now I think WWE roster is even older then WCW was in their heyday.

WWW needs to find and push a guy that is 25 or younger if they really want to build to the future.

Problem is also they do have s sign Indy guys or former other sports guys that are in their 30's.

Even Adam Cole is already about to be 29.

Complain about Orton and Cena all you want, but at least WWE made a decision on young guys and they were able to be too level stars full time for 12+ years.

Mr. Nerfect 05-06-2018 07:57 PM

Show-Gunns. Oh, you said popular singles stars?

Mr. Nerfect 05-06-2018 07:57 PM

Rated-RKO were boring as fuck.

It was an excuse for Jericho to interrupt. WHAT'S MY NAME, BITCH!!!!!

Sixx 05-07-2018 12:44 AM

Surely not one of the worst, but I never got into the Rock'n'Sock Connection.

It was weird.

I vaugely do, but what I don't remember is if it was before or after the Jersey Triad (in case y'all forgot, DDP, Kanyon, and Bam Bam, where DDP was in total douchebag heel mode). Methinks before.

The initial paring of Kidman and Lance Storm. It really felt like they were just tossed together for no other reason than because they were both relatively new to WCW.

Bad News Gertner 05-07-2018 08:45 AM

It was after. They were called the Insiders. Pretty sure it happened in mid-late 2000. I definitely remember them tagging on Starcade 2000
