WWE.com Rates the top 50 Tag Teams in WWE History

[Sinclair Promotions]

Hold up. Don't post that comment just yet. Before you cover the WWE Universe's Facebook wall with missives like "What about Harlem Heat???," take a moment to read the guidelines the WWE Classics team followed when compiling this list.

1. Only WWE teams were eligible. Meaning no Gangstas, no Sting & Lex Luger and no Mulkey Brothers (sorry, Matt Striker).

2. Teams were rated only on their accomplishments while in WWE, so the achievements of The Beverly Brothers in the AWA had no bearing on their placement (or lack thereof) here.

3. Eligibility began with the first recognized World Tag Team Champions, Luke Graham & Tarzan Tyler, who won the titles on June 3, 1971.

4. Rankings were based on everything from longevity to cultural impact. Personal biases may have also crept in, as witnessed by an extended argument over the significance of Tony Garea & Dean Ho.

Okay, now that that's out of the way, here are the 50 greatest tag teams in WWE history as decided by a team of editors, a WWE Hall of Famer and a prevailing consensus that Too Cool ruled.

Some interesting placings to say the least, so far the count down run from #50 - #11, the rest of the list should be released at some point later today. Let the debates begin....lol

Why in the hell would the Gangstas be on a top 50 tag teams list to begin with? Oh, and Too Cool DID rule, btw.

Chuck & Billy? Lay-Cool? HA!

I'm ok with their choice...didn't think they'd go over the Hart Foundation or Demolition, but it's better than who I figured would be at #1 with D-X. Thankfully they weren't.

The top 10 was pretty good.....some of the ones below are rather strange.

I was overall impressed by the list. I think the Road Warriors/LOD were in a good place based entirely on their WWE/F run. If this list was of the top 50 Tag Teams in the big three promotions AWA/WCW/WWE then they would of course top the list.

Edge & Christian were a good choice for the top team, they along with the Dudley's & Hardy's really put tag team wrestling back on the WWE map a decade ago.
