I was actually joking. My top 4 are all obscure teams from the 20’s-50’s from the Mid-Atlantic region. To be fair, the Bucks, and definitely the Briscoe, have performed in relative obscurity compared to the teams I named and and even the others you listed. I get the over-the-top enthusiasm for all things AEW due to it being a the first viable competition to WWE in nearly two decades, but as of now, the only all-timer of any sort on their roster is Chris Jericho. |

I didn’t know u were the one who mentioned steiner & midnights. I definitely don’t think that of them.
ROH was probably the closest thing talent wise to an old NWA during WWEs solo run at the top, so I don’t hold it against teams that weren’t in WWE or weren’t old enough to wrestle in the old days w NWA AWA WCCW & WWF.
They also were very successful in NJPW. And the quality of the teams & matches that both of these teams had, far exceeds anything WWE has done w tag teams. I feel I must mention that NXT had an amazing tag division for years or else that may be an issue. So Age aside an the fact there was only one main promotion for the last 20 years & not four isn’t a reason to leave them off a list.
I figured w all the teams we mentioned between us that there weren’t many others in contention. I also realize a lot of people on here don’t like modern wrestling and some fetishize the roaring twenties. So that was me waiting for someone trying to add “the Flying Trapeze Brothers” or Moe &Joe Black to the list.
I like the Midnights way more than a few of the teams I put on mine. They were cool af and really innovative. And Cornette is only topped by Heenan for me.

I really liked this week's episode of Dynamite. Easily the best wrestling show I've watched this week.
Omega/Page v Mox/PAC was fantastic. These guys were into it as much as the crowd. Exciting stuff.
Darby Allin wrestling with his hands taped behind his back was impressive. That kid is nuts.
Overall a pretty good show EXCEPT the big, brown, smelly stain in the middle of the show that saw Pentagon lower himself by selling for f'ing Marko Stunt. Penta goes from murdering Chris Daniels to getting smacked around and made to look like a fool by the equivalent of a 12 year old. What an embarrassment. Just as AEW starts winning me over, they do something like this. Fail.
Aubrey Edwards trying to intervene during a street fight was also stupid. The ref in a specialty match should go unnoticed until there is a pin to count. AEW better learn from that Hell In The Cell fiasco.

The number one thing I don’t like in tag matches is when one guy makes the opponents partner do a move to him.
Other than that, a good show once again w Omega/Page v PAC/Moxley as my favorite, along w the opener.

AEW better learn from that Hell In The Cell fiasco. So aggravating. Also, refs in no DQ matches who count rope breaks or warn against using closed fists lol like tf??? |

The announcers did say something about their being rope breaks in the street fight, which I thought was odd.
