[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Londrick and it's not even close.

[Nicky Fives]

not a huge fan of Kingston..... not even close for me.....

[itsmeJD]

Easy winner. I hate little jimmy.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I quite liked both London and Kendrick. I like R-Truth but not really into Kingston and haven't seen much of their run as a team so went with London and Kendrick.

[Rammsteinmad]

London and Kendrick. They had a great run back in 2006 (I think that's when it was), but they also looked like a tag team, which R-Truth and Kingston, who I like, still reek of two singles guys thrown together.

[WinterDecay]

The Hooligans all the way ...

[Ultra Mantis]

Is this Juanctioned?

[Graveler]

not even close

[XCaliber]

Never liked the combo of R-Truth & Kofi so Londrick it is.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I miss Air Boom.

[Wolfpack423]

Yeah, I definitely think Paul London and Brian Kendrick were the better team. They had a great reign as WWE Tag Team Champions and they were a great high flying tandem. I also think the feud with MNM was one of the better tag team feuds. I think a match with Kofi Kingston and R-Truth would be a good match though.

[itsmeJD]

This one's getting close.

[Juan]

I thought you were just gonna pick up where I left off?

[Emperor Smeat]

London and Kendrick

[KaosDarksol]

London and Kendrick easily. Kofi and truth have overstayed their welcome as a team.

[RiX1024]

Londrick Kendon gets my vote.

[Road Warrior]

I thought you were just gonna pick up where I left off?

Nah, just figured I'd start all over.

[Road Warrior]

Also a little surprise at the landslide victory, guess I underestimated Londrick's popularity.

[#1-norm-fan]

Seriously thought Kingston and Truth would make it a little more competitive. They're becoming more of a "legit" tag team. I actually had to think about this for a second.

[itsmeJD]

You aren't a legit tag team until you wear matching outfits.

[itsmeJD]

Killer Bees, now THAT would give London/Kendrick some problems....B Brian Blair bitches...

[#1-norm-fan]

You aren't a legit tag team until you wear matching outfits.

The loophole to that rule is if you're both black.

[#1-norm-fan]

Killer Bees, now THAT would give London/Kendrick some problems....B Brian Blair bitches...

Did someone say... A LOT OF WORDS THAT START WITH B???

[itsmeJD]

Did someone say... A LOT OF WORDS THAT START WITH B???

The guys name is B Brian Blair. I said a guys name, and then called a group of people bitches affectionately. I'm not sure what you're going for here sir.

[itsmeJD]

The loophole to that rule is if you're both black.

This is not true

see: Harlem Heat, Doom.

[#1-norm-fan]

This is not true

see: Harlem Heat, Doom.

Both legit tag teams. The matching tights were not necessary. On account of the blackness.

[itsmeJD]

Please instruct me to said loophole. The fact that R-Truth and Kofi aren't considered a legit tag team is evidence enough that matching tights are required. Also, see Black Cena and Titus, a legit looking African American tag team, the Prime Time Playas.

[#1-norm-fan]

R-truth and Kofi are certainly a legit tag team.

[#1-norm-fan]

Jumpin' Jimmys

[itsmeJD]

False. They will go their separate ways as soon as they drop the tag belts to Daniel Bryan and Kane. Hell they don't even have a TEAM name. They are as legit as Kane and Rob Van Dam were.

[itsmeJD]

Jumpin' Jimmys

Lol, fuck Little Jimmy

[#1-norm-fan]

Please instruct me to said loophole.

Section 12 article 7 in the legit tag team rulebook.

[#1-norm-fan]

Hell they don't even have a TEAM name.

You mean like LONDON AND KENDRICK!?

Dun dun DUNNNNNN

[itsmeJD]

but they had MATCHING GEAR! You must have, one, the other, or BOTH! Color of skin is not considered the same gear, otherwise, all teams are legit.

[#1-norm-fan]

Are you ignoring multicultural teams? That is quite racist.

Neon green and black. You're welcome :wave:

[itsmeJD]

Not if they're wearing the same gear and/or have a team name.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Billy Gunn transcends rules.

[itsmeJD]

I'm unable to view that photo due to format I suppose. At work. What's it of so I may make up another reason as to why the two singles wrestlers aren't a team.

[itsmeJD]

Billy Gunn transcends rules.

Iggy did it, nevermind.

[Juan]

Nah, just figured I'd start all over.

Then why did you even bother to message me? lol

[#1-norm-fan]

Neon green and black. You're welcome :wave:

Oooh. Using the fact that I happened to pick one where Billy was wearing the green tights. Touche, sir...

http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/pictures/n/newageoutlaws/03.jpg

:wave:

[itsmeJD]

Matching t-shirts. Also had a name...the New Age Outlaws...one, the other, or both.

[#1-norm-fan]

I'm unable to view that photo due to format I suppose. At work. What's it of so I may make up another reason as to why the two singles wrestlers aren't a team.

Miz and Morrison

[itsmeJD]

For example, I can consider Air Boom for reasons stated above.

[#1-norm-fan]

Matching t-shirts. Also had a name...the New Age Outlaws...one, the other, or both.

So we're including shirts worn on the way to the ring as matching outfits huh? Alright...

[itsmeJD]

Miz and Morrison

I'll catch heat for this, but never really considered them much of a team either. That's not an excuse either. Just felt they threw Morrison with Miz after M & M.

[itsmeJD]

So we're including shirts worn on the way to the ring as matching outfits huh? Alright...

No, they had a team name. The New Age Outlaws.

[#1-norm-fan]

No, they had a team name. The New Age Outlaws.

Well, you argued the matching green so I was going with the "matching" thing.

[#1-norm-fan]

I'll catch heat for this, but never really considered them much of a team either. That's not an excuse either. Just felt they threw Morrison with Miz after M & M.

:eek:

[#1-norm-fan]

So would you consider Jeri-Show more of a tag team than Miz and Morrison?

[itsmeJD]

http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/16700000/Miz-Morrison-the-miz-michael-mizanin-16714493-330-339.jpgAlso....I counter your image, with an image.

[#1-norm-fan]

I see complete darkness. I agree. Tag team.

[itsmeJD]

It was an image of Miz and Morrsion in matching gear.

[#1-norm-fan]

Did they wear matching gear at some point? But you just said you don't consider them a tag team...

[#1-norm-fan]

You know who else wore matching gear at some point...

http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2012/08/SLAM12_PHOTO_1172.jpg

[itsmeJD]

I don't. They only did it once. Was just fucking around because it was the only one I could find at the moment.

[#1-norm-fan]

But seriously. Would you consider Jeri-Show to be more of a tag team than Miz and Morrison and Truth and Kofi?

[itsmeJD]

You know who else wore matching gear at some point...

http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2012/08/SLAM12_PHOTO_1172.jpg

Those are two different blues.....Truth in denim blue, Kofi in more of a maya blue

[itsmeJD]

But seriously. Would you consider Jeri-Show to be more of a tag team than Miz and Morrison and Truth and Kofi?

No I considered Jerishow more of an angle as they were only actually a team for about 6 months and were only put together because Edge was injured.

[itsmeJD]

But seriously. Would you consider Jeri-Show to be more of a tag team than Miz and Morrison and Truth and Kofi?

Though I will say I considered Miz and Morrison more of a team than Truth and Kofi.

[#1-norm-fan]

But Jeri-Show had a team name...

[#1-norm-fan]

They even matched a lot. Covering both of your requirements for a legit tag team.

[itsmeJD]

Are yo....ere? #1-w....can y...hear....m...

Connection bad.......I'll ca....ou..later.....

*Dialtone*

[#1-norm-fan]

:yes:

[itsmeJD]

In all seriousness, if you go by my rules of tag teams you WOULD have to consider JeriShow a tag team.

[itsmeJD]

Same for the 2-man power trip, or whatever Austin and Trips were calling themselves, though again, that was more angle than long term tag teaming.

[#1-norm-fan]

Two Dudes with Attitudes

[itsmeJD]

kinda groooooovyyy...(sorry california dreams popped in my head when I read that)

[itsmeJD]

I am of the belief you need a team name/matching attire, one or the other to be a certified legit tag team and not two singles guys tossed together for little reason.

[#1-norm-fan]

Point is, it's a subjective "feel" thing as opposed to something you throw two rules on. You either feel like Kofi and Truth have established themselves as a legit team or you don't. I don't buy the idea that they can randomly come up with a name as a team and suddenly everything changes because of how they're announced.

[#1-norm-fan]

I am of the belief you need a team name/matching attire, one or the other to be a certified legit tag team and not two singles guys tossed together for little reason.

How about Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie?

[#1-norm-fan]

Their names go together perfectly. Charlie was even named with the intention of teaming with Cactus. No team name though, no matching attire and they weren't exactly thrown together for no reason.

[Road Warrior]

Then why did you even bother to message me? lol

I probably would've just started where you left off if you would've replied back. Alas you did not and therefore I made the decision to start off fresh.

[itsmeJD]

How about Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie?

Nope, didn't see it as a tag team.

[itsmeJD]

Point is, it's a subjective "feel" thing as opposed to something you throw two rules on. You either feel like Kofi and Truth have established themselves as a legit team or you don't. I don't buy the idea that they can randomly come up with a name as a team and suddenly everything changes because of how they're announced.

Yeah I get your point, and can understand if you feel that way, but I grew up during the era where tag teams HAD at least one of those 2 rules when teams were formed. There's been such a watering down of what makes a "team" that it's jaded me in terms of what defines a team to me. There are exceptions to the rule, but in general I consider a tag team more often than not should possess one of those 2 specs.

[#1-norm-fan]

I think we grew up watching the same era. And tag teams didn't always have at least one of those 2 rules. There may have been more tag teams that did but there were also still a lot who didn't.

[#1-norm-fan]

Remember Owen Hart and Yokozuna? So fucking random. lol

[itsmeJD]

lol, they were random, and I fucking hated that. That was around the time they began getting away from the "team" concept. You had Smoking Gunns, New Rockers, New Blackjacks, etc and then fucking Yoko and Owen.

[itsmeJD]

There are exceptions to the rule, but in general I consider a tag team more often than not should possess one of those 2 specs.
:wave:

They even made Greg Valentine dye his hair black and dress like a fucktard to team with HTM.

[Road Warrior]

Yoko and Owen were random, but they were 2 time tag champs and defended their titles against multiple teams. Even though they were random do you consider them a tag team ?

[#1-norm-fan]

Even before that though, you also had former tag team champions Sparky Plugg and The 1-2-3 Kid.

[itsmeJD]

Same era, mid 90's. 95/96. I zoned out during that era because it was atrocious lol. I was referring more to the 80's WWF.

[#1-norm-fan]

How do you feel it effects the "legit tag team" label if the two guys have a common manager?

[itsmeJD]

Even before that though, you also had former tag team champions Sparky Plugg and The 1-2-3 Kid.

Though for the record, I didn't consider them a team either and forgot they even held the belts.

[itsmeJD]

How do you feel it effects the "legit tag team" label if the two guys have a common manager?

If they are part of a stable I don't usually consider them an official tag team. Who were you thinking of....million dollar corporation?

[itsmeJD]

I'm enjoying this dialogue by the way.

[itsmeJD]

If they are part of a stable I don't usually consider them an official tag team. Who were you thinking of....million dollar corporation?

Now if they were teaming PRIOR to joining the stable, could be a different story:D

[#1-norm-fan]

If they are part of a stable I don't usually consider them an official tag team. Who were you thinking of....million dollar corporation?

Or The Heenan Family

[#1-norm-fan]

Now if they were teaming PRIOR to joining the stable, could be a different story:D

Would you consider Owen and The Bulldog more of a tag team than Owen and Yokozuna?

[Road Warrior]

So would you consider The Colossal Connection ( Haku and Andre) a team then ?

[itsmeJD]

Yes, see: official Tag Team name.

To elaborate: They were originally just members of the Heenan family, however, they formed a team and had a team name, hence, they became a tag team. Eventually Heenan would abandon Andre and Andre turned, ending the team.

[Road Warrior]

Yes, see: official Tag Team name.

But you wouldn't consider Owen and Yoko a team ?

[itsmeJD]

No. They did not have a team name. They were just Yoko and Owen who were teaming because Cornette managed them both.

[itsmeJD]

The missing element? Team name.

[itsmeJD]

They could have gone with Camp Cornette which was the stable name, but that would have to involve there not being a stable and Vader and Bulldog having to "kick rocks".

[#1-norm-fan]

Would you consider Owen and The Bulldog more of a tag team than Owen and Yokozuna?

[itsmeJD]

Another example similar would be the Twin Towers, who consisted technically of a fat white "african" and an evil cop. They had that name and therefore were a team.

[Road Warrior]

The missing element? Team name.

But then that would exclude a team like Doug Furnas and Phil Lafon or if I wanted to include an older team like Ricky Steamboat and jay Youngblood, who were 5 time champions

[itsmeJD]

But then that would exclude a team like Doug Furnas and Phil Lafon or if I wanted to include an older team like Ricky Steamboat and jay Youngblood, who were 5 time champions

No, furnas and lafon had matching tights. *See: Matching ring gear*

As far as Steamboat and Youngblood, I didn't watch that era so I can't recall if their shit matched or not.

[Road Warrior]

Or even Steve Williams and Terry Gordy, although i guess they technically dressed the same.

[itsmeJD]

Bulldog and Owen were the same as Yoko and Owen. Stable mates that teamed up.

[#1-norm-fan]

Another example similar would be the Twin Towers, who consisted technically of a fat white "african" and an evil cop. They had that name and therefore were a team.

I'm not seeing the difference between this and JeriShow...

[Road Warrior]

No, furnas and lafon had matching tights. *See: Matching ring gear*

As far as Steamboat and Youngblood, I didn't watch that era so I can't recall if their shit matched or not.

Yeah, I figured most people on here didn't watch much before late 80's so I was only gonna include teams from that era and beyond.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Kane and X-Pac had no common links but I loved the fuck out of them together.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I guess Kane didn't really have a common link with any of his partners outside of Taker really. But I enjoyed him and X-Pac the most. They were a legit team in my eyes.

[Road Warrior]

Kane and X-Pac had no common links but I loved the fuck out of them together.

That brings up a good question. Who was more of a team, Kane and X-Pac or Kane and RVD ?

[itsmeJD]

In all seriousness, if you go by my rules of tag teams you WOULD have to consider JeriShow a tag team.

[itsmeJD]

That brings up a good question. Who was more of a team, Kane and X-Pac or Kane and RVD ?

They were the same. They were both put together for storyline purposes with no real plan to keep them together as a long-term team. As Iggy mentioned, the Kane/X-Pac was the better story IMO.

[#1-norm-fan]

I just realized Edge and Christian by itsmeJD's guidelines are not a legit tag team.

[#1-norm-fan]

It's weird though. You made the rules of how you consider a team a legit team. Then you broke them because you don't consider JeriShow a team but you admit that your rules do actually make JeriShow a tag team despite not considering them a tag team. lol

[Road Warrior]

They were the same. They were both put together for storyline purposes with no real plan to keep them together as a long-term team. As Iggy mentioned, the Kane/X-Pac was the better story IMO.

I agree. Teams that were solely brought together for storyline purposes won't be included. Even though some of them have team names, like Jerishow, Rated RKO, Two Man Power Trip, Dudes with Attitude and so on.

[itsmeJD]

Road Warrior gets it.

[itsmeJD]

I just realized Edge and Christian by itsmeJD's guidelines are not a legit tag team.

This would definitely be an exception that doesn't abide by my rules. They were stablemates who teamed. At the start of the career they did have the trenchcoats and similar tight styles, but as they moved on the styles changed. The eventually looked nothing alike gear wise. Their wiki technically refers to them as E&C but even I don't recall that EVER being their team name.

WWF Fan may have found a loophole in my logic, because I definitely consider them a tag team.

[#1-norm-fan]

I GET it.

Still... You've said you don't consider JeriShow a tag team but you also admitted that by your rules, they are a tag team. They're YOUR rules. Why make them to admittedly break them? lol

[itsmeJD]

If you only apply the two rules listed earlier they are a tag team. I do not take into account however, tag teams that were created for the purpose of an angle.

Also:
Win if you can, lose if you must, but ALWAYS cheat.
Rules were made to be broken.

[#1-norm-fan]

WWF Fan may have found a loophole in my logic, because I definitely consider them a tag team.

Eeexcellent. *Rubs hands together.*

But really, that's what I meant earlier by "rules" being kinda silly since it really just comes down to a feeling. I don't know exactly why Edge and Christian are a legit tag team. I could dissect it but it surely wouldn't come down to something so simple as fitting under two or three guidelines.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I think all these thrown together teams should still be put up in the polls. Obviously minor alliances and such shouldn't really be considered, but if they were considered a tag team by WWE (edit:and all organisations as well for that matter), regardless of how we view them, they should be used.

[#1-norm-fan]

I also definitely consider Owen and The Bulldog to have been more of a legit team than Owen and Yokozuna.

[#1-norm-fan]

I think all these thrown together teams should still be put up in the polls. Obviously minor alliances and such shouldn't really be considered, but if they were considered a tag team by WWE, regardless of how we view them, they should be used.

I agree. For purposes of the poll, let anyone who teamed together on a remotely regular basis in.

[Juan]

Is this Juanctioned?

No.

[itsmeJD]

Ehh I guess I have to agree to an extent. I do believe the guidelines for the most part hold true, but more to older generations. Tag team wrestling is a farce nowadays.

[itsmeJD]

I think all these thrown together teams should still be put up in the polls. Obviously minor alliances and such shouldn't really be considered, but if they were considered a tag team by WWE (edit:and all organisations as well for that matter), regardless of how we view them, they should be used.

They can, but they will be slaughtered.

[Road Warrior]

Eeexcellent. *Rubs hands together.*

They're probably considered legit because of the length of time they teamed together and that they were multiple time tag champs.

[itsmeJD]

They're probably considered legit because of the length of time they teamed together and that they were multiple time tag champs.

Or they were basically together as a team for a large portion of their careers....in comparison to other make shift, no name teams.

[itsmeJD]

Longevity I've also underestimated in what I determine to be a tag team.

[Road Warrior]

Or they were basically together as a team for a large portion of their careers....in comparison to other make shift, no name teams.

:y:

[#1-norm-fan]

They're probably considered legit because of the length of time they teamed together and that they were multiple time tag champs.

I considered them a tag team heading into WrestleMania 2000 and they'd only been teaming together for just over a year.

[Road Warrior]

I considered them a tag team heading into WrestleMania 2000 and they'd only been teaming together for just over a year.

Yeah but they weren't established singles stars before then, as with all the other teams mentioned.

[#1-norm-fan]

They can, but they will be slaughtered.

I bet The Rock 'n' Sock Connection could make some noise.

[itsmeJD]

Yup

[itsmeJD]

I bet The Rock 'n' Sock Connection could make some noise.

Only because of the Rock sheep that feel he's the second coming of Christ.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Rated RKO, Head Cheese, Two Man Power Trip, Mega Powers, Brothers of Destruction are just a small sample of "two guys thrown together" teams that will likely get a bunch of votes.

[#1-norm-fan]

Yeah but they weren't established singles stars before then, as with all the other teams mentioned.

How about Jericho and Benoit?

[itsmeJD]

Well for the record the original comment was in jest...shoulda thrown some shifty-eyes on there. I don't always agree with the TP-Dub votes.

[#1-norm-fan]

Rated RKO, Head Cheese, Two Man Power Trip, Mega Powers, Brothers of Destruction are just a small sample of "two guys thrown together" teams that will likely get a bunch of votes.

How about Jericho and Benoit?

[Road Warrior]

How about Jericho and Benoit?

I feel like Benoit and Jericho were both already established stars. Benoit had already been WCW World Champion and Jericho was already over as a singles star, the team also had no longevity.

[#1-norm-fan]

I feel like Benoit and Jericho were both already established stars.

Well, obviously. They had a pretty memorable little run though. And they'd definitely get some votes.

[Road Warrior]

Well, obviously. They had a pretty memorable little run though. And they'd definitely get some votes.

I agree, but again I feel they were solely brought together to challenge the TMPT. There was really no plan to develop them as a team, therefore they probably won't be included.

[#1-norm-fan]

Are you including Kane and X-Pac and Kane and RVD?

[Road Warrior]

Are you including Kane and X-Pac and Kane and RVD?

? Haven't made that decision yet. If I did include one of the two it would be Kane and X-Pac. There's a lot of teams I'll have to make that decision on, especially in WCW.

[#1-norm-fan]

I would like to request Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas' presence in this. They will likely get destroyed but they were awesome.

[KIRA]

I was a fan of Kingston but after his main event push died my enthusiasm slowly dwindled (I still have foolish hope) but any way Londrick wins for me Kofi and R-truth just come across as two totally separate personalities neither complements the other and being black guys is the only thing they have in common.

[WinterDecay]

I would just like to point out the the Mounties and Strike Force both had matching gear and a team name .... and both sucked.

So it would seem by contrapositive logic, that one does not need matching gear or a team name in order to be an entertaining tag team.

With that said, creative could at least start doing their jobs and try to come up with team names for these guys.

I recall from London and Kendrick's shoot that they wanted the team name to be the Hooligans. But this was after they started smoking ... so who knows.

[#1-norm-fan]

Londrick would have been just fine.

[#1-norm-fan]

With that said, creative could at least start doing their jobs...

I've come to find that this is just too much to ask.

Who are The Mounties ?

[Juan]

I probably would've just started where you left off if you would've replied back. Alas you did not and therefore I made the decision to start off fresh.

Please start BTT from where it left off.

[Mercenary]

Who are The Mounties ?

....

http://cdn.bleacherreport.net/images_root/slides/photos/001/907/704/Quebecers_display_image.jpg?1329007280


The Quebecers were a heel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heel_%28professional_wrestling%29) professional wrestling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_wrestling) tag team (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_team) in the World Wrestling Federation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wrestling_Entertainment) from 1993 to 1994 and again in 1998 that consisted of Jacques Rougeau (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Rougeau) and Pierre (Carl Ouellet) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Ouellet). They also worked as the Amazing French Canadians in World Championship Wrestling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Championship_Wrestling) from 1996 to 1997.

[#1-norm-fan]

I think what he's trying to say is "The Mounties" is what he called "The Quebecers".

[Road Warrior]

I know who the Quebecers are, I've just never heard them called The Mounties.

[Road Warrior]

Please start BTT from where it left off.

Nope, like I said, maybe if you would of replied we could of come to some kind of agreement and discussed what BTT was going to be, but as it is, it's mine now. Besides you seem to have your hands full with match of the week.

[Road Warrior]

Please start BTT from where it left off.

[Bocephus Black]

Bocephus Black be backin tha Bolsheviks baby. They da best!

[The Condor]

Ken Shamrock and Big Bossman were part of a stable and held the titles for a few months, does that qualify?

[Double D]

Disco Inferno and Alex Wright for the win here. Or how about Norton and Steiner, they were kind of an NWO tag team, right? I also hate the thrown together tag teams, and especially the "Token Black Guy Team vs. Token Latino Guy Team for the titles!"...voted for London and Kendrick, they had a sweet valet/manager in Ashley Massaro too if I remember correctly. Always liked "The" Brian Kendrick, appreciated his cocky-rockstar-esque strut and whatnot. On a side note, anyone else think he looks strikingly like Kurt Cobain?

[Double D]

Who are the two who voted Kingston and Truth? Would enjoy hearing their argument, from a curiosity standpoint I suppose.

[XCaliber]

The Quebecers > R-Truth and Kofi based solely on their entrance theme alone heh.

[LewisTheTruest]

Londrick. Don't see any recent teams making the cut due to current state of the divison. This comp'll be interesting

[Destor]

lol...the "define wrestler" argument is now "define tag team." let me make it simple: if they ever tagged together theyre a tag team. doesnt mean they were a good one.

If I don't see Sheamus and "Mean" Gene Okerlund in this thing, I'll be pissed.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Even if this Better Tag Team is not Juan approved, I think you should still incorporate the previous Better Tag Team history into it.

[Juan]

Nope, like I said, maybe if you would of replied we could of come to some kind of agreement and discussed what BTT was going to be, but as it is, it's mine now. Besides you seem to have your hands full with match of the week.

Don't be a dick.

[#1-norm-fan]

it's mine now.

I thought this was supposed to wait until Best Wrestler was finished anyway. What's the rush?

[Road Warrior]

No rush really, just had the idea for a while and there didn't seem to be a lot going on in the forums lately, that's all.

[Juan]

Exactly.

Please start BTT from where it left off.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I mean why give Juan a deadline at all if there's no rush? And why when he did respond are you now like "sorry dude it's mine now ahahahahahahaha"

seems kinda dickish to me

[Road Warrior]

Really ? Do you think by starting back up now it's somehow infringing on Best Wrestler ? Not really sure what the problem is, as the only one's who seem to be complaining about it are you and Juan. As far as the it's mine now comment, it was made as joke because I really don't take this stuff that seriously.

[Juan]

I really don't take this stuff that seriously.

Then why not start it from where it left off?

You saying "no, you didn't reply in time" kinda pokes holes in your "I don't take this stuff seriously" story.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I don't give a shit what you do. I'm just asking a question based on previous conversations had about starting this up again. And because it looked like you were being a dick to Juan for no real reason, I decided to speak up. Since Juan expressed interest in doing this again, wouldn't it make sense for you guys to work together?

[Juan]

Since Juan expressed interest in doing this again, wouldn't it make sense for you guys to work together?

Yes, of course, but I didn't respond in the allotted time, you see.

[Road Warrior]

Then why not start it from where it left off?

You saying "no, you didn't reply in time" kinda pokes holes in your "I don't take this stuff seriously" story.

What difference does it make ? And you can tell I how seriously I take it by the fact that I've been a member of the forums for going on 6 years and have under 400 posts.

[Juan]

What difference does it make ?

I dunno, I'd like to think that the "work" thedamndest and I put into these things wasn't completely for nothing.

[Road Warrior]

It would make sense to work together if someone like creating a poll every 3 days was a two man job, but it's really not. How much input do you think is needed in deciding something that doesn't take a lot of thought process.

[Juan]

It's a simple request. I don't see what the big deal is. You can keep doing them yourself

[Juan]

Basically, it's like I said... don't be a dick.

[Road Warrior]

I dunno, I'd like to think that the "work" thedamndest and I put into these things wasn't completely for nothing.

Fair enough, if it's really a big deal then okay I'll go back and start it over from where you left off.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Because it's not about the workload, it's about sharing and not being a dick.

[Juan]

I think the last Better Tag Team left off on #89 and had the Hardy's going into #90 in the Hall of Fame round.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I think we should all discuss this over a nice mango berry smoothie.

[Road Warrior]

Okay I'll check it out. I f you would like to work together on this thing then that's okay, your input would be welcomed. I'll even apologize for the it's mine now comment, it was meant as a joke.

[Juan]

I can break in my new CM Punk flask

[Juan]

No worries man.

I'll be here if you need input, but this baby is yours now.

[Road Warrior]

:yes:

[Road Warrior]

No worries man.

I'll be here if you need input, but this baby is yours now.

You sure ? Like I said, didn't mean to be a dick and I'm always open to hearing someone else's opinion.

[Juan]

Yeah I'm sure. We can work together if you ever need some help picking a good opponent or if you need me to post one if you're not around or something, but like I said, it's all you now.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Woo progress!

[Road Warrior]

Actually now that I think of it, here's a question already. I can't remember but how long do you keep a team out of rotation once they lose a round ?

[Juan]

It's 50 rounds if I remember correctly, same as Better Wrestler.

[CSL]

pussies, I wanted to see a war, maybe Better Tag Team and Better Tag Team: Wolfpac running concurrently or something

[Ruien]

You guys need to give Road Warrior a break. Dude is making a poll that has not been done in like a year. Let him do his own thing.

[CSL]

you say after it's all been quite amicably settled

[Pintint]

Kofi/Truth because of Lil'Jimmy.

[itsmeJD]

Kofi/Truth because of Lil'Jimmy.

I officially hate you.

[#1-norm-fan]

I officially hate you.

You hate an invisible boy.

(Lil' Jimmy, not Pintint.)

[Destor]

If I don't see Sheamus and "Mean" Gene Okerlund in this thing, I'll be pissed.

shitty random tag teams are still tag teams.

[Destor]

also i think this who owns BTTT debate is really funny. dont see me undercutting supreme...

[CSL]

going to turn heel and post the final the second the semi finishes whilst wearing all black

[Destor]

LOL
