What do you mean by "big 3" exactly? Didn't really know so I went with a tag team wrestling legend.

I assume he meant WWE, WCW, ECW.

The last question though, I'm not sure what a trope is lol

Trope means something somebody says so many times its a catchphrase/joke.

Yeah I probably should have looked that up before answering. Lol I thought it meant a team he managed.

Trope can also be an action I believe

Thought about this for 3 hours, got question 9 wrong

1. Name a team that won the NXT Tag Team titles. *
2. Name a wrestler that won tag team gold for at least 2 of the "big 3". *
3. Name a team that has held tag team gold for both a US and a foreign promotion. *
4. Name a tag team whose members were relatives. *
5. Name a tag team whose members were "relatives". *
6. Name a team that held the NWA World Tag Team titles.
7. Name a team that had only one WWF/E Tag Team title reign. *
8. Name a wrestler who is a multi-time IWGP Tag Team champion. *
9. Some promotions have an extra set of tag belts for a specific part of the roster - name a team that won a set of "special" tag titles. *
10. Time for a tag team match, playa! Enter your favorite Teddy Long trope. *

Top 3 Most Frequently Guessed Responses
1(T). NXT Tag Team Champions: Adrian Neville and Corey Graves - 4
1(T). Won Tag Titles in both US and foreign company: The Young Bucks - 4
1(T). Tag team "relatives": Hardcore and Crash Holly - 4

Scoring notes:

I counted Matt Hardy for the big 3 question as winning the WCW Tag belts under the WWF banner would be a correct answer in kayfabe, plus I did a similar thing with the WCW Title in previous round. By that same token, Sean O'Haire wouldn't count because he won the WCW Tag belts actually in WCW and simply carried them into WWF with him.

Innovator put "Andersons" for the "relatives" question, which would've been fine except Arn/Ole and Ole/Gene had already been listed as separate responses. So I was count it as 3 points but then I remembered CW and Pat Anderson would also count. Wound up being immaterial to the score anyway.

The special tag belts question tripped a lot of people up, as did people listing a solo person when I asked for a team and vice versa.

As usual, my joke questions aren't scored seriously. If you listed any sort of recurring phrase or statement, you got 1 point. I also gave ECG a pass for his answer of SmackDown GM since Teddy's whole stint was a trope onto itself (plus I felt bad at him getting every question wrong...kudos to him for giving it the college try though).

Damn, can't believe those questions tripped me up. Even then if I listed Eric Young and ODB and Rowdy Piper and Ric Flair I still wouldn't of overthrew SimpleFan or even cracked the bottom five.

I thought I did worse than I did, because I knew I bollocksed up the NWA tag title question.

Should only have 1 point for teddy since not paying for tolls is something he is know for (along with selling viagra)

Did the Road Warriors not win both the WCW & WWF/E tag team titles?

Evil Vito
08-12-2018, 12:41 AM
The question for that one was to name a wrestler, not a team.

Welcome to the forums. Always good when a new poster shows up

Why did you mark Steiner Bro's WCW US Tag Team wrong for a specialty tag team championship?

Vastardikai
08-12-2018, 03:21 PM
Because it isn't a separate division, like the women's tag, cruiserweight tag, or six man tag titles. The US Tag Titles are merely a secondary title in the same division.
