Hardy Boys- I've always been a fan of Matt over Jeff. Not even exactly sure why. I like them both alot but Matt has a wierd appeal to me. His mic skills are years ahead of his brother and he doesn't have to resort to spot monkey sideshow crap to have a good match.

Cade and Murdoch- I like that Cade is just this huge Bradshaw-esque powerhouse and seems unstoppable at times but Murdoch definitely makes the team for me. His roughneck style along with his gross facial expressions just pull it all together

Edge and Christian- One of the only teams I have a genuinely hard time choosing the one I liked best. They worked so cohesively together and then did awesome when it came to go singles time. Can both work the mic, both are known for putting on solid matches, both are known for taking insane bumps when need be, and both are just purely entertaining to watch. Not sure.



...gotta go to work. do others later

Hardy Boys - Matt Hardy (but only just...I personally prefer Jeff Hardy though)
Cade and Murdoch - Lance Cade
Londrick - Pretty much even, although I'd go with London if I had to choose
Hardy/MVP - Pretty damn close, although imo Hardy wins by a small margin
Edge and Christian - Both are quite solid

Matt Hardy had the better gimmick when he was V1 and he's more entertaining on the mic, Jeff is just all high spots which is the same as he's always been. Plus he always looks burnt out and injured.

Cade and Murdoch are both faggots for getting Cryme Tyme fired. :mad:

Londrick really really close but London, just cause he does crazier moves.

Hardy/MVP probably MVP, just cause his gimmick cracks me up, they are both entertaining as fuck though.

Edge and Christian personally I was always partial to Christian, he was funnier and was the better of the two when Edge went face and Christian went heel, IMO

Owen Hart and Davey Boy i'd say Owen Hart, I love both but Owen is just awesome.

The Hart Foundation no question here, Bret Hart was like my original favorite wrestler before Chris Jericho.

Hardy Boys=Matt. Matt Hardy did most of the work for none of the glory and made his brother look good in the process. There's a reason (Beyond the weed) that Jeff keeps falling on his face (no pun intended)

Cade and Murdoch=Murdoch, mostly because I like the oldschool heel feel to him. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't care.

Londrick=London by a nut hair. Even then, only because he's never wrestled (To my knowledge) as "Spanky."

Hardy/MVP=Hardy, just because MVP's as horribly overrated as most smark crushes.

Edge and Christian=Christian, no contest. Christian got main event reactions without a main event push. Edge got them only after a long period of lackluster response. Protip: If you need to bang your friend's girl to get heat, you suck as a heel.


Owen Hart and Davey Boy= Owen, though I still maintain Owen's fanbase overrates him.

The Hart Foundation=Yeah, duh.

The Road Warriors=No opinion.
The Midnight Express=No opinion.
Undertaker & Kane=Kane. I've always preferred Kane to Taker, and I don't know why. Probably because I was already getting bored with the Undertaker by the timeKane came on the scene.
New Age Outlaws (in their prime)=Billy Gunn. RD didn't have much going for him.
LAX=Fuck them.
Motor City Machine Guns=Fuck them, but slightly less.

3 Live Kru
Ron Killings: Mainly by process of elemination, BG is annyoing, Konan was past his prime, at least Killings can do moves.

AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels
Christopher Daniels: Because Christopher Daniels is my favorite wrestler wrestling today.

The Acolytes
Bradshaw: Because when they were together Farooq was past his prime.

The Allied Powers
British Bulldog: Because the other option is Lex Luger.

America's Most Wanted
James Storm: Because at least he has a gimmick where as Chris Harris is just bland.

The Blade Runners
Sting: Because Sting is one of my favorites of all time.

The Blu Bloods
William Regal: Because Squire Dave is boring as hell and Earl Robert wasn't good anymore at that time.

bWo
Stevie Richards: The Blue Meanie blows and I don't know Nova well enough.

Barry Windham & Dustin Rhodes
Dustin Rhodes: Because I've alwasy liked The Natural, and back in the mark days I hated the Horsemen and couldn't even like a former one.

The Body Donnas

Hardy Boys = Jeff. Not a whiny penis.
Cade and Murdoch = Murdoch. Cade just has NOTHING.
Londrick = Paul London, the guy has a shady look that could easily be rebooked into a much better gimmick.
Hardy/MVP = Power Ranger.
Edge and Christian = Edge, only because he is on my TV more often.
Owen Hart and Davey Boy = The dead one.
The Hart Foundation = The dead one.

The Hardys
Definitely Matt. I've always liked him better. Probably because he doesn't need the high spots like Jeff does. Matt also planned out most of their matches, and has turned into a better ring general. He's also far more charismatic. I remember when people thought the guy had no personality, and then he busted out the "Mattitude" character. Fuck, that kicked so much ass. Now people have forgotten about it, but he should really bring it back for his feud with MVP. It would really fit if they were both somewhat cocky pricks competing against each other.

Winner: Matt Hardy

The Redneck Wrecking Crew
I've always liked Lance Cade better. I just feel he is the more likeable of the two. He's got some good size to him, can fly, and has got more than passable mic skills. Trevor Murdoch is a little more intense with his gimmick, and certainly isn't a bad worker, but I just like Cade better. It might have more to do with taste than their abilities. Both guys are good.

Winner: Lance Cade

The Hooliganz
Believe it or not, I've had a hard time chasing down some of Brian Kendrick's earlier stuff. Recently I've developed a larger fondness for him than Paul London. I don't know what it's based on, but I just have a lot of sympathy for him. Perhaps it's because he's overlooked more than London. I think I'd have to give the nod to Paul, though. Brian Kendrick has got the skills to be less than a step behind, though. Much like Cade & Murdoch, both guys are good to the point where it doesn't really matter.

Winner: Paul London

MattV(1.0)P
This is a tricky one. Again, both guys are so good. MVP is hot right now with the wave of love he has gotten. Matt is really growing into quite the ring general, though. My heart says Matt Hardy, as he was once one of my favourite wrestlers (and still is), but another part of me (probably my brain) says to give the nod to MVP. Like the previous two, this one is close enough to go either way.

Winner: MVP

Edge & Christian
Once upon a time it was Edge, but as my smarkiness has grown, so has my love for Christian. How the WWE fucked up so badly with him during his massive pop era is a mystery I will never understand. I'm glad both guys have become World Champions, though. I hope that one day I will get to see a feud between the two for the WWE Championship. There isn't much chance of that, though.

Winner: Christian

The Brothers of Destruction
Kane, and I didn't even need to think about it. Kane has always been more likable to me. He's managed to hold my interest more, and I remember marking out for him so hard during the 2001 Royal Rumble. Kane was originally my favourite wrestler, and the soft spot for him remains. The Undertaker may have a few more great matches to his name, but his career in the WWE is also much longer. Kane has always been the more entertaining performer.

Winner: Kane

New Age Outlaws
Little known fact: I used to be a huge mark for Billy Gunn. The guy was never horrible. He also interested me much more than the Road Dogg, who bored me to tears. I definitely give the nod here to The One.

Winner: Billy Gunn

La Resistance
Rob Conway, Rene Dupree and Sylvain Grenier, in that order. There were three incarnations of the team, but Conway and Dupree were always the ones with more potential, with Grenier not being horrible, but definitely placing last.

Winner: Rob Conway

The Motor City Machine Guns
Alex Shelley reminds me of Chris Jericho in a lot of ways. He just has a lot of personality, a lot of wrestling skill, and he can fly. Chris Sabin is not as bland as some people make him out to be, but I'd have to put him behind Alex Shelley in every category.

Winner: Alex Shelley

MNM
Joey Mercury will probably end up signed to TNA, which is good for him, but I never wanted to see him leave the WWE. He brought it upon himself, true, but Mercury was more talented in the ring than Johnny Nitro, and was actually better on the mic and had more personality. He's the Matt Hardy to Nitro's Jeff Hardy, and while Nitro has become much better on the mic (to the point where his promos make me legitimately laugh), and his matches have become highly enjoyable, I guarantee Mercury would have been capable of that, as well. It's truly a shame he's gone.

Winner: Joey Mercury
