Welcome everyone to the first edition of Better Wrestler: Tag Team! It was decided that rather than go back and forth between singles guys and tag teams it would just be more efficient to have separate votes since for our purposes they are separate contests anyhow. You all know the rules. 3 days per poll, 5 wins to the title. Let's kick things off with a BANG with two HUGE tag teams:

The Road Warriors

Vs.

The Steiner Brothers

The LOD might be the greatest tag team of all time. What they did for the industry with their gimmick was very revolutionary, plus they had a sweet finish.

LOD is one of if not the only tag teams that were as big if not bigger than the guys in the main event. You just don't get that. That's taking nothing away from this era of Steiners before injuries and excessive drug use, and how can you not respect a man who was taken seriously wearing the headgear in the ring? But still, LOD gets the nod, if nothing else for spawning James Laurinitis. Yes, they did it together.

You pretty much nailed it. LOD was bad ass.

What Des said, although I would have used someone else to start with, then again, get them in the HOF right away, and its all good.

Although I really enjoyed the Steiner Brothers/Quebecers feud tbh

LOD
I wish I could say something about the Steiners, but maybe it's my youth or just they really didn't do to much for the biz, but I can't think of anything overly great about them. I guess give them props for the amateur wrestling and teaming up with Taker that one time. Um..yeah. I'm blank.

Gonna have to scrounge up some viable competition for the next rounds.
Destor

Yeah, needs to be better than this anyhow :lol:

Don't you worry. I've got four more teams coming up, each one more credible than the last.

LOD by quite a margin.

Next up for LOD.....THE DICKS!

LOD isn't a tag team, they are the tag team. No one comes close to what they represent.
Destor
10-13-2008, 03:03 PM
I'd vote the Midnight Express over them.

(But no one else on TPWW would)

I'm unfamiliar with their work (Midnight Express).
Destor
10-13-2008, 03:10 PM
They were really great, but I'll save my opinions on them for a later date.

I mean the LOD will never go all the way, but they'll only lose to the best.

I wonder what would happen if I could find evidence that Ric Flair and Braden Walker were a legit tag team...
Destor

The universe would implode

I'd vote the Midnight Express over them.

I would too. But only for having possibly the greatest theme in the history of music
Destor

That is a pretty impressive blow out.

Steiners still have an hour to rally. I think you are forgetting that NYDon has not voted yet.

What about Well Dunn?
thedamndest
10-16-2008, 12:00 AM
It goes without saying that Timothy Well and Stephen Dunn would give LOD a drubbing the likes of which they have never seen.
