And that's fair enough to say they were a favourite team, I enjoyed the hell out of them too, the bar fight angles they'd do on Raw were awesome, great memories of them beating the shit out of the Posse, and doing the hencemen or hire angle. But I'd say there's a big difference to a team you enjoy and one in an elite group, because once you admit the APA as a team, you can admit about 25 other teams along with them.
For example, the Hollywood Blondes were an unbelieveably entertaining team, were higher on the card than the APA ever were, and outside the team Austin was the biggest draw in the history of the business and Pillman revolutionized wrestling from a character standpoint and even earlier than that, by breaking so many barriers as a smaller guy. But they were only together for six months before they got split up unjustly. If the APA qualifies, then the Blondes do as well, even though as a team their run was too short to put them on an all-time elite list.
