Lawler and Dundee were the top two guys in Memphis for a long time. But I went with the Heavenly Bodies, because they are the second best tag team Cornette managed, and considering who the best are, that is quite the consolation (the Grapplers are third.)
Usos are one of the top teams of all time, Los Guerreros were also damned good. I had to acknowledge the Usos, though.
I went with the Eliminators here. Because they were kind of the ECW Equivalent of FTR, in that they were one of the best tag teams in the world at that time. And their finish (Total Elimination, a variant of the Double Goozle) is just behind the Doomsday Device on the list of coolest tag team finishes of all time. I have a fondness for the Acolytes, just because of what they did to Public Enemy, and Ron Simmons is a straight up bad ass.
Had to go with Harlem Heat. Nothing against Beer Money, Inc. But Harlem Heat were legendary. They turned Global on its head during their run and were amazing in WCW.
In a shoot, the Steiners vs the Brisco Brothers would be a LOT closer than the poll would suggest. Jack was a beast in his prime, and Gerry was no slouch, either. I went with the Steiners because of recency bias and because they ruled everywhere.
Had to go with the Brain Busters here. But they had a rough draw. The Bulldogs are beasts, but I could see Arn and Tully breaking them down with dirty tricks and double team moves.
I have heard a lot of how great Patterson and Stevens were from Cornette podcasts. But recency bias again reared its head so I went with Mark and Jay.
I had a feeling the Young Bucks were gonna run away with it, so I went with the Blue Bloods, because fuck the Young Bucks. That and honestly, the Bucks wouldn't know how to work against them, because they don't know how to work. Also, Regal and Taylor vs. Londrick vs. The Hardy Boys vs. MNM in a Ladder match.
