I miss this too, but in my opinion, you have to go old school to find the great tag teams. Hart Foundation, British Bulldogs, Power and Glory, Strike Force and Demolition to name but a few. I'm not taking anything away from the Hardys, Dudleys, E&C, 2 Cool etc but the teams of the 1980s and the early 1990s are in a league of their own. When a team like Demolition held the titles, winning it from them actually meant something. And, if you think about it, a lot of people got their push by being members of tag teams first: Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Davey Boy Smith, Tito Santana, Rick Matel etc. Occasionally two singles stars shoved together in a tag team was special and would draw: Mega Powers (Hogan/Savage), Ultimate Maniacs (Warrior/Savage), Mega Maniacs (Hogan/Beefcake) but it's happening so often these days that the tag team division, and therefore the titles, is slowly fading away.
