The greatest wrestling tag teams of all-time

one of the more modern day tag-teams, who have earned legendary status by holding every major world tag team championship in America, as well as several championships in Japan. They are widely renown for this, and are granted as one of today's greatest tag-teams, and will most likely go down in the history books as one of the greatest tag teams of the modern era, if not, of all time. The team originated in the old Extreme Championship Wrestling as a stable with several members, but the team of Brother Ray and Brother Devon wee the best known of the stable, and went on to capture the tag-team championships in ECW a record Eight times. They eventually went on to the WWF/E, capturing the titles there again, Eight times, as well as an unofficial WCW' World Tag Team Championship run. To put a long story short, Team 3D are one of the most decorated tag teams of the modern era, and without a doubt when the time comes for them to retire, they will be remembered as one of the best of all time. Recently they claimed the NWA, and later, the TNA World Tag Team Championships, adding two more trophies to their record books. They are currently in a feud with the legendary Steiner Brothers.

Number Ten: The Outsiders Now this was a tough one to choose for my last one, but looking back I realize most of my teams are from the past, so I felt it's time yet again to introduce a more modern day tag-team, and who better than the comedic Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, The Outsiders? The Outsiders broke into the WCW in 1996, forming the controversial New World Order along with Hollywood Hulk Hogan. The Outsiders, at the time, were a different kind of tag team.

Most tag-teams were all action, and given minimal microphone time, yet, when The Outsiders got on the scene, both Hall and Nash are renown as two of the most charismatic Wrestlers of all time, bringing both comedy and seriousness, changing from one to the other in a matter of seconds, able to motivate the crowd to cheer or boo at ease with classic, yet basic lines such as Scott Hall's famous Hey Yo.' Much like other teams, Hall was the more agile, technical based wrestler, bringing mat based and a classic style mixing it with in-ring comedy, whereas Nash was the more serious, big powerhouse, although Nash himself was also common for bringing comedy into his matches.

The Outsiders signaled a new generation of Tag-Teams, which also lead to the then WCW rival, the WWF, bringing in D-Generation X, a Tag-Team and stable similar in style
