Simply put....Whos the greatest legit brother tag team in history. Now before you start harping at the list lemme explain why some names are missing.....
Von Erich- By far one of the greatest sets of brothers in wrestling history but outside of Kevin and David teaming, they were more seen as 6man and singles wrestlers. As good as Kevin and David were they never really did anything together outside of Texas which is why they were left off the list.
Now Im sure you see that and ask "What about Harts, Windhams and Rougeau?" Simple....Harts and Rougeau both tagged at a world wide grand level. No they might not have won major titles they were still on a "grander stage". As for the Windhams, they fell in by default. I included ALL WWF/NWA/WCW World Tag Champs. The Windhams held the WCW Tag Titles.
Everyone else not on the list I didnt find qualified. Either by not teaming often or being more of a mid card to lower mid card (Harris Bros, Mulkeys)
Also, no teams in the past 5 years were chosen.....for an obvious reason.
Here are the resumes....
Steiner Bros
-7 Time WCW Tag Champs
-1 Time NWA US Tag Champs
-1 Time IWGP Tag Champs
-2 Time WWF Tag Champs
Harlem Heat
-10 WCW Tag Champs
Funks
-3 Time NWA International Tag Champs (AJPW)
-6 Time Territorial Tag Champs
-WWE Hall of Famers
Briscos
-3 Time NWA Tag Team Champs
-WWE Hall of Famers
Windhams
-1 time WCW Tag Champs
Wild Samoans
-3 Time WWF Tag Champs
-WWE Hall of Fame
Harts & Rougeaus
-No combined title reigns

Why weren't the Hardys included?
Anyway, I'd say Harlem Heat, closely followed by The Steiners.

I went with the Steiners. First off, Bret and Owen would be my favorite. But they never got gold together, and quite honestly didnt team that much. So they arent the Best.
The Steiners are well known in nearly every and all companies that have existed.
I loved their WWF Run, with feuds against Money Inc., The Quebecers, The beverly Brothers, and so on.
There moves were great and their team finishing move was awesom as well.
Very talented, Very decorated, and well known. I think the Steiners are by far the best real brother tag team.

The Steiners are among the greatest tag teams of all-time... PERIOD.
That being said, they are most definitely the greatest brother team in wrestling history.

Steiners. They accomplished so much. Great wrestlers, obviously before the Big Poppa Pump days.

Steiners, funks, and Briscos are my top 3.
The biggest reason I'd put Steiners at the top is nostalgia. They were one of my favorite teams as a kids, and among my favorite wrestlers in general.

I figured after letting this run for a few days I would finally chime in.....
Harlem Heat have always been one of my favorite tag teams. I can remember coming home from school and turning the TV on ESPN (Channel 14 at the time) at 4pm and watching GWF (Global Wrestling Federation). That is where i first discovered Booker and Stevie. I wont lie and say I was a huge fan of them but once they made it to WCW in the black flame outfits, I was sold. I really loved this tag team and for many years I always considered them my favorite......
HOWEVER......
There is no denying what the Steiners have done. The ONLY tag team Ill take an argument that is as good as or better then the Steiners is the Road Warriors. Even then, Im taking the Steiners. Rick and Scott held every major Tag title during their career, usually more then once. Not only do I find the Steiners to be the best brother tag team of all time but the best overall tag team of all time.

quite honestly your right G2.Im a HUGE mark for hawk and Animal but I would be hard pressed to argue against your point.

I try my best to never vote against Barry Windham, but lets be honest here... Kendall always sucked.
But I have to agree with the majority here and go with the Steiners. The were amazing together. Them and LOD are neck & neck for the best ever.
