This has most likely been done, but I thought it would be fun to see who everyone lists. When I think of tag team wrestling, these are the teams I have always been a huge fan of.
1. Edge & Christian. These guys were fantastic together. I remember me and my cousins being huge E&C fans, we still all three say "That reeks of awesomeness" about things to this day.
2. The Outsiders. Even as a young fan, I loved these guys. They were heels, but I didn't care, I just couldn't get enough of them in WCW.
3. The Hardy Boyz. Another team me and my cousins loved. The things Jeff Hardy would do in matches blew our minds everytime he did them.
4. The Dudley Boyz. The first time I saw them was in ECW. A friend let me borrow one of his ECW dvd's in like 98 or 99 and they do a promo on the event that was just sick. They were fantastic heels and this was my first time seeing some really dirty language in pro wrestling. Plus they have one of the greatest tag team moves ever.
5. New Age Outlaws. Just a fantastic duo. Both guys played their roles perfectly and I love seeing them back on TV this year.
I obviously grew up in the mid to late 90's, which is why I didn't list some of the all time greats like The Steiners, LOD, & Hart Foundation. I didn't really see them until they were really at the end of their runs or already split up. If I had started watching in the early 90's, my list would be totally different haha.

If you can't guess, I grew up watching the Attitude Era.
1) Edge and Christian - These guys were always my favorite growing up because I thought they were hilarious, and I still love going back and watching their stuff today. 2) Brother of Destruction - Kane and Undertaker are two of my favorite superstars of all time, I didn't put them as number one because they were never a team quite like E&C/whoever were. 3) The Dudley Boys - I won't lie, I pretty much liked them as a kid just because I loved seeing someone get put through a table. (And still do to this day) 4) The New Age Outlaws - Do I really need a reason? Few teams could ever match their charisma. 5) The Rock 'N' Sock Connection - Mick Foley is in my top five of all time, and of course I loved the Rock back in 1999 so they've always held a special place in my heart in regard to tag teams.
HM: The Usos and the Shield, I didn't put either of them on here because they're still active today.

Hart Foundation New Age Outlaws British Bulldogs Steiner Brothers New Foundation
I know I'm probably alone on the New Foundation, but Anvil and Owen jelled so well as a team, better than Bret and Jim did even IMO. They just never got a lengthy enough run to show what they could really do together.
HM to Smokin Gunns, they were an amazing team together, unfortunately they didn't have much to work with during their run.

1. Tully Blanchard and Arn Anderson. What a great combo. I wish they would have stuck around the WWF longer so they could have been with Flair. Simply a great tag team.
2. Chris Adams and Gino Hernandez. The second incarnation of "The Dynamic Duo". What heat these two had. The Von Erich feud was so memorable and the Cotton Bowl "Hair cut" match is one of my all time favorites. Rumor has it that Adams/Hernandez were going to jump to the WWF when their time was done in WCCW. Not sure how true that is but it would have been interesting. Gino could have been a bigger heel in the business than Ric Flair.
3. The British Bulldogs. I always like the Bulldogs. Dynamite Kid was one the greatest wrestlers ever.
4. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers. I loved them as a heel tag-team. I have their theme song on my Ipod and play it quite often!
5. The Sheepherders. "Crazy" Luke and Butch. Without a doubt the most brutal tag-team ever. Their feud with "The Fantastics" was legendary. If you find it, look for the barbed wire cage match they had. I asked Jim Ross about it once and he said it was one of the most brutal things he ever saw and to this day it still holds a high spot in brutality. I didn't even mind The Bushwackers. What a 180 from what they were. But I like what Luke Williams said about it. They made more money licking each others head than they ever did bleeding all over the world.

MNM were super talented, they're a bit like the Smokin' Gunns in the sense that they were the only good tag team at the time, so they didn't really have anyone to feud with.

The Mexicools were around at the same time man but Vince wouldn't pull the trigger. Those 4 could've tore the house down. The Mexicools were popular too.......as well as MNM being really over as heels. Vince missed a trick here....MNM could've been WAY bigger.
