GURU'S GREATEST TAG TEAMS OF ALL tIME





In Pro Wrestling today, there are few tag teams headline the show. In the WWE, the tag team division as a whole is put on the shelf, while most wrestlers focus on solo careers. During the 1970s and 1980s, fans had some of the best tag teams in the history of the business. Most teams, specialized in tag team wrestling, or they used their success in the tag team division to launch mega-star solo runs, such as Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. This list encompasses the 1970s to current period in wrestling. I am sure, 'The Revival' currently in WWE will find themselves on this list in a few years. I have went back and archived everyone on this list watching matches on youtube or the WWE Network. Those in the Top 5, could in their era, be the main event in their territory on a card. As homage to The Jim Cornette, I find it interesting that wrestling had the best tag teams during the territory days. #1, the RocknRoll Express, and #2 The Midnight Express (both versions under Jim Cornette) are the standard of tag-team wrestling. They simply were the best in their era by outdrawing any Tag-Team of the era headlining many venues. Tag teams in this era can be considered textbook material to study of today's tag-teams and solo wrestlers because of the storytelling in the ring. Simply, both heel and face teams made each other better.


An argument could be made, that the monopoly of the WWE on the wrestling business, in effect killed Tag Team wrestling for a period of time. I believe a resurgence of tag team wrestling is on the horizon for the future of pro wrestling. Respond to me on twitter, @realguruwrestle.

There were many ups and downs in the world of pro wrestling this year. The Highlights include the WWE tag team , The New Day, surpassing Demolition as the longest reining WWE tag team champions in WWE history. There are some not so memorable moments were the disappointments Wrestlemania 32. We have witness though much more upside, than negativity in the world of pro wrestling. Indy wrestling seems to be surging as people try to get their wrestling fix outside of the WWE. I could spend an entire article ranting on the misdirection of WWE creative or the near fire sell and collapse of TNA. The Guru is going to focus on the positive. Here are my Top Ten Best in pro wrestling in 2016.





Guru's top ten best moments in 2016



  1. AJ Styles, WWE debut at the 2016 Royal Rumble & wins the WWE Championship - AJ Styles is the best wrestler on the planet, and the best superstar in the WWE.
  2. Charlotte Flair v. Sasha Banks Feud - This feud has revolutionized not only wrestling, but sports for women proving they can compete equally and to some extent better than some men.
  3. Chris Jericho & Kenny Omega - Jericho 2016 had a renaissance in his career being the highlight of Monday Night Raw. Omega's heel run has put NJPW on the global stage making "The Cleaner' one of sport entertainments top attractions.
  4. Goldberg v. Brock Lesnar: At WWE Survivor Series - 1:27secs, Vince McMahon proves once again that he can shock the wrestling world.
  5. Broken Matt Hardy - Matt Hardy has completely redefined his career, and has made his brand as big as any WWE superstar. The Hardy Brand is the single reason to tune into PopTv on Thursday nights.
  6. New Day surpasses Demolition's record - Just nice guys, we should celebrate the achievement on the grind of maintaining popularity in the wrestling world this long.
  7. Cody Rhodes leaves the WWE/ WCPW - Cody is bringing attention to the fact 'wrestling exists' outside the WWE. Though a small independent UK wrestling promotion, WCPW shines the light of the entire independent wrestling scene by showcasing its brightest stars.
  8. Raw/Smackdown Brand Split- Though serious creative questions about the Raw brand have arisen, Smackdown has given otherwise neglected stars such as 'The Miz' and Dolph Ziggler a place to shine. Their 'No Mercy' match has to be one of the best matches in 2016.
  9. John Cena v. AJ Styles: Summerslam 2016 - This match is my pick of match of the year. John Cena let AJ Styles go over, was the major step to his wrestling reign in 2016.
  10. WWE NxT - Triple H has taken NxT globally. Though the brand is still a development place for superstars to begin with the WWE, NxT has some of the best wrestling within the company. Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura, Asuka, and Bobby Roode are all main roster talent that has taken NxT to the next level. As we journey into 2017, the future is bright for next generation stars.
