HulkaMatt posted:2nd: should we do this again? I'd love to see this again, the top 4 teams last time were pretty great but man it would be great to see F(R)IGHT ISLAND's take on it nowadays that we have more access and wider spread interest in non-WWE or even American-specific promotions. Is there a link to the old thread? Forgive me if I missed it, but I'm kinda interested in going back to see how bad 2010 Jerusalem's opinions on tag teams were.

Given the time I'm not shocked that poll favored US teams and WWE teams but still shocked the Brain Busters made the top 4. Even just limiting to NWA-WCW/WWF(E) teams from the 80's it's a stretch to call them a top 4 team especially when they're WWF tag run was underwhelming even by WWF tag title run standards

I will vote for APA since they're about always pounding rear end while the Bucks are against people always pounding rear end.SatoshiMiwa posted:Given the time I'm not shocked that poll favored US teams and WWE teams but still shocked the Brain Busters made the top 4.

The Bucks might make my top 25, maybe top 50. I'd have to put some thought into it but they're far from my favourite

weekly font posted:but not before the first psp tournament Hulkamatt said it was just over 10 years since the last tournament and Benoit did his murders 13 and half years ago so I think he had? Personally I am quite comfortable admitting I still rate Benoit the wrestler very highly despite Benoit the human doing horrid poo poo, and still I can't think much of him as a tag wrestler. forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Nov 9, 2020 |

They're two of 3 people in AEW who can pull out 5* matches. Kenny being the 3rd. As amazing as I find AEW's roster I'm having trouble seeing any other combos that would result in 5 snowflakes.

Counter-argument: Angle/Benoit, also Jericho/Benoit briefly. He wasn’t a naturally great tag wrestler but he was a superb partner when you put him with a charismatic talent.

i personally prefer the EGM method of four people surrounding a match rating it on a scale from 0-10 using a 1.5 system and awarding silver/gold/platinum honors to matches that average an 8/9/10 rating respectively, along with the best average rated match being the Match Of The Month. the_rob gets to be sushi-X

I see a lot of peoples devices are auto correcting Best Friends to Young Bucks... which is totally understandable. Just wanted to make sure that was put out into the open.

Honestly, Best Friends or Taichi/Sabre are way more likely to win. Lucha Bros and New Day too. Plus someone like the RnR Express or the Harts could still pull it out.

AEW's had four matches ranked 5 stars or higher: Omega/Page vs. Bucks (6) Bucks vs. Lucha Bros ladder match (5 1/4) Best Friends vs. PnP parking lot brawl (5) Cody vs. Dustin (5) Clearly Dave is biased towards tag matches and/or wacky gimmicks

I don't see Land of the Giants (Blade Butch Masters and Skywalker Nitron) on there so yes, do a new one. And do it right this time.

I would appreciate recommendations for teams that aren't incredibly obvious and also teams from the last several years as my watching hasn't exactly been consistent. I also still know next to nothing outside of US/JP wrestling so I won't know any actual lucha teams.

Recommending the joshi Best Friends (Arisa Nakajima & Tsukasa Fujimoto) as long as they're put up against Chuck and Trent to make up for the fact they've never had a match for the rights to be best friends. (also because they've just reunited and they're really good) on the non-NJPW puro side from the last few years, the big teams to include would probably be Violent Giants (Suwama & Shuji Ishikawa) AXIZ (Katsuhiko Nakajima & Go Shiozaki) Strong BJ (Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi) Magical Sugar Rabbits (Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki) Eruption (Yukio Sakaguchi, Kazusada Higuchi & Saki Akai) at least imho

If the first tournament was run in 2007, then FIST at that time (Icarus/Gran Akuma) was far inferior to it's best lineup (Gargano/Chuckie T), this should be corrected on a rematch Seconding the teams GWB said and also: Momo No Seishun (Daisuke Harada and Atsushi Kotoge) Meiyu Tag (Hirooki Goto/Katsuyori Shibata) Swords of Essex (Paul Robinson/Will Ospreay) Future Shock (Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly)
