It's been 8 hours since Adrien picked and it became Sean's turn, making it Lasie's turn.

 Look at this picture. Point 1: Ultimo was freakin' awesome. Point 2: This match would be freakin' awesome. Point 3: ALL THESE TITLES MUST BE STOLEN! MWAHAHAHAHA! Point 4: That would be freakin' awesome. |

You know who else was a decent gaijin Junior Heavy heel in NJ? Eddie Guerrero as Black Tiger. But Eddie's pretty good as a face, too. Eddie vs. Devitt.

So, I've got Okada. A student of Ultimo Dragon. Recognised as one of the top talents in his company. Whoever could I pair him with...?
Other than CIMA. Proclaimed by some as the Dragon's greatest student, although others would argue Okada to be more successful, especially with his NJPW tenure.
Despite both being students at Toryumon, I don't think these two have ever fought in a ring, with Okada's training debut coming after the split with Dragon Gate.
Kazuchika Okada vs. CIMA. Look upon it, and weep.

I'm going to go ahead and announce the round 1 winner, and that person is...Sean. Sean won the first reward and what he can do with his reward was announced earlier. The Round 2 winner will receive the following:
For one round only, they may leap to the front of the round.
Your third round is our first vs./tag round! So here's your category.
You may select any former WWE/World Tag Team Champions between 2000-Current. This World Tag Team Title means the former belts before WWE unified them and ONLY those World Tag Team Titles. You must explain why they were the best tag team in the world during their reign.

I will be taking Shawwwwwwwwwwwwn Micheals to face off against Ibushi. Prepare to see hard hitting moves come from these two 'tiny men', and we already know they will be flying around the ring and putting their bodies on the line. Frankly, there isn't anyone who can DRAW or PUT ON for a main even like good ole HBK. No matter his opponent.
There is also one tag team that you can look at on the list and say... WOW FUCK YOU AND YOUR POWERHOUSE OF A TAG TEAM. FUCK YOU IN THE MASSIVE FACE FOR BEING SO GODDAMN DOMINATE. 7 time reigning Tag Team Champs, match of the year in 2000 and 2001. And if Edge didn't break his neck and force to retire.... The would have more than fucking 7 of those things.
I'm king, I'm lampington, hear my light bulb sizzle. Most importantly.... IM THE FIRST!

This was difficult, but after much deliberation, Pete wins Round 2. To cash in your prize, you must give me an advance notice. I will be posting the new round after the half way point of each round from now on to give Pete an opportunity to decide when he'd like to cash in.

Yeah, that's right. The APA. Sold as as tag team so bad-ass they even got The Undertaker's respect and attention. Whenever someone was getting beat down, or backed into a corner, and you heard the first few chords of that theme tune, you knew business was about to pick up. 3 time champs, it was their final victory as the APA that qualifies them for this pick. I will argue as long as the day is long about how this team, underrated, is one of the greatest in WWF/E history. What have you got to say about that Faarooq?  Damn straight. |

I think you don't understand the question; the BEST tag team? How can this answer not be Bubba Ray and D-Von, The Dudley Boyz?
-8 time WWF/E World Tag Team Champions
-1 additional reign with the "WWE Tag Team Championship"
-8 time ECW World Tag Team Champions
-2 time TNA World Tag Team Champions
-Throw on a WCW reign under the WWE banner and a NWA reign under the TNA banner, they're the only team to hold the WWE, WCW, ECW, NWA, and TNA World Tag Team Titles. Ever. Forever. (FOREVER.....FOREVER........FOREVERRRRR)
-American tag dominance from 1996 on isn't enough? Fine; they're also former IWGP World Tag Team Champions (2 times!), won the AJPW World's Strongest Tag League in 2005, and for kicks, also held the HUSTLE Tag Titles.
-They sandwiched the 2000s as PWI's Tag Team of the Year in 2001 (when they had a PWI match of the year, their second in a row) and 2009, and topped that off with their Tag Team of the Decade award.
Pretty hefty resume that looks down on these other teams already mentioned. Get on their level (and get put through a table!)
...Oh, and they were managed by Stacy Keibler at one point. She's fine as hell.

Who was the very best tag team during this period? In my opinion, a team that defeated the almost unstoppable force of the Big Show and Kane for the titles. A team that dominated storylines and future DVD releases for years to come, with their brash attitude, unbeatable tag team moves and their unholy alliance with both Vince and Shane McMahon. They beat Big Show, they annihilated Kane, beat the hell out of Dusty Rhodes, Sgt. Slaughter, and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. They embarrassed both Triple H and Shawn Michaels. Also, their tag reign was a record at the time, holding for 216 days, the longest since the team of Owen Hart and The British Bulldog held it for 241 days in 1996 and 1997.
By the way... this might have been because there were five of them using Freebird rules.
Loophole, bitch!
P.S. I'm taking Timmy as a mascot
P.S.S. Alcohol may or may not have been involved in this decision...

For someone to ponder if he wants to use his reward, here's our next round.
This round, I'm gonna let you play god...of booking. You must draft someone not currently contracted to WWE and explain why they could show up on Raw or Smackdown IMMEDIATELY and be an asset. NXT stars are excluded, as they are currently contracted.

When you think about the great tag teams already taken, you have to think on a level of "who made these guys their bitches?" And then it came to me. This team, at No Way Out 2001, completely dominated two of the teams already taken (Edge and Christian; Dudley Boyz) and lost the match due to interference. They beat Edge and Christian for the championship in a year they dominated the tag division. They won the WCW Tag Team Champion and won the WWF Tag Team Championship twice within the same year. They were also the first team to ever hold them at the same time. Imagine the crowd reactions every time you saw the double chokeslams in the middle of the ring when THE BROTHERS OF DESTRUCTION stormed. That's right, the legend himself, The Undertaker and the Big Red Machine, Kane!

I'm taking London and Kendrick, one of the greatest WWE Tag Team Champions in the history of the belts. Holding the belts for just under a year, and producing fantastic matches throughout it, including one of the best ladder matches ever.
How they ended up being buried by Triple H for no reason remains one of the most bullshit things done against a great tag team.

For my tag team, I couldn't go past R-Truth and Kofi Kingston. What originally started as a novelty pairing resulted in one of the most entertaining, most exciting teams to run in the WWE division (what that says about the WWE tag team division, mind you ...). Their success and renown was recognised with a dominating 139 day reign as WWE Tag Team Champions - ranking them a prestigious 11th on the list of holders.
