10 B-Team WWE Tag Team Champions

10. Animal & Heidenreich

Returning for a legacy-denting WWE run in 2005, Road Warrior Animal challenged Tag Team Champions MNM to a clash at the upcoming Great American Bash pay-per-view. He didn't have a partner, but in stepped the skill-deficient Heidenreich, with the duo scoring the victory in what was designed as a touching tribute to Hawk, who'd passed away close to two years prior.

Though WWE's booking intentions were pure, the reign quickly unravelled. Heidenreich took on the Legion Of Doom's signature look, clarting himself with facepaint and donning spiked shoulder pads, but felt more like a Butlins parody act than a genuine tribute. It reeked of the worst kind of nostalgia, greatly diminishing the ageing Animal, the L.O.D. brand, and the titles, which the duo somehow kept hold of for three full months.

The new L.O.D. eventually lost the gold back to MNM that October, and continued as a team until January 2006, when Heidenreich was let go from the company. Though their run didn't exactly come during a boom period for tag teams in WWE, it was as needless as it was destructive.
