10 WWE Tag Teams That Broke Up At The Best Time

10. The Hart Foundation

It's never ideal to lose Tag Team Championships, but Bret Hart's singles career had had so many false starts by 1991 that The Hart Foundation's gentle separation felt like a case of now or never for the 'Excellence Of Execution'.

Hart had worked a singles programme with Bad News Brown in 1988 and been profiled yet again in 1989 bangers with Randy Savage, but on both occasions returned to the doubles ranks after the fact. A WrestleMania VII loss to the Nasty Boys in 1991 at long last bucked the trend. The Harts were cheated out of the belts, but the ultra-talented half of the team was more than ready to got it alone.

Though the contrasts between their trajectories was very apparent, Jim Neidhart was far out in the cold as 'The Hitman' started sunbathing in superstardom. 'The Anvil' was given updated look for his odd television matches, and even briefly transitioned into an announcers role on Wrestling Challenge. And any animosity that might have lay beneath the surface was effectively mined three years later.
