10 WWE Tag-Teams That Shouldn't Have Worked (But Did)

10. Jeri-Show

The Big Show wasn't at any point supposed to be Chris Jericho's regular tag-team partner in the Summer of 2009. Originally, it was Jericho's Canadian buddy Edge who filled that slot, but when the 'Rated-R Superstar' went down with a serious injury injury, Show was called upon to step into the breach. Immediately, fans were disappointed.

Without giving the new team a chance, the live crowd at Night Of Champions seemed deflated when Y2J announced that Big Show was his new backup. Much of this had to do with the promise that Edge and Jericho seemed to have as a unit, but they'd never get the chance to work for an extended period as partners.

Surprisingly, Show and Jericho (or Jeri-Show as they were dubbed) actually turned out to be one of the better teams in 2009. At TLC in December, the pair constructed a brilliant 'Tables, Ladders and Chairs' bout with D-Generation X, one of the best of the entire show.

Jeri-Show wouldn't last too long, thus ensuring the idea couldn't outstay its welcome, but it worked a charm. Big Show was a surprisingly effective replacement for Edge despite the initial scepticism.
