10 Awesome WWE Makeshift Tag Teams That Won Gold
1. The Rock 'n' Sock Connection
There is little doubt Team Hell No would have run away with the top spot on this list had it not been for the undisputed greatest makeshift tag team of all-time, The Rock 'n' Sock Connection.
Tandems thrown together on a whim don't have to be a godsend to the tag team division in order to be successful; they just have to be able gel together and capture the hearts and minds of the audience, much like Mick Foley and The Rock did.
This wasn't even a case where opposites attracted. In fact, the ultra cool Rock couldn't stand Foley with every fibre of his being, yet he somehow tolerated him enough to win the World Tag Team Championship with Mrs. Foley's baby boy on three separate occasions.
Unlike every aforementioned team that had only one tag title reign to their credit, Rock and Foley held the twin titles multiple times. But perhaps their biggest highlight as a unit came during Foley's version of This Is Your Life with Rock, one of the highest rated segments in Raw history.
It is also a testament to their ability to entertain that they continued to make appearances alongside each other years removed from when both men left active competition. They reunited at WrestleMania XX against Evolution and have crossed paths on various occasions in recent years. Becoming tag team champions wasn't their greatest achievement; setting the bar for future makeshift tag teams and leaving their mark on WWE history was.
