Team Hell No isn't the only team to have formed at an instalment of Night of Champions.

Similar to Ted DiBiase one year prior, Chris Jericho searched for a partner heading into his Night of Champions 2009 match with The Legacy. His original ally, Edge, was forced to relinquish his half of the Unified Tag Team Championship due to injury, leaving Y2J in need of a new teammate.

From Christian to the returning Chris Masters, rumours ran rampant as to who he'd ultimately choose as his partner, and shockingly enough, it was revealed to be Big Show. The two didn't have any prior history with each other, so it came as a random move. 

But little did the WWE Universe know that it would lead to one of the best teams the division had seen in several years.

On that night, Jericho and Show emerged victorious over The Legacy with ease and embarked on a dominant reign as champs. Collectively known as Jeri-Show, they took out everyone who stepped foot in their path of destruction including Cryme Tyme, MVP and Mark Henry, and Batista and Rey Mysterio.

Sadly, they disbanded shortly after their reign came to an end, but a future reunion is not entirely off the table.
