10 Least Successful WWE Tag Teams Of The Last 20 Years

8. Prince Albert & The Big Bossman

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hONhzr86L9Q Prince Albert (Matt Bloom) started in WWF's training camp (WWA) in 1998 alongside Giant Silva, Droz, Steve Bradley, Tiger Ali Singh and Test as "The Mongolian". When he finally joined the main WWF roster in April 1999 he debuted wrestling saving Droz (he was his "personal tattooist) and together they beat Too Cool on the Sunday Night Heat before Backlash. After Droz was seriously injured, Albert hooked up with the WWF veteran Big Boss Man to form a not-so-successful tag team. Unfortunately, WWF didn't splurge on the snazzy names for the tag team so we never got any "Pierced Justice" or the more juvenile "CopRing" gear. The Big Boss Man's career spanning back to Jim Crockett Promotions in 1986 and including quite a memorable WWF run from June 1988 to through March 1993. He was one of a thousand wrestlers former WWF stars that ended up hanging out in WCW (1993-1998) before he finally returned to WWF in 1998 as a McMahon family bodyguard (against Stone Cold Steve Austin) and a general corporate stooge. The Albert/Boss Man team formed in November 1999 and they wrestled top teams including the Hardy Boyz, Edge & Christian, The Rock 'n' Sock Connection, D-Lo Brown & the Godfather and even managed to defeat the Handbangers on the 2/29/00 episode of Sunday Night Heat. However, their overall 1-7-2 tag record spoke volumes by March 2000 the team had run it's course. Recon of the Truth Commission was rechristened Bull Buchanan and joined the Big Boss Man for another three-month team racking up an improved 3-5-2 record. Albert would move on to his more memorable team alongside T&A (Test and manager Trish Stratus) Via some convoluted booking, the Big Boss Man/Prince Albert team actually had a shot at winning the WWF World Title on the December 13, 1999 episode of Raw when they took on WWF World Champion Big Show in a handicap match. However, a double chokeslam ended that pipe dream.
