10 Most Over Tag Teams In WWE History
4. New Age Outlaws
For the short time, the Outlaws benefitted from being the only game in town. After the Legion of Doom left, Road Dogg and Billy Gunn were the only constant pairing in WWE, competing against a handful of thrown-together teams like Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie or Owen Hart & Jeff Jarrett. They double-handedly kept the tag division afloat during its waining years until the high-flyers could come and pull the boat to shore a little while later.
Fans got behind the Outlaws for the same reason they got behind the rest of D-Generation X: They were cool as s**t and rebelled against "the system" at every opportunity. When their music kicked in and Road Dogg queried "Oh you didn't know?", fans knew they were in for a treat and responded with deafening roars.
Even as heels, they got huge pops from the crowd, and it only got louder once they became involved with DX shenanigans that found them at WCW's front door, dressed in army fatigues behind the wheel of a tank.
