12 Duos That Helped Changed Tag Team Wrestling Forver

2. The British Bulldogs

Though not as decorated as many other teams on this list, the Bulldogs were one of the most exciting and influential teams in wrestling history. They were an insanely innovative team who changed how tag team wrestling was presented, with their creative and faced-paced offense, and their interesting chemistry with Davey Boy being the stronger man and Dynamite being the more agile. This dynamic, coupled with the incredible training that both men received in Stu Hart€™s dungeon, allowed them to put on a series of outstanding matches that elevated the entire tag team division in WWE. Furthermore, not only were both Davey and Dynamite highly-skilled wrestlers, they were also incredibly popular. Davey Boy especially managed to adapt perfectly to WWE€™s emphasis on gimmicks, and his €˜British€™ theme, which also included his €˜Rule Britannia€™ theme and an actual Bulldog named €˜Matilda€™ made him, and by extension the Bulldogs as a team, one of the most popular acts in all of WWE, and a major draw for the company during overseas tours. To this day, the Bulldogs are celebrated as one of the most memorable and influential tag teams in WWE history. They were one of the first teams to make the difference in their physiques and styles work to their advantage, and they put on some fantastic matches in their prime. If you€™ve ever wondered why WWE had a penchant for making some teams composed of one big wrestler and one smaller, it may be because they wanted to recreate the Bulldogs€™ success and popularity as a tag team.
