Legion of Doom
Undoubtedly one of the most dominant and fearsome tag teams in WWE history, Legion of Doom, comprising of Road Warrior Hawk and Road Warrior Animal, bulldozed their way to victory in the late '80s and early '90s. With a penchant for face paint and spiked shoulder pads, they battled against the likes of The Nasty Boys and Demolition, leaving an indelible mark on the sport. Not only were they known for their brute force, but their unmatched teamwork and signature move, the "Doomsday Device," dubbed them two-time WWF Tag Team Champions.
The death-defying duo of Matt and Jeff Hardy, better known as The Hardy Boyz, have revolutionized tag team wrestling with their high-flying, risk-taking style. Known for their iconic feuds with Edge and Christian, The Dudley Boyz, and countless others, the brothers set the bar for extreme and innovative matches, such as Tables, Ladders, and Chairs. With their signature "Twist of Fate" and "Swanton Bomb," The Hardy Boyz have captured the hearts of fans and amassed multiple tag team championships throughout their storied careers.
