Does this big win at Wrestle Kingdom solifidy them as the greatest tag team of all time? FOr a small junior team to accomplish so much is amazing. People only hate them because they are friends with Dave and better than The Midnight Express.

I legit think that FTR are salty as all fuck that despite their constant coattail riding, when it comes to characterisarion, match quality and working a crowd, the Bucks are just better in every way. FTR have the same match with everyone. The Bucks are versatile as fuck. How many times have they managed to turn a crowd around just by the quality of their in ring ability? That's the difference between the Bucks and FTR - FTR need the other team to work well to get the over, the Bucks can get any team over.

I think Dax has an actual mental complex over the Stinger requesting the Bucks carry him in his last match.

Tag team wrestling, on the whole, has been irrelevant for years. WWE, NJPW, AEW, TNA, ROH, NOAH, etc. Name a legitimately great tag title reign from the last 10 years. New Day? Usos? Hardys? GoD?

Maybe Dangerous Tekkers from a few years ago was decent. Otherwise it's just entirely forgettable hot potatoes. The only companies putting any effort into booking tag teams are independents that have nothing else... DPW and BJW come to mind, but nobody is watching. The Astronauts have been the best tag team in the world for the last 3 or 4 years and ain't nobody got time for that.

Trying to claim relevance in the tag world is a joke. Take you crowns of shit and reign over the derelict, irrelevant kingdom if you like. The Killer Bees are more relevant than the Young Bucks.
>>
>>16649413
FTR's first and 2nd tag title reign was fantastic. Same with their IWGP and ROH run.
>The Killer Bees are more relevant than the Young Bucks.

Tag team wrestling only works when main eventers are tagging for story reasons and it doesn't last long enough to wear out its welcome desu.

>>
>>16649443
FTR are a novelty act, they're like a High School play version of Shakespeare.

Nobody wants to be a tag team wrestler anymore, and haven't since the 90's. Generations of wrestlers watched HBK, Bret Hart, Booker T, Steve Austin, Kenta Kobashi, Kensuke Sasaki, Takayama, etc. cast aside their tag partners and achieve greatness as singles wrestlers. That's the dream of every aspiring wrestler. Nobody wants to be in a tag team forever... and it shows. That's why tag wrestling is irrelevant.

Don't believe me? Here's a fun exercise, pick your favorite company and tell me when they last had a Tag Team title match as the main event of a PPV/PLE. Not just a tag, has to he for the titles. Not just a "road to" show or weekly television, has to be PPV/PLE. Not a double or triple main event, none of that nonsense... it had to have closed the show.

For the record, I care little for The Young Bucks, (current day) MCMG, New Day, Usos, etc. I think they're all mediocre tag teams in a mediocre age. My annoyance is purely with their dick riding fans trying to pretend that tag belts in 2025 are of any worth. If you truly value the IWGP tag titles then tell me who held the last 5 reigns.

That wasn't for a title now was it?

Also, it was in 1985... so you're kind of making my point for me. If the last time Tag wrestling was relevant was 1985 then we are clearly in a mediocre era at this point. Tag team wrestling in 2025 is as relevant and popular as The Simpsons in 2025.

Dax has some fucking trauma over the Bucks being more respected than his team, you can just tell. FTR politicking with Punk not to drop the belts to the Bucks at All In only to drop them in a squash match a few weeks later to the thrown toegher tag team of Stacks/Bill was really fucking telling. When Punk left and all their political sway disappeared, the light went from Dax's eyes. The Bucks getting the Sting retirement match probably crushed him.
>>
>>16649413
Kenny and Hangman had a good run because they used the titles to build their own story. Tag teams just can't do that very well and want the division to be in its own little box. At least when people like the Bucks, Kenny, etc, get the belts they use it to advance actual stories instead of just "Hurr I'm the best tag team!" shit like what FTR do. Absolute garbage.

The Kenny/Hangman tag team led directly in to Kenny's world title run, Hangman's redemption arc and his subsequent title run. That's the best way to use your tag team titles - build actual stories that use the belts as tools, not something to get yourself over.

If you want to see an example of a garbage tag run, look at that time FTR held tag belts in 3 different companies and told zero stories. I know I'm ragging on FTR a lot here but for all the acclaim they get as one of the best tag teams, they seem to utterly fumble the ball when it comes to telling interesting stories.

>>16649965
While I agree with most of what you've said I would have to suggest that it's only true of modern day tag wrestling. Nowadays tag teams are only as relevant as the subsequent singles storylines that develop from their tag team pairing, but there definitely have been times when tag wrestling was relevant all on its own. It's just that it took dedicated booking and specific circumstances to achieve... and even then it rarely lasted very long. There was a time when fans cared about tag feuds and not just singles storylines.

In the West it was largely a result of the territories needing feuds to keep attendance up when the champ wasn't in town or to fill up weekly programming when the champ was a ppv-only attraction. In Japan the tag scene was usually based on faction warfare, which yes typically was used to feed into a single storyline but often enough became so substantial and so bloodthirsty that it stood on its own.

Modern day tag wrestling is either midcard filler, where neither man is ever going to achieve anything of worth on their own or singles stars "slumming" it in the tag division for a minute while the booker experiments with other single talent.
>>
>>16648911
Their synchronization is really good.
>>
How can they be the GOATS when no one ever paid to see them?
>>
>>16650065
I guess what I'd say to that is that tag wrestling doesn't have much in the way of relevancy in the modern era. They're good at telling a handful of stories and only those stories, and they outright go against the very fabric of what tag wrestling used to be
>Can they coexist?
>Breakup angles
>Heavys/foils for the leader of a faction
Anything else typically boils down to "we're a better team than you!" which is an offshoot from the other kind of wrestling story that rarely draws big interest - "I'm a better wrestler than you!" shit rarely draws enough intrigue. I hate what tag wrestling has become and I hate that FTR are determined to shit it up.
>>
>>16650200
We're basically in agreement then. Modern tag wrestling is more or less a "greatest hits" reenactment of earlier eras, FTR are a (poor) love letter to midsouth tag wrestling, Young Bucks are a tribute act to The Rockers, etc.

The last time I enjoyed a series of tag matches purely for the in-ring work would probably be some combination of Astronauts, Strong BJ, and/or Violent Giants. Runaway SUPLEX was good too. I was excited when hell froze over and Nagata teamed with Suzuki but NJPW absolutely failed to capitalize on it.

Kenny, Jericho and Cody are the active guys to whom AEW's success can be realistically ascribed for various reasons. Kenny for the groundwell, Jericho as a sell to the execs, Cody for the connections with said execs.
The Bucks are always just kind of there, and honestly they've never even been popular in AEW.

>>
>>16651315
True, very true. It's well known that Vince hates tag teams and HHH doesn't seem to have much fondness for them either.

NJPW isn't much better. The last good storyline was Dangerous Tekkers vs LIJ and that was only just okay. TenCozy were the last dregs of better times and they're long past their primes. AJPW is probably the only company right now that pays any attention to tag teams... and they somehow juggle two tag titles on a thin roster.

Young Bucks are dimeless flippy shitters, always have been. Yardtard thuperkick faggot party parasites that just do flippy shit retardation to impress themselves and friends and no one else. Its the same story everywhere; sooner or later more often than not, people get sick of their fucking shit and schtick.
