You can listen to Brian each week on the 6:05 Superpodcast at 605pod.com.
Tully Blanchard recently did an interview where he said that No AEW talent asked him or Arn for Advice. Sounds about right.
I can’t imagine this includes FTR.
@@Vista_81yea sur pal
Brian's saying those Japanese names and Jim's reaction to it is pure gold😂😂
Dang, Sean Waltman can come out of retirement, team up with ABC and they can become ABC123
Such good shit pal
👏👏well done sir
Still better booking than Tony Khanoki's BS.
Somebody get this guy a job as head writer 👍🏾🤣
With their manager Doe Ray Me
I can listen to these two read these PWI lists all day😂😂
I’m at the point where I could listen to them read a menu
The matches between the Magical Sugar Rabbits and 121000000 were classics! 😆
I had tears in my eyes for laughing so hard at this. So bloody funny.
Aussie Open #2? That is an insult to our intelligence.
Read this comment prior to listening... Can't wait now 😂😂😂
I googled them and a goddamn golf tournament is the first hit 😂
They're great, but losing to one MJF is almost as bad as Hulk Hogan completely destroying Ric Flair and Arn Anderson.
@@Fencellisktheyre not “great” lol they look like any other white indy gymnastics guys. no charisma whatsoever but hey atleast they can do cartwheels!
@@davidkelling159I googled and Djokovic is the first result
Brian saying the Japanese names just makes the teams sound funnier lol
For anyone who hasn't gotten to the halfway point yet:
Yes, this is 20 minutes of teams you've never heard of and will forget exist before the video's even done
I had to tap out after about 8 minutes, the whole exercise is just asinine.
@@chuckles9767 You sir win comment of the day.
Brian definitely went beyond the top 10 to entertain us 😂 also, not taking this list seriously, I’m surprised the Workhorsemen was not in this list. I saw them wrestle at a local event last month and they don’t look awful
With Brian struggling to pronounce most of them and Jim losing his mind. “Magical sugar rabbits” took me out
@@christophercamacho8074 they are sitting at #80, Brian skipped over some people, #93 Dork Order. #94 The Hardys
Don't know what's funnier Jim's reactions or Brian laughing 😂
Lmao bishamon turning into besame mucho cracked me up cause in spanish "besame mucho" means kiss me a lot. We need a segment where jim cornette reads rosters+ factions from smaller promotions around the world.
The Usos went viral so many times in the past year. They are in the middle of the hottest storyline in the business. Who cares if they aren't a team right now...their work speaks for itself
they listed other tag teams that were broke up too. So I agree 100%
Yes, some of them have broken up and are wrestling as Singles as a result, others are wrestling as Singles because of injuries suffered by their Tag Team Partners. By the time Brian and Jim got through the first 40 Teams, they realized that their are Men's Tag Teams and Women's Tag Teams on this list.
They aren't compelling in ring but they make up for it with the bloodline stuff. Especially Jey.
... They're part of the main story of the most mainstream company. Granted I think it's tired but it's the big story there
Didn't they split up after WrestleMania?
Love it when Brian laughs
He completely lost his sh!t when he got to the Magical Sugar Rabbits 😂
So do i
I have rewound 10:58 1000 times already 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Brian was legit crying laughing
Thank you for this timestamp. "Magical Sugar Rabbits" will be forever etched in my mind.
My Dr. Pepper legit went flying on that one
The way Jim says “what?!?!” Cracks me df up 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Magical Sugar Rabbits sounds like a breakfast cereal i ate when I was a kid.
What?! What did you say?
I love listening to this just so I can laugh at these team names with Jim and Brian. Love it😂
PWI just pulled the teams out of a hat
Brian Last has the best laugh.
I prefer Jim's but to each their own uce
Yeah Last cracks me up, I love the little snicker he does before breaking out in complete laughter 😅
This is like looking at the Billboard top 100 and trying to recognise a single name
I will definitely take MCMG as the number 5, even in their forties they kill it.
Agreed. One of the greatest tag teams TNA gave the wrestling world and still one of the best.
Brian laugh makes anything 5x funnier than it is can’t lie lol
Magical sugar rabbits!!!
The Magical Sugar Rabbits? Now I wish it were Easter so I could get some Peeps. What the hell man?
Damn I wish PWI was covering do it yourself wrestling back in the 80’s. Me and my brothers made our own championship belt out of cardboard and aluminum foil. We called it the Cleveland Heavyweight Championship. We had some real brawls over that title.
Surprisingly, the actual DIY tag team didn't make this list, despite working on RAW every week. 😄
@@quentinkaasa47 😂😂
Magical sugar Rabbit got me bad😂😂
The VeloCities are very very good at what they do. Young Australian team
The Usos not being in the Top 20 is laughable. They ran the entire 2022 and didn't disband till August 2023.
They were involved in the biggest storyline in all of Pro Wrestling and Main Evented WrestleMania. You can't convince me that's not worthy of Top 20.
it was worthy and that list is a joke. for 2023 i wouldn't dispute ftr at 1. 2 should have been ko and sami. 3 should have been the usos.
Wtf is an uso?
@@a_ya5555 Samoan for brother
Todays teams are sissies. 1988-89 tag teams, the road warriors, demolition, powers of pain, steiner bros, british bulldogs, brain busters, midnight express, rock n roll express, etc etc. Today's teams are like women in comparison. Where TF are the brutal tag teams of today like LOD, powers of pain, Demolition, etc?? Id personally LOVE some team like those to come out and brutalize all these geighasp wimpy teams of today.
Well they should take some lessons from the barbarian(powers of pain) because I don't see anything powerful or intimidating about the uso's now that I've skimmed thru some of their matches.
Travis is going to get suspended for a week for drawing Jim with a 7up.
It was the magic sugar rabbit
How the hell are the usos lower than the young bucks wtf
Because they got their ass whoop and the usos didn't
How is that your biggest complaint about this list?
Because it's Dave Meltzer's list
Are the USOs even on the list?!
@@wholesome193Meltzer doesn't work with Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
By number 12 I'm pretty sure Brian was making things up
The two weeks that Cody and Jey were tagging, was still better than Aussie Open.
The magical sugar rabbits lmfao
The angle with the Magical Sugar Rabbits must be that their opponents keep stopping them from getting Trix cereal. Always high stakes for those matches.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LMMFAO
Listening to this just proves to me that tag team wrestling is dead. There are no more major teams anymore.
You can MAYBE push a Top 10 if you really stretched it but yeh lol.
They posted irrelevant teams. No one cares if teams outside of WWE, AEW, TNA, NJPW are listed
@@alesitercrimson24"no one" you don't speak for everyone dude. Some ppl have to care 😂
@@Brndn350Z lol why are you here if you think this way
Every major team in the last 5 years are either no longer together (Usos and Friscoes) or extremely stale (New Day and The Bucks).
You guys have just given most of these teams the most recognition they’ll ever get. Expect many Christmas cards.
This is why people don't take wrestling seriously
They never did
They need to do these top 100 Pro-Wrestling Categories clips. The reaction from Jim and Brian makes my day positive. The best tag team. 😆👏🏾
I don't care about the list. It's a joke. But Brian's laugh is seriously underrated, I know Corny's is kind of iconic, but Brian's is infectious.
18:48 - someone let Brian know what "bussy" means. Please. LMAO 👌🤣🤘
Magical Sugar Rabbits😂😂😂
FTR got a good match out of the Righteous (aka The Knights of the Porcelain Throne);
Dax and Cash should get the #1 spot for the next decade.
Brian laughing always makes me laugh
I'm at 32 (The Magical Sugar Rabbits) and we still haven't gotten to The Usos.
What. The. Fuck.
The company should be never mentioned again when The Usos are not listed in the top 5 after the year they had. Absolute joke
Wanted to see where (if) the Pudding Gang fell on this list... 54
With the Dark Order at 93, and the Hardys at 94. If that ain't a sign for Matt and Jeff to call it a day, i don't know what is
This list is so much more entertaining than a big percentage of wrestling matches these days.
Nah
Need more videos of Bryan Last just telling Cornette tag team names
Magical Sugar Rabbits. Now I've heard everything.
I end up in tears when listening to this. I have heard this at least five times. Especially when Jim Cornette and Brian Last react the way do. They react differently and its great.
Mcmg deserve more love. They're everything the bucks wver wished they could be
Then they won't be on AEW
@@pcclericDidn’t they wrestle on there once? But nope, MCMG are the team that the Bucks and their demented fanbase believe themselves to be
I was pretty drunk when I heard this list and it was perfect.
Oh drunk, you're so cool 👍
'WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE'- Jim cornette 2023
Wish WWE would committ to their tag teams, and stop teasing cracks in their tag team so often
They didnt under Vince, Triple H loves teams. Thats most of the roster now.
AEW does the same. It’s one of their favourite storylines.
Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley should form a tag team called The Plumbers. Book it, Tony!
Jim was full of the Michael Jackson references here
When brian said magical sugar rabbits I spat out the water I was drinking 😂
Bussy🤣🤣🤣. "Tell me he didn't just say that" - Booker T
Just because the Uso's aren't currently together doesn't mean they don't deserve to be on that list. I personally have them top 5, but I would not accept anything lower than 15.
They had Kevin and Sami, Liv Morgan and Raquel, and Chelsea and Sonya who all aren't together too
USOs didn’t make the list at all which is shocking to me
How did The DiAngelo Family get so far down despite being tag champs? Where's Chase U? Where's Diamond Mine? Alpha Academy? The Brawling Brutes?
I love how Jim just goes, of course they are with aggravation, when Brian attempts to say the Japanese names #4 on the list 😂
"Tits McGee and Boots Randolph" lmaoooo
I can’t believe they named all these Japanese tag teams but they haven’t named the greatest Japanese tag team around, Sashimi and Unagi!
Bruh 🤣☠️. Like Axe and Smash, Sashimi and Unagi had a 3rd man; Tako
Vs Soy and Duck Sauce
ALL the "vitys/hitys/mitys" but zero requirement of "Maturity" 😂😂😂😂
13:02 Brian, please for us, you have to do a “YESSSS BOOOOOOY!” to Jim one of these days. To get him back for the singing.
Remember when people used to take the Observer more seriously than PWI? The Observer backslid, PWI didn't gain ground.
Where are the Usos? Why so low down?
Brian Last yelling Bussy is nuts
I hope they keep churning out these ridiculous lists because hearing Jim and Brian's reactions is just priceless!
Idc if I'm the only one, but I like the Viking Raiders. They're big, unique, oddly agile for their size and I like their matches, especially earlier in the year vs Sheamus & Drew
Yes, where are the Usos. But Jey White & Juice Robinson are another notable omission. Even Better Than You Baby should be above most of these teams.
RIP Tag Team Rasslin’
I've actually seen Leon Slater and Man Like Dereiss (it's pronounced DE-REE-SE) before at a Progress show in London and they're pretty decent, Dereiss has appeared on NXT UK before and I think Slater has just been signed by Impact.
But for the most part they're a pair of unknown British indie guys, who I didn't even know were a tag team, so yeah they shouldn't be on this list
The usos were champions for 50% of the timeframe that was set, main evented wrestle mania, pinned the biggest star in the world and we're apart of the biggest story in 20 years, what the fuck 😂😂😂
Tokyo Joshi Pro’s names take the cake: Magical Sugar Rabbits, 121000000 (1 to 1 million), Free Wi-Fi
That 1 to 1 million is a clever name
Cornette was confused on ABC’s tag name, it’s
A = Ace
B = Bey
C = Connection
I thought the c was for Chris but connection makes more sense
@@pleaseshutup7053 yeah, it’s a spin on Rock & Foley’s tag team name lmao
Great team, dreadful name
How long before we get Cornette's reaction on Meltzer's typo where Dave put AEW instead of OVW when talking about Doug Basham?
The fact that Brian has been hyping up Giulia, but doesn't know her stable, makes me wonder about him haha But I also love that a random ass tag team from Stardom beat out the Elite.
This list shows how bag tag team wrestling has been handled for the last few years ..
Even the most diehard Japanese and Mexican wrestling fans probably don’t know who most of those Japanese and Mexican tag teams are. Most of them rank above people who’ve been on NXT or RAW and Smackdown.
2:59 and I am biased MCMG are a top 5 tag team always have been stop hating😭😭
Most of the names on this list is like Tag-team Trivial Pursuit: The No One Gives A Shit Edition.
"Bang.."
"i'm sorry he broke up with Olufsen" - i died.
Besame mucho!!! LOL 😂😂😂
We really need to get Jim to watch a Stardom show, could be comedy gold after this.
As much as I like Bishamon, kinda a bummer that West Coast Wrecking Crew didn't even make the list.
Top 10 without The Usos gave me an aneurism. They were champions and a team longer than Owens and Zayn
they didn’t make the list at all
@@gothard5 I didn't go all the way through. That breaks my heart😄
Brian is channeling his inner Mike Stoklasa here, where he's just reading weird names off of a list to a bewildered cohost. The fact that he just keeps mowing through names, giving Jim enough space to mumble half of a phrase, started making me laugh uncontrollably. I hope this segment comes back.
I'm sorry, Free Wi-Fi may be my new favorite team name lol
It had to be FTR there was no one else even close. but the Aussie Open as number 2 is a bit insane. KO and Sami as Third is okay I guess, but really the Usos not even in the top 3? I don't care if they aren't an active team, I love Damage CTRL but they are two high on the list as they constantly jobbed to "Super Bianca" and Charles. You know the Elite are complaining they are not in number 1. Hell Bullter Club Gold should be above the Elite. Yet real teams like The Street Profits, Imperium, New Day, Alpha Academy, the Creed Brothers, and the Viking Raiders are not even in the top 25 or arent' even listed.
Fucking "Bussy" got me. There's no way that's a real team.
If its a kayfabe list, Judgment Day should be number 1, no? Way more successful than any of the other top 10 teams listed.
Most of these sound like they came from a pro wrestling name generator 😂
The Mane Event are fantastic! They work for MLW..great guys and amazing talents.
Kinda funny that Claudio left WWE cuz he kept being the tag team guy and now we’re here…in another tag team lol
He like many people that went to aew are in worse positions than the company they came from.
Yea he was one of the guys destined to finally be used better but had no spot at the top. See Malakai Black, Miro, Keith Lee, Andrade who all got the same 😂
My favorite clip. I feel like Brian is doing the Impractical Jokers name game 😅
the magical sugar rabbits 😂
ABC(hate the name) is Ace & Bey Club.
And they might actually be the best teams they listed here other than FTR.
Great talent but I hate their ties to the Bullet Club and honestly I prefer them both as straight heels. Impact’s tag division right now though is probably the strongest it’s been since The North split up and the Good Bros came in and ruined everything. Subculture are a really fun team too even if they’re both tiny - Dani Luna’s bigger than the pair of them put together
True
You pretty have to be an avid reader of PWI to know who most of these 100 teams are.
Or watch anything other than WWE or AEW…
@@SiegeHannnah, thanks tho. I have a life
@@robdurfee6861 clearly not.
Here for Travis depicting Jim with a 7-Up instead of a Sprite Zero.
I knew Yuka Sakazaki was gonna get a mention and I wasn’t disappointed lmao😂😂😂
