It's easy to see why Power and Glory had their momentum halted: The Nasty Boys. The Nasties were tight with Hogan for some reason, which is why they walked into the WWF and took the *belts* (Vince hates when they're called that, by the way) on their first WWF pay-per-view as a team. Power and Glory being injured prior to their match with Legion of Doom at WrestleMania VII didn't help, as Power and Glory could only manage to work a squash. The combination of The Nasties in the WWF and Power and Glory being squashed on the biggest show of the year severely damaged whatever chance Roma and Hercules had to become the WWF tag team champs. Power and Glory should've rested instead of going to WrestleMania VII, then they could've taken the belts from The Hart Foundation in between WrestleMania and SummerSlam. When The Nasties took the WWF tag belts, that was the beginning of the end of the golden era of WWF tag teams. Sure, Legion of Doom took the straps and held them for several months, yet the belts then went to Money Inc, followed by The Natural Disasters--like I said, The Nasties signalled the beginning of the end of the WWF's golden era of tag teams.
I remeber the storylines back then, it seemed like they were trying to get in between the rivalry between The Rock n Roll Express and The Midnight Express, so we might have gotten some Midnight Express vs. The New Breed Matches as well as Rock n Roll Express vs. The New Breed. They might have also built a rivalry with The Fatasticss when they came to WCW.

I was lucky enough to have seen The Skyscrapers in Jackson TN at the civic center. Saw alot of legends. Mark Callous gave me an autograph. I saw him watching matches because now i know he was studying the match. He was nice, wish i knew where that program is. Oh well it happened i met him before he got famous 10 months later and went on to become a Legend. Much respect to Mark thank you for the many memories.
Very good story. Love hearing about fellow fans' interactions with wrestlers. One of my friends and I got to see the original Skyscrapers at a house show. They were HUGE. We cheered them when they demolished the Dynamic Dudes.
Let's be honest, it was for everyone's benefit that Sting and Warrior went their sperate ways. If they'd stayed as a team, not only would we probably not have gotten their iconic singles runs, but i can only imagine how it would've hampered Sting's in-ring progression. Warrior was always trash in the ring from the start of his career to his final appearance, and relied on his batshit crazy charisma, roided up muscles, and favorable booking to get over. He never improved much because he never wanted to or felt that he needed to. Sting on the other hand, actually put in the work. He was brought on by good people who actively mentored him, and were making sure that he could carry himself beyond just muscles and crazy promos. If they'd stuck together as over-inflated roid guerillas, neither of them would've had a lasting career.
@wrestlingsgreatestmoments There's a funny story concerning them. They started in Memphis and I think it was Dutch Savage who seen everyone gathered around the curtain to watch them face Dundee and Lawler so he joins, thinking everyone thought the match would be great. Turns out they were all watching because Sting and Warrior were awful 😂
This video was awesome. I loved the New Breed. Not many people talk about them. Austin and HHH were in the greatest era ever. If I had to add a team to the list I wouldve added the Fantastics or the Killer Bees.
Well, WWE has broken up every Tag Team they had since 1996 to early - La Resistance, Deuce and Domino, the WGTT, the Basham Brothers , Cade and Murdoch, the Spirit Squart, Rated-RKO, Team Hell No, Kendrick and London, Dibiase/Rhodes and so on...
Dustin Rhodes and Barry Windham . Beat Steve Williams and Terry Gordy. but then almost immediately were split up and dropped the World Tag team belts to Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas! They should have been given more time!
@wrestlingsgreatestmoments 💯 on that comment. I have a feeling that if they had stayed a tag-team, they would've ended up like The Barbarian & Warlord Pre-WWF/E but the NWA tag team versions.
Crush and Adam Bomb are a team that I had no idea existed until recently. Back when Adam Bomb debuted, I thought he would have made a great pairing with Crush, and that he should have adopted the nuclear gimmick while still retaining the name Crush.
Here's one that I reckon nobody else here remembers: Johnny B Badd and Michael Hayes! They were thrown together for a WCW Worldwide taping, then split on the same day. According to Cagematch, they had three matches with Harlem Heat. I saw two of these when they aired on Australian television. Of course, the WCW Worldwide tapings were done to cover several weeks of television, so all three matches took place on the same day. See for yourself: ua-cam.com/video/_iBUsTLxPGg/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/GKumNAiUOos/v-deo.html

I would put Bundy/Studd up there as well. They were dominant and should have been booked differently. Same with Akeem and Bossman, however it should have been One Man Gang and not that idiotic Akeem. Austin and HBK could have been something great as well but both weren't really interested in tag teams.
I think both Bundy/Studd and Akeem/Bossman were so dominant that it was difficult to book them except as special attractions and to use in big angles involving beatdowns.
Throwing teams together, splitting teams apart before they should have and leaving money on the table,not knowing what to with or releasing generational talent, no wonder WCW went under
I think the British Bulldogs ended too soon (pre WWF). When Dynamite Kid turned heel again (pre British Bulldogs). Had they stayed together longer, I believe that the Hart Foundation (pre WWF) would have been put over a few years earlier, and Brett Hart wouldn't have had that stupid "Cowboy Brett Hart" gimmick forced on him.

@@wrestlingsgreatestmoments Teddy Long said in an interview that Ole said Mark would never draw a dime, he wouldn’t be a main event guy, etc. So he left & went to WWF…🤦🏽♂️
Which Twin Towers? Akeem/Bossman or Luger/Windham? Doom were the longest running WCW World tag team champions ever. Not much more they could do - except one becomes WCW World Champion and fights the other in a main event.
The Can Ams and Demolition were supposed to have a back and forth tag title feud. This then became Strike Force Vs Demolition. However it all went wrong from there as fans wrongway cheered Ax and Smash at WM4. (as they would continue to do for the rest eight months) and then Martel was "injured" so he could look after his sick wife. The Powers of Pain were brought in as avengers for Strike Force and Vince briefly dabbled with making them the new two man Hulk Hogan before realising they were a couple of stiffs. So the WWF had to just lump a bad situation with the Demos being wrongway cheered against every babyface team around. In the end the Brain Busters were made new top heel team, the Powers also went heel and Ax and Smash hung onto the belts became proper babyfaces and top face team as the indestructible superhero team Tully and Arn would eventually screw for the belts.
10:00 I seriously doubt Stan and Bobby were meant to be in the Horsemen. They were feuding with Tully and Arn and had just won the belts in an emergency title change. It would make no sense for them to defect to JJ DAillon after they and Cornette had beaten Dillon's men. The Road Warriors turned heel, beat the Express for the belts and formed an alliance with the two remaining Horsemen Flair and Windham. The Express completed their face turn when they feuded with Paul E and the original Midnights. Kendall Windham, Michael Hayes and Butch Reed became prospective Horsemen. Then Barry Windham left and Flair and the Roadies separately turned face.
There's ALWAYS some garbage behind why teams aren't allowed to grow into great teams especially when it's crystal clear the connection, trust & response from the fan's undeniable! New Breed SUCKED PERIOD!
The best is when the doctors told one of the New Breed he'd be out for a year and he's back relatively quickly. Plus the one guy no-sold the cast by giving it a futuristic look.
New breed was total crap. If Sting and Ultimate warrior had stayed together neither would have been World Champions. I don't think this guy knows much about wrestling.
The Dynamic Duo of "Gentleman" Chris Adams & "The Handsome Halfbreed" Gorgeous Gino Hernandez who gave The Von Erichs a run for their $ in W.C.C.W. Plus "Rowdy" Roddy Piper & "Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff with "Ace" Cowboy Bob Orton could have easily beat the WWF Tag-Team Champions "The U.S Express" Barry Windham & Mike Rotundo.

Power and Glory should have been Tag Team Champions more than the Nasty Boys. I loved the New Breed. The New Breed could have been huge in NWA if they had stayed together
Power and Glory could've done with different outfits, but as a team, man, SO good. The Powerplex remains my favorite tag team finisher of all time.
