1.
@Kushida_Canada)-The IWGP Junior Tag Team Champions get their
first #1 ranking after defeating the ROH World Tag Team
Champions on 8/10. It was a HUGE victory for the champs as they
scored arguably the biggest win of the weekend over the top
(again, arguably) the team with the biggest tag team titles in
the U.S. Very few teams could claim the quality of opponents
(reDRagon) as solid as Shelley & KUSHIDA. It was almost a full
sweep by the official voters as Time Splitters were not any
lower than #2 on anyone’s ballot. Time will tell if they can
continue this hot streak! #5 in the online poll.
2.
Team Champions grab their first ranking after defeating Keel
Holding twice (in a straight up tag and 8 Man Tag) in one night
on 8/8 to retain the titles. Those two wins actually snapped a 3
match losing streak for the team, but as the poll stated, prior
to that, they had won 3 straight matches so they have now won 5
of their last 8 matches as a team. With some of the teams
they’ve beaten this year, it’s likely you’ll be seeing them
crack the Top 5 again before the end of 2014.
3.
has this team popped up in the Top 5 in the last few months? The
answer is 3 and they don’t show any signs of stopping any time
soon. They are 5-0 so far as a team as they are dominating PWAS
Detroit as tag champs. If they can really start adding some
strength of competition with some established teams to their win
list, a #1 ranking is still a very good possibility. They’ll
need to keep winning in order to keep getting ranked and with 5
wins already together, an even stronger win streak could do
wonders for them.
4.
Kazarian @FrankieKazarian)-Here’s a team that currently don’t
hold any titles, though they do have an ROH World Tag Team Title
shot coming up on 8/15 at ROH Field of Honor. A tag team title
win there and it’s doubtful that anyone will be able to deny
them the #1 spot. The win vs. The Young Bucks on 8/9 at ROH
marked their 3rd straight win as a team. Considering their
quality of opponents, a title win at ROH would almost guarantee
their first #1 ranking. We’re definitely interested to see what
happens, that’s for sure!
5.
the best tag team in the world? For those not yet familiar with
them, names like The Young Bucks might be thrown out as an
alternative answer to that question. Word to the wise…The
Hooligans have already beaten The Young Bucks. Not only that,
they’re currently sitting pretty (as pretty as a bearded bully
can be) in the #1 spot in the Tag Team Top 50 and this #5
ranking will only add to that. They won one of the bigger
matches of the weekend as they defeated Team Friday (B-Boy &
Homicide) and Team IOU in a 3 Way on 8/10 at IWA Mid-South to
finish the weekend with a 2-1 record (and 3 titles by the way).
People’s Champs. F1rst Generation (James Anthony @87JamesAnthony
& Victor Andrews @Im_MrEverything)-The PWF and NEW RWC Tag Team
Champions dominated the poll for most of the day until The
Prestige closed the gap at the end of the day. In the end, it
was too little too late and this hungry young tag team collected
their first People’s Champs award.
