[@shanehaney6040]

@@johnstone9396 I’ll admit, my entire logic for possibly swapping The Guns and Beer Money was that unlike The Guns, Beer Money was an entirely TNA creation. Considering the track record TNA creative had, its a miracle Beer Money wasn’t an abject failure

[@blakejarvis5302]

i think beer money should be 1 or amw should be the other 2 only because the company truly believed in them for some reason they never truly believed in mcm they should have

[@princealigorna7468]

For all the ups and downs TNA/Impact has had in its 20 years, there's always been 3 things that have remained consistently good. The X Division has always been the place the stars of tomorrow shine, and the car crash matches and open weight concept means that even in the most fallow periods you still get some jaw dropping entertainment. The Knockouts is consistently the best women's division on the planet (everyone else is finally catching up, but even now there's still a bunch of good going on there), and the tag team division always gets a chance to shine.

[@venomousnate7263]

Motor City Machine Guns, Beer Money, LAX, AMW, Team 3D, and Bad Influence are some of my favorite tag teams that came out of TNA.

[@talkintomenow]

TNA's Tag Team Scene was one of my favorite parts of the show. Every team that broke up in TNA had a show stealing story behind them. Because each and every team was given more than enough time to establish themselves, both people in each Team felt like stars in their own right. It never felt out of place for someone in a Tag Team to challenge for a World Title.

[@roybledsoe24]

TNA tag division was so damn entertaining.

[@shadowwarrior7218]

It was the best in the world at the time. Early to mid 2000s TNA was epic. X division was gold.

[@aaronh3347]

Still has been recently, the North was really good, and the Good Brothers, Finn Juice are solid and there are some other decent teams still hanging about there. TNA/Impact has almost always had a pretty good tag team scene probably because they get the cream of the crop since WWE has no interest in tag teams.

[@KingTodd_gaming_]

"BEER MONEY!!!!" They were so good together I always wished they made it to WWE together

[@Hitomora]

No way WWE would just shit all over it and call them Roode Storm and erase EVERYTHING they had worked for

[@aaronh3347]

I don't, WWE tag team wrestling sucks. The only ones who have been treated well in recent memory are The New Day and the Usos who are both great teams, but the company just doesn't give a crap about tag team wrestling. Wish both of them stayed with Impact/TNA could have both had great singles careers and every once in a while reunited to help each other out or to fill out the tag division when needed.

[@blakeallsop2465]

Beer Money is without a doubt my favorite Tag team in TNA's history. They were such a well laid out act and the early days with Jacqueline were fun too. Even though I'm a proper Detroit native, I've never really cared for the Motory City Machine Guns. They were good, but a little to flippy for me, kind of like the proto Young Bucks.

[@Hyde_Hill]

While flippy their matches at least still had some logic behind them, basic tagging, selling and psychology. Plus a lot less botches. Same can not be said for the Bucks and most of AEW's tag division.

[@SadwichPunch2100]

TNA gets a lot of flak, deservedly so, but for a while in the mid to late-00s they consistently put out the best pro wrestling product in America. Their Tag Division was awesome, the X-Division innovated a lot of the flipping work-rate style we see as common place today, their Knockouts' division was a full decade ahead of the "Women's Revolution" in WWE, and despite former WWE guys crowding the main event picture they had some good workers like Kurt Angle, Christian, Rhyno, Sting and mixed in home grown talent like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Bobby Roode, Abyss, and more.

[@Hyde_Hill]

Yeah one of the main issues with TNA was that while the highs where higher the lows where lower. Perfectly summarized in Claire Lynch. Matches? Super. AJ, Angle, Kaz, Daniels? Super. Story? OMFG RUN!

[@SadwichPunch2100]

@@Hyde_Hill I agree and disagree. I certainly agree their lows were so low. However, I disagree that storytelling was TNA's problem. Simply because I think it depends on the story. Angle vs Samoa Joe, one of the best and well told feuds of the 21st century. Team Angle vs Team Cage with AJ caught in the middle simply phenomenal. The story of Abyss and the multiple growths and character changes he went through, great. The Main Event Mafia was excellent. 3D vs the X-Division, great heel work. Watching the personal growth of guys like AJ, Daniels, Kaz, Bobby Roode, James Storm, Eric Young, Jay Lethal, Petey Williams all great. Don't get me wrong Claire Lynch, that's Katie Vick levels of bad. Still to me that was during the downfall of TNA, Dixie was becoming an on air talent, Jeff I think was already pushed out of the company cuz he got caught banging Karen Angle (now Jarrett). Hogan and Bischoff were coming in making unnecessary changes. From 2005-2011 TNA had the best wrestling program on television.

I have a question and I hope someone can answer. I watched TNA like 10-15 years ago but did not know most of characters. There was one tag team storyline I remembered was amazing. There was a tag team champions that have rivalry with another team. They get into a brawl and 1/2 of the tag champs and 1/2 of the rival teamwere injured. So the manager at that time decided that the uninjured half of the tag champ will team with the uninjured half of the rival team to defend the championship against another team, I think that was Team Canada. And they lost the championship, but reclaimed the titles shortly after. That was when the injured peeps (former team mates) returned to challenge the champs (their other halves originally). Man, if someone can tell me which team was this. That will mean the world to me. It was amazing because it was not done in WWE and that story was so good for me. LOL. Please help.
