An innovative double team move can help a tag team reach the next level. These tandem maneuvers separate the good from the great in the tag team ranks. What are the best such moves in WWE today?
The Hart Attack. Doomsday Device. 3D. These moves rank among the most feared, yet revered, double team maneuvers in WWE history. And the tag teams that performed them — The Hart Foundation, Road Warriors, and the Dudley Boyz, respectively — have carved legacies setting them as the best of the best.
Coincidence? Doubtful. The utilization of a great tandem move is often enough to give a tag team the boost needed to establish itself as truly special. What may have started as a random pairing can become a career-defining relationship.
