WWE: Ranking the five best tag teams of the 2010’s

4. Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection

What, you thought I’d only include men’s tag teams? Pfft. Women pairings know their way around a squared circle, too, and it would be criminal to deprive the first ever WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions of a spot on this list after the work they put in together during the latter half of this decade, long before a women’s tag division ever came to pass.

Bayley and Sasha Banks have been closely linked together as onscreen besties (in apropos art imitating life fashion) ever since they tore the house down in Brooklyn at NXT TakeOver in 2015. As a result, the two often were in each other’s corner to see the other win a major Women’s Championship, but it wasn’t until 2018 that WWE had them frequently work as a tag team.

This was when WWE was slowly integrating their own women’s tag team division, which eventually gave us the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships.

Along the whole way of their tag team run, Banks and Bayley adapted the sweet chemistry they created as opponents into even better chemistry as partners. Even as heels on SmackDown, their in-ring offense as a team continues to be fluid and smart.

It almost seems unfair to say Bayley and Sasha Banks were the best tag team of the decade for WWE when women’s tag team wrestling is still a new thing in WWE introduced during the tail end of the 2010’s. Yet, they have done such a remarkable job as a unit in a short amount of time that it’s impossible to ignore them.
