User:Adster95/World Wrestling Entertainment Tag Teams and Stables

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) tag teams and stables, organized by role within the promotion and assigned brands, including its developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW). The alias of the team is written on the left, while the team members are on the right. If a wrestler is inactive for any reason (due to injury, suspension, not wrestling for 30 days or other), that information is noted in the notes section. Although Tag Teams and Stables are generally assigned to a specific brand, all employees are subject to appear on any brand. All WWE on-screen talent appear as independent contractors.[1]

In professional wrestling, a tag team consists of two wrestlers who are working together as a team (more than two is called a stable). Often they are close partners and backstage friends who team with each other almost exclusively, while other times they are singles competitors who are booked together for just one match.

They usually wrestle against a like number of opponents on the other team or teams, however in the occasional "handicap match" there may be an unequal number of competitors on the different teams, for example André the Giant was often pitted against two or more opponents.

The term "tag team" has since become used in a metaphorical sense in common language for two or more people who alternate or cooperate in participation in an activity, and "tag-teaming" for the act of alternating with an ally, e.g. a couple tag-teaming in an argument with another person.

ECW has talent exchange agreements with both Raw and SmackDown, where members of ECW can regularly appear on either show.[2]
