What can you really say about these two? They were big, strong, tough bad asses, and in the early 90's, they were just what All Japan and WCW needed. We discuss our general fandom of Dr Death Steve Williams and Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy, their dominance wherever they went, and how we would defeat them... yes, really. Listen!…

This one's going out by popular request! By who, you ask? Me. Colin. I requested this one. Billy and Chuck are a classic example of a few different types of tag team. 1) 2 guys who the company liked, but didn't know what to do with, so they made them a team and 2) A team who burned bright and fast and was gone before you knew it. Such an interestin…

I didn't realize until I was editing the podcast just now, that it's Tracy Smothers Birthday today. We discuss this in the podcast, but when Tracy passed away, we wanted to cover a tag team he was on, and we chose the FBI, but we really wanted to do this team. I'm happy we did it, and I'm happy that it can go up on Tracy's Birthday. Happy Birthday …

People let me tell ya 'bout my Besttttttt Friends. Chuck Taylor and Trent Baretta, two guys from different backgrounds, took two completely different paths, but arrived together to become one of the best tag teams in the past 10 years. What did we have to talk about in the "Championships and Accomplishments" portion? Do Championships and Accomplish…

No, this episode isn't rated. We're talking about JC Ice and Wolfie D, the tag team known as PG13. Possibly best known as the guys who rapped their way to the ring with the Nation of Domination early on, but they were so much more than that. In USWA during the mid 1990's, they were the kings of tag team wrestling in Memphis, TN. What previously cov…

Together and separately, known by many names. Harry Smith, TJ Wilson, DH Smith, Tyson Kidd, Davey Boy Smith Jr, The Stampede Bulldogs, whatever you know them as, this team started teaming when they were kids and rolled it into a couple of WWE tag team championships. Did they make the WWE's wacky tag team list? How underrated is Tyson Kidd? Lets dis…

We said we weren't gonna pull from the new WWE top 50 list, and boy did we not! Another team that burned bright for a relatively short period of time, Hayabusa and Jinsei Shinzaki were quite the unlikely duo. One from Michinoku Pro, the other from FMW, having tag success in All Japan? Yup! That's what you get with this weeks team. Where did we pref…

Davey Boy Smith and the Dynamite Kid are inarguably one of the greatest tag teams of all time, and some may say their solo successes are even more impressive. We get into their WWF success and their incredible run in Japan, but we also talk about the not so great reputation of the Dynamite Kid and what it meant for the team. What is the big "first"…

A few weeks off due to technical difficulties (talked about in the intro) but we're back and I think it was worth the wait because we are talking about the Lucha Bros this week! Hopping on everyone's radar with their appearances on Lucha Underground, these two brothers would quickly become one of the hottest tag teams in wrestling. What lucha wrest…

When you talk about what makes a team so great, a lot of times, it comes back to their influence on wrestling. And while there will never be another American Wolves, they paved the way for a style of team that's seen all across wrestling today. Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards had an intensity that was unmatched, but also had the ability to back it…

In advance of our match against them, we do a deep dive and talk about Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder. From hungry young upstarts, to Edge Heads, to a reunion that led to a Wrestlemania moment. Did we learn anything important leading up to our match? Which Major Brother did Michael Cole call the better one on commentary? Find out!…

I know, I know, when you read the team this week, you probably thought "The worm?! really?" but if that is the only thing you remember about Too Cool, I beg you to go back and watch. An unlikely pair that fit so unbelievably well, WWE realized what they had with Brian Christopher and Scott Taylor very early on and never looked back. From Too Sexy a…

We're back after a busy couple weeks with a very special "on the road" episode of Dreamwork! Something new this week, hopefully you guys enjoy this. Cheech and I set up the podcasting microphone between us while we drove home from Cleveland after an AIW show, so hop in the car with To Infinity and Beyond this week and hear what its like to be on th…

Episode 50! The Road Warriors! Do I need to say more? I don't think so!

A random Monday drop from your friends at Dreamwork?? You betcha! On our climb to episode 50, we stop off for a tag team we were both looking forward to covering, in Paul London and Brian Kendrick. Both smaller guys, both Texas Wrestling academy grads, the team seemed to work from the first time we saw them team together. We talk about their record…

Trent Acid and Johnny Kashmere were the team known as the Backseat Boyz, and on the Indie scene in the early 2000's, there was no one hotter and no one cooler. They owned the North East Independent scene and their impact is still seen to this day. We talk Dream Sequence's, Cheech busted out the VCR, and Colin tells tales of working with them. I kno…

As singles wrestlers, Sasha Banks and Bayley helped usher in the Women's revolution in the WWE. As a tag team, they bring the Women's revolution in WWE to new heights. Teaming on and off since 2016, Sasha and Bayley already have a strong claim at being called the best women's tag team of all time. What prior Dreamwork tag teams did we compare Sasha…

Also known as the Hardcore Chair Swingin Freaks, Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten weren't the most successful team in ECW history, but they just might be the most "ECW team" in ECW history. While mostly remembered for their wild brawls and "chair swingin", Balls and Axl both were extremely talented wrestlers between the ropes as well. What advice did A…

LAX has had many many members thru out their history, but none had quite the impact (no pun intended) of the OGz, Homicide and Hernandez. They were presented differently than anything that was going on at the time, and when the time came, they could more than back it up in the ring. How often does a team win "Best Gimmick" and "Tag Team of the Year…

"The King of Hearts" Owen Hart and "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith. Both extremely accomplished singles wrestlers, both had success in other tag teams, Brothers in law, and in 1996, tag team partners. The tag team scene in WWF in 1996/1997 wasn't the strongest, but that doesn't take away from the greatness of Owen Hart and The British Bulldog…

This one may be a little far out there for some more casual wrestling fans, but stay with us here. The Ups and Downs of World Class Championship wrestling have been well documented, and the Von Erichs or Freebirds would have been the obvious choice, but we went a different direction. In 1985, Chris Adams and Gino Hernandez had it all, the looks, th…

3 for the price of 1 this week on Dreamwork, as we talk about Big E and Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and Big E, and Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods. That's right, we discuss all 3 versions of the New Day in one episode! From preachers to pyro to positivity to pancakes, we discus it all. Cheech and Colin disagree about which pairing is their favorite,…

Wrestling has had a ton of "super teams" through out history, but maybe none more memorable than the Rock and Sock Connection. Maybe that's because of the time period, and maybe that's because of the two men involved, but it definitely wasn't because of their longevity. For 4 long months in 1999, The Rock and Mankind achieved success that many team…

Before there was the APA, before there was Farooq, even before the infamous world title win over Vader, there was Doom. A young fresh to the business Ron Simmons was paired with a seasoned veteran in Hacksaw Butch Reed, and I don't think there has ever been a more intimidating tag team in history. They didn't have the longest run as a tag team, but…

We've discussed before, but 2002/2003 was a golden era for Smackdown, and when Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin came on the scene at the beginning of 2003, they rose right up to being not only the top tag team in WWE, but also the top tag team in all of wrestling. Where did they rank among the all time greatest tag teams? What is the name of that …

Reach for the skies! It's time for us boys to talk about #DemBoys. Jay and Mark Briscoe started wrestling in 2000, and by 2002, only 2 years into their careers, joined Ring of Honor and never looked back. In almost 20 years with the company, they have wrestled a "who's who" of professional wrestlers from the Rock and Roll Express to the Headbangers…

One of our longest episodes, for one of Cheech's new favorite teams. Luke and Butch are most commonly known as the Bushwhackers from their run in WWF in the late 80's and early 90's, but they have a long storied history all over the world as the Sheepherders. They had a Dave Meltzer 5 star match... what? Who was it against? When? What did we think …

We always try to mix it up here, we always try to make sure we are talking about different types of tag teams. Different styles, different eras, different promotions, etc. This week, we check a box we had yet to check, and we are talking about a British tag team in Moustache Mountain. From the Indies in the UK and North America, to one of the bigge…

2020 was a crazy year for basically every human on planet earth. With that being said, as professional wrestlers, this was definitely the least amount of matches we have ever had in single year. BUT that gives us a chance to cover ALL of them in one podcast. Listen as we discuss which matches were our favorites, which ones were not our favorites, a…

Happy Holidays! To end the year, we decided to do things a bit different and give you guys two back to back weekly specials! Next week we will be doing a tag team wrestling year in review, but this week we decided to relive 10 of our favorite teams to cover over the past year. From The Hollywood Blondes to Team No Respect, did your favorite make th…

I'm not sure we could have followed up last weeks team with any team more different than the Holy Demon Army. No schtick, No funny business, straight forward ass kicking and 5 star matches. 2 of the 4 Pillars in Japan, Kawada and Taue started off as rivals, but came together go be one of the most successful teams in All Japan Pro Wrestling and all …

After Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock, I don't think any 2 wrestlers defined the "Attitude Era" of the WWE more than Road Dogg and Billy Gunn. Possibly most known for a catch phrase, but The Outlaws found success fast and often in the late 90's and with good reason. Which member of the team did Colin think did more of the in ring work? Now tha…

When Cheech and I first started getting into Indie wrestling, it was the late 90's/early 2000's. Indie wrestling was changing in that era, it was getting faster, it was getting more exciting, and I don't think there was any team more exciting than The SAT's. Trained by the great Mikey Whipwreck, they were on the ground floor of promotions like Ring…

On this show, we've covered teams of Brothers, I can think of a decent amount of tag teams that were Cousins, but an Uncle and his Nephew? I can only think of one team like that. Only 3 years apart, Uncle Eddie and his Nephew Chavo both had long careers and a lot to remember them by, but I'm not sure any of it was as fun as Los Guerreros. What did …

Whatcha gonna do brother... when Dreamwork talks about two of the biggest superstars in wrestling history?? They didn't have a ton of matches together, but does that really matter? It's Hulk freakin Hogan and The Motherfriggin Macho Man Randy Savage!! Audio gets a little jumbled at the end, and I'm no audio engineer, but I did my best to make it wo…

We're not talking about Tony Mamaluke or JT Smith, No mention of Chuck Palumbo or Big Vito, We are talking about Little Guido and Tracy Smothers. On paper, this team doesn't make any sense, One a scrappy shooter from New York City, the other a classic southern territory wrestler who's been everywhere. But when you really start thinking about it, an…

Coming out of left field, Cheech with this weeks team choice. They were Filthy Animals, but they were so much more, Rey Mysterio Jr and Billy Kidman. Starting with Rey in a mask and Kidman in a beater and jorts, ending with Rey in a mask with Kidman in tights, we talk about all of it and everything in between. What long time WCW enhancement team to…

The Wyatt Family, The Bludgeon Brothers, whatever you know them as, the team of Erik Rowan and Luke Harper seemed to have it all. Size? Check. Speed? Check. Cool Gimmick? Check and check! We try to get past our "Brodie bias" but admittedly, it comes out a time or two. Where did they rank among the other tag teams of their time? Which gimmick did we…

Hello Dreamworkers! I'm sorry for the week off, I explain more in the intro, but let's get down to this weeks team. Gedo is possibly better known now as the man behind booking one of the biggest wrestling promotions in the world, New Japan Pro Wrestling. Since 1989 though, he and Jado have been working for just about every promotion in Japan (and e…

If you're a podcast about tag team wrestling, and you don't talk about the Rock and Roll Express, are you even a podcast about tag team wrestling?? I'm surprised it took us this long to get here, but we couldn't just hit you with all the heavy hitters right out of the gate. We were discussing "young, athletic, baby face" tag teams, and the Rock and…

We stumbled upon a theme month without even meaning too. We started with the Young Bucks, we moved on to the Hardy Boyz, and now we've landed on Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty, The Rockers. We get into their early work, some of our favorite opponents for them, and decide we need to build a time machine so we can keep them together for a new look…

Who would have thought that a couple brothers from Cameron, North Carolina, would become one of the most well known teams in wresting history. Matt and Jeff Hardy have wrestled just about every tag team on the planet over the last 20+ years and not just wrestled them, but did it at a very high level. Yet, after doing the research, Colin believes th…

I don't want to spoil any of the podcast in the description here, but the "accomplishments" portion of this weeks podcast is long. But included in those accomplishments, is the fact that the Young Bucks are the Wrestling Observer tag team of the DECADE. A wild stat in itself, but what's wilder, is how they did it. From Dragon Gate, to Ring Of Honor…

Joey Mercury, a young vet with a tag team background. Johnny Nitro, fresh off tough enough with potential coming out of his ears. Put em together and add a beautiful athletic manager in Melina and the perfect gimmick for the times, and you get MNM. Has any team had a stronger debut match... ever? Where does Cheech claim that Melina "pays rent"? All…

The ECW tag team scene wasn't exactly booming in 1999/2000, but the pairing of two top stars were there to save the day. From looking at them, you would think that Lance Storm and Justin Credible would have anything in common, but a little dungeon training and a love for wrestling brought them together. What teams didn't they get a chance to wrestl…

Doesn't matter what you know them as, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly have dominated everywhere they have teamed. We discuss our history with Bobby Fish, our admiration for Kyle O'Reilly, and dig deep into their tag team style. They have an incredible ground game, and their strikes are unmatched, but what really tips them over the edge and separates t…

We made it to 18! Dreamwork can officially vote! To celebrate, we decided to bust out a very special episode on Beautiful Bobby Eaton and Sweet Stan Lane, The Midnight Express. How good was Bobby Eaton? How great were Stan Lanes karate kicks (for the time that is). Find out all that and listen to Colin hum the Midnight Express theme... more than on…

Way back in the early days of Impact wrestling, when it was referred to as NWA TNA and had a Pay Per View every week, Chris Harris and James Storm rode onto the scene and were exactly what NWA needed. They were hungry, talented, and relatively unknown. Where did they come from? Where did they go? Would they have worked as a team elsewhere? Find out…

The last year of WCW was a weird time. Still, with all the bad that they were putting out, their school (the WCW Power Plant) was actually producing some incredible talent. Mark Jindrak and Sean O'Haire were the definition of this. Only 6 months of training under their belts, and it took the pair no time to make an impact. How did they not have mor…

Dreamwork! Now with random intro music that Colin put together. This weeks team may get overlooked because of Bret Hart's individual success, but listen in and find out why they were actually more influential than we thought. Were they better Heels or Babyfaces? Did Anvil lose some of his confidence when Bret started to take off? All this and so mu…
