While the WWE Tag Team Championship only dates back to 2002, it is still considered one of the most prestigious championships in the history of tag team wrestling. The championship got its start after it was decided that the World Tag Team Championship would be exclusive to the RAW brand. After this announcement, then-SmackDown! General Manager Stephanie McMahon created her own version of the Tag Team Championship. She then declared that the fist champions would be the duo that survived a brutal tournament. The victors of that tournament were Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit. Since that time, many great tag teams have staked claim to the prestigious championship, including the Dudleys, Los Guerreros and the World's Greatest Tag Team. Below is a complete list of the WWE Tag Team Champions. Click each team for more
