Headshrinkers could be higher if they're just looking at WWF/E achievements. That's probably why the Steiners are so low, but I'd have them much higher even just based on their tenure in the company.
It'll be interesting to see where the Dudleys finish.

Bushwhackers in last place already invalidates the list, IMO. They should be at least top 20.

Number one will obviously be Magnificent Muraco and "Cowboy" Bob Orton. Fixed.

I wonder if the Mega Powers would count as a tag team.... WWE.com is starting a list today (releasing 10 a day) of the 50 greatest tag teams in WWE history. But unlike most lists, this list contains teams based ONLY on what they did in the WWE. They reference Luger/Sting as an example of a team that won't appear on the list. Here are the first 10 for those who don't want to go through each page: 50. The Bushwhackers 49. The Mega Powers48. The Soul Patrol 47. Paul London & Brian Kendrick 46. The Headshrinkers 45. The Twin Towers 44. The Moondogs 43. Booker T & Goldust 42. The Killer Bees 41. The Steiners Apparently so.

I'm expecting the top five to feature the Harts, Bulldogs, E&C, Rockers and if they're being honest the New-age Outlaws - but I'm probably overlooking someone obvious (like The Conquistadors).

Kofi and CM Punk are destined for a top 10 finish.

I'm assuming number one is Epico and Primo. Nothing else would make sense.

My top 10 predictions (in no particular order) LOD, Hart Foundation, Demolition, Hardy's, Edge and Christian, Dudley's, DX, NAO, Wild Samoans, and The British Bulldogs
The top 3 for me are: 1. Demolition 2. Edge and Christian 3. Dudley Boys

My hope is there is a lack of bias. The most complaints they had were for the top 25 managers when they left out Jim Cornette and Paul Heyman. In recent years if I remember, they changed it up and added both men, but people were pissed. Even WWE members like Jim Ross and Howard Finkel didn't like what they saw.
To justify Londrick's position on the roster in comparison to the Killer Bees, the Bees were in a tag team division that was stacked, probably the best the tag team division ever was. I think most tag teams from that era should be on the list, just even based on how much competition they had and how they are remembered even today.
London and Kendrick were a great team, definitely a top team in WWE history, but they didn't have the competition the tag team champions had back then. Teams like the Hart Foundation, Demolition and The British Bulldogs should either top the list or be very high up just based on being champions in that era.

Who were the Soul Patrol? Managed by Slick, I assume.
Alongside names already mentioned (E&C, Hart Foundation, Dudleyz, Rockers), I hope the Quebecers, Strike Force, and LOD finish in the top 10.

Yeah but they had about 10 matches in that year if that. London and Kendrick are the 10th longest reigning tag team in history. They won both the WWE Tag Team Titles and the World Tag Team Titles. They were a team for 6 years. I'm not even their biggest fans but I just hate to see history ignored and individuals looked over on history reflective lists just because they left the company. That's all true, but they were such an afterthought at the time that it seemed so insignificant. It didn't really seem impressive at the time because they were so rarely featured. Not quite to the extent of Gillberberg's Light Heavyweight Championship reign, but similar in the sense that the reign looks much more impressive on paper than it did in reality.
