It's a tie! Here's how this is going to work:
The poll will be reopened, and the time limit will be cut in half.
With the recent Wikipedia Royal Rumble, and with inspiration from another forum, I am wondering if this will work here. So I'm going to try it out and see how it goes.
Just note that you might see some very strange pairings, more then likely people you don't know, as I'm going by whatever shows up by a random search of millions of articles. I'll try not to have anybody that breaks any rules though, within the political/religion area, so I'll be sure to be careful as to who I put in here.
So with that said, the rules are simple:
Two teams enter to start off the match.
Each match will last 24 hours, and you the FAN's, will vote for which team you'd like to move on.
The winners stay, the losers go, and another team of two will enter the match.
If a team win 3 matches in a row, they are automatically taken into the Final Battle. (NOTE: For the first match, you'll also vote for how many matches a team should win to become a part of the Final Battle.)
This process continues until 10 teams are part of the Final Battle, and the last team standing, is declared the first ever FAN Random Wikipedia Tag Team Champions!
Here are the winners from the last round:
Their partner:
They must win two more matches to make it to the finals.

"Freak Me" is an R&B ballad recorded by Atlanta, Georgia-based vocal quintet Silk in 1992. It was co-written and co-produced by Keith Sweat, for whom Silk was a touring opening act. Sweat also performed this on his 2003 Live Album.
