Interesting results. I think on paper when you compare the teams that MNM comes out on top, but Miz and Morrison had better chemistry and Morrison himself was a much better overall performer when he was teaming with the Miz. MNM worked well together too, but Miz and Morrison just seemed to click more.

When's the last time a new team debuted? I really don't feel like going back and checking, but it's probably the Usos. Unless you count the Shield. |

MNM had a good look and entrance but were kinda boring otherwise imo.
I vote Miz/Morrison for some scattered entertaining stuff. Would have voted them even if not for the Dirt Sheet.

Much as I enjoyed MNM, I will always prefer Mizorrison. They were my favorite tag team for almost their whole time together.

What, no option for the extremely short-lived Nitro and Dykstra? I enjoyed their catapult-elbow-springboard-elbow-over-knees tag combo. That's about it. Also, I feel Mizorrison clicked better because they were both ok on the mic. I mean, I genuinely can't remember any Joey Mercury promos bar the one after he smashed his face on a ladder. He should've been a bigger part of the SES though. |

When I think of MNM, I think of a great tag-team with a great tag-team finisher and a great manager.
When I think of Morrison and Miz, I think of those two guys that did the Dirt Sheet. Nothing wrong with that, I loved the Dirt Sheet, but I gotta go with MNM.

I honestly can't remember a single Eminem feud beyond Rey/Eddie (which wasn't even a feud as much as 1 match) and a bunch of Hardy matches without a storyline around them.

MNM and it's not even close.
I'm surprised anything involving the suck that is the Miz would be winning by such a huge margin. And I've never watched WWE's online web series or whatever aside from "Are You Serious", so I never saw the Dirt Sheet and it has no influence on my vote.
I remember plenty about MNM (not least of all their great ring entrances), but I have little recollection of Miz & Morrison, aside from arguments here over who would be the "Jannetty".

Miz and Morrison felt like a "thrown-together" tag team; they ended up being really good at it, but still.
MNM had the total "tag team" package, and were really good on top of it. Morrison was better with a mouthpiece (even though Melina wasn't *great* on the mic). Miz had that and was part of the reason they worked well together, but I kind of always thought their run was just setting up the eventual split and feud (which wound up being good but not as good as it could have been).
I gave the edge to MNM for the "classic" tag team style, even though one could argue that Miz and Morrison ultimately had a better run.
Good question, I'm surprised it isn't more evenly split, although MNM's run feel like it was ages ago now that all 3 are gone.

LOL I voted Miz/Morrison, but yeah...I feel dirty about it. MNM and it's not even close. I'm surprised anything involving the suck that is the Miz would be winning by such a huge margin. And I've never watched WWE's online web series or whatever aside from "Are You Serious", so I never saw the Dirt Sheet and it has no influence on my vote. I remember plenty about MNM (not least of all their great ring entrances), but I have little recollection of Miz & Morrison, aside from arguments here over who would be the "Jannetty". I thought they had a good combo as far as personalities go, whereas MNM felt more like a launching ground for Nitro, since Mercury wasn't nearly as praised on commentary, even though he was probably a little more solid than Nitro at the time. I guess with Morrison and Miz, the emphasis of praising one over the other was more forgivable since they were complete contrasts of one another, although it always pissed me off that Morrison would almost always take the loss and Miz would almost always get the win. After the break up, they completely missed out on having Morrison be the one to move up the card, mic skills be damned, he was fairly over. |

Miz and Morrison by a mile. Liked MNM and all, but Miz and Morrison played more to each other's strengths and both guys stood out quite a bit and still had solo personalities and identifying characteristics, while with MNM Mercury was pretty much entirely incidental to Morrison and Melina and could have been replaced with anybody. Plus I don't particularly like Melina, and I can think of a lot more great Miz & Morrison matches than great MNM ones. Though that's mostly on Morrison in both teams' cases so it's more down to him having improved than saying Miz is better in the ring than Mercury. What, no option for the extremely short-lived Nitro and Dykstra? Or for that matter that time Nitro and Miz teamed up in one of the tag team battle royals after Mania 23. |

Miz and Morrison by a lot. MNM had charismatic mannerisms, and worked well as a team, but I always found them to be pretty boring. I think I'm actually giving them a worse grade for being more of a "team", in fact. Melina had an individual personality, but Nitro and Mercury didn't.
Whereas Miz and Morrison really played off of each other well, because they started out as individuals. They had separate personalities that made them more interesting as a team.

Good question, I'm surprised it isn't more evenly split, although MNM's run feel like it was ages ago now that all 3 are gone. I'm not. The Dirt Sheet is hugely popular on here, and always was. If that was all Miz and Morrison did, they'd probably be winning this poll by a similar margin. Yeah, In-Crowd was really popular on here. I really don't know why they got so much love and MNM didn't, because MNM had plenty of good matches and they were an anchor on Smackdown when it was still a really good show (05/06). MNM didn't have a great stable of teams to work with, but there hasn't been a "team with manager" since that's nearly as good as MNM was. |

Miz and Morrison for me. Just a great tag team, they always had great matches, great personalities and I loved the Dirt Sheet.

The memory of this forum at large is really clouded by their dislike for the Miz.
Before the break-up, whenever Morrison and Miz faced each other in a one-off, Morrison was always the one who came out on top. Furthermore, it was usually Morrison who got the winning pin, and Miz who took the fall (case in point, Miz being in the ECW Battle Royale at WM24 while John Morrison was in Money in the Bank).
I should know this, because I followed this team REALLY heavily and were the main reason I watched ECW.

Other: Melina and Maryse ;-)  French Salsa beats all.  I liked MNM for a litany of reasons. Good matches, great valet with a very sexy entrance. Not to mention, I have a soft spot for "tag team" tag teams; guys that come in together, have tag team moves, the whole shebang. However, The In-Crowd wins it for me, and for much more than the Dirt Sheet. Separately, I just liked Morrison more than I liked Nitro as a character, and I'm a big Mizfit. Together, though, they clicked in a way, dare I say, was better than MNM! They were so fun as a tag team to me, both segments and matches. Por Ejemplo. |
