JJMc 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2003 Not what you think. I'm not referring to the NWA/WCW "Unified" Tag Titles from '93. I was just watching Superbrawl VIII, and there was a Tag Title match between the Steiners and the Outsiders. It is announced as being for the Unifed Tag Team Title, and the Steiners come out with two sets of belts. One is the classic WCW Tag Team Title, and the other is the belts that debuted in '97 (?) which I believe was some sort of NWO angle. My question is, how could you call them "Unified" when one set of belts was just an NWO knockoff? Maybe I'm forgetting something, I honestly don't know. Can someone help me out here? Thanks-JM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Notorious CRD Report post Posted September 15, 2003 IIRC, the Miracle Violence Connection (AKA Doc and Gordy) unified the titles by winning both sets. After that, the titles were always defended simultaneously, hence they became the Unified Tag Team titles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted September 15, 2003 Umm, JM said in the first line of his post that he wasn't referring to the 1993 titles, otherwise you'd be correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
