Manager & Tag Team Rankings
Here's the rankings for the tag's and managers. If you have comments on them, please... Put them on the comments page! Also, just a note that I will put these rankings up on the main JTF!3K1 site by next month when the juniors/womens/feds/wrestlers are all done as well.
Oh, and lastly? Please be kind enough to click the ads on the right hand side? I do get some coin for every click, and I did make good on my promise here of delivering to you some top notch rankings... please? Pretty please?
Rank: #1
Team: The Privateers
Weeks: 61
Change: +2
Fed: UWF
Comments: The top tag team in UWF's has proven time and again that they deserve their titles. At Rise to Power, the Drakes have a good deal at stake against the Sons of Cacaphony - not just their World Tag Titles, but also their shares of ownership of the UWF franchise.
Rank: #2
Team: Epitome of Cool
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: RCW
Comments: One of the greatest tag teams EVER is back in full force and are the odds-on favorite to take the RCW tag team gold at Glory. Their brewing feud with Doc Holliday [and now Brent Maverick] looks to be forming into, one can hope, an EoC/Outlaws Tag Championship match for the next RCW pay-per-view.
Rank: #3
Team: Hands of Death
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: UWF
Comments: Many are already calling the Hands of Death/Prophets of Rage match at Rise to Power to be one of the bloodiest in UWF history. I wouldn't be surprised at all if that rings true. I like Annis & Caliban's odds in this fight... which may steal a part of the show.
Rank: #4
Team: The Amazing Romanis
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: UWF
Comments: The UWF NA Tag Champs are... Not on the Rise to Power card. Kind of disappointing, but don't fret! From their challenge, one can expect them to perform the clean-up crew duties after the Double Dog Collar Match.
Rank: #5
Team: The Cossacks
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: RCW
Comments: One of the many new teams on the block in RCW's revamped tag team scene. Orginal gimmick? Well... No, but there's nothing wrong with that as long as it's played out right and in this case, it is. Don't be surprised if the Ruskies take the title away from EoC's or the potential reformed Outlaws at Glory.
Honorable Mention: Totally Rad Connection [PCW], The Wild Cards [RCW], Team Canada [UWF, PCW], Dynasty [PPW], The Outlaws [RCW - THEY MUST REUNITE!]
Rank: #1
Name: Petr Ivanovich
Manages: The Cossacks
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: RCW
Comments: The spokesman for The Cossacks plays the role of the manager of old: speaks for his men, negotiates, and also gets in a cheap hit here & there but doesn't wrestle himself. Ahh... Smell that? It's called fresh air!
Rank: #2
Name: Sinful
Manages: Heavan Lee Mayfair
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: EPW
Comments: And on the valet side, you've got your beautiful, conniving witch... Sinful's a perfect fit for Mayfair and does more than the current typical valets.
Rank: #3
Name: Fudo Waru
Manages: Tommy Stephens
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: RCW
Comments: Continuing the 'legacy' [can you call it that?] of his brother Goku, Fudo Waru's brought a different style to Stephens to try to challenge the goofball. Hasn't really worked, but then again I doubt Fudo can perform miracles. But here again we see the traditional manager. Ahh...
Rank: #4
Name: Ibrahim Al-Kasseem
Manages: Abdul Oman Al Rippa
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: JJG
Comments: Hey! Look at that! Another "old style" manager! Sure, some may dismiss the character & his charge, Al Rippa, as just another set of foreign loud mouths, but I like them. I think Al-Kasseem does his duty and has a gift of inciting the crowd just right.
Rank: #5
Name: Darius Walker
Manages: Aries Priest
Weeks: New
Change: NR
Fed: PCW
Comments: Ok, if you haven't caught on by now, I'm a fan of the managers - people who do and add something to their charges. Walker here did just that - PCW TV Champ Priest can talk for himself, but the added dimension of Walker [think Jonathan H. Smith from PWR] just makes the duo even more infuriating.
Honorable Mention: ELK [RCW - Epitome of Cool], Mark Langseth [RCW - Luke Kinsey], Allison Ivey [UWF - The Youngbloods], Kari Stevens [UWF - Team Canada], Virginia St. Ursula [UWF - Michael Bonn]

Cool rankings though it certainly shows the lack of feds going... or did. It's picking up big time and should be interesting to see next time around.
You did have a couple smaller feds on there, so that's always neat

Tag teams are definately picking up. Big woot for Hands of Death.
What other top 5's could there be? Top five Jr's/Cruiserweights... Womens... Rookies/Newcomers maybe?

Well, top five juniors and women's are already in the rotation [those sets are slated in two weeks].
But for other misc rankings, yeah... Rookies, finishers, theme music, interviewers, most athletic, worst, top fedheads, shows, "writers" [I can mention them since they're staff]... endless possibilities!
