Some wrestling fans have forgotten Eddie Guerrero and Tajiri were once WWE Tag Team Champions. The partnership started when Los Guerreros pursued winning back the tag team titles they lost from Team Angle. But when Chavo injured himself in early 2003, Eddie was left on his own without a tag team partner.

At Judgment Day 2003, Eddie finally found a suitable replacement for Chavo, which ended up being Tajiri. Eddie and Tajiri became partners and won the Tag Team titles from Team Angle on the same night in a ladder match.

Eddie and Tajiri's run as tag team champions only lasted for a month as Eddie began displaying a selfish persona. When Tajiri accidentally bumped into Eddie's low rider, Eddie took it personally and attacked Tajiri after losing the tag team titles. Although Eddie turned heel and committed an awful act, the fans still cheered for him as they were expecting the heel turn to occur.
