On the March 19, 2001, episode of RAW is WAR, the tag team titles would change hands twice and all three of the greatest teams of the decade would be involved. First, Edge and Christian would beat the Hardy Boyz to win the gold when a debuting Rhyno speared Jeff Hardy out of his boots.

The former ECW Champion – a real life friend of Edge and Christian – would go on to hold multiple titles in the WWE including the United States, Hardcore and Tag team titles.

The same night, E&C would put their newly won tag team titles on the line against Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley only to see karma strike them when a debuting Spike Dudley interfered in the match. Spike would deliver the Dudley Dog to Christian enabling the Dudleys to win the titles.
