Who is the greatest Tag Team of all time?

The Fabulous Freebirds

The first team to innovate three-man tag teams (hence the Freebird Rule), the Fabulous Freebirds were often heels in spite of the fact they were proud southerners wrestling in the south. They appeared in the movie Highlander in the opening scene and were the first wrestling act to write their own theme music.
