[9.0] "An utterly awesome meat & potatoes tag team whom are bound to make any tag division they join better. Profoundly impressive physiques, feats of strength off the charts, can do excellent mic work, & generally speaking, I can't remember a time that I've been unhappy to see FTR on my TV. Really one of the best in contemporary society, hopefully we can stick a belt on both or either of them sometime soon. I am so stoked for FTR vs. Edge & Christian that it's kind of unreal."
[10.0] "FTR have been a top 3 tag teams in the world for like a decade and they just got even better with their last heel turn. Usually heels have a hard time keeping themselves entertaining while being the villains, FTR have mastered that."
[10.0] "For my money the pinnacle of the NXT Black and Gold era. They could match the most flamboyant tag teams of the era for workrate but their adoption of classic early Steiner brothers mat fundamentals and truly aggressive-looking offense constantly forced other teams to work smarter and not just harder. Their feuds with American Alpha and DIY are in the in-ring peak of NXT and I think the brand has been less interesting with them gone."
[9.0] "In an age when tag wrestling, & especially established tag teams is mostly a relic of the past, FTR is a great linchpin to any tag division. They are both solid in the ring & strive to make tag wrestling important. Some of their best matches are against the likes of American Alpha, DIY, & The Briscoes. They have worked in both WWE & AEW, so they have a long record of working with many different teams throughout their career."
[8.0] "While teams like Enzo & Cass shouted catchphrases and played cosplay wrestling, The Revival wrestled. Dash and Dawson (now Dax and Cash of FTR) brought a no-frills, old-school mentality back to a landscape drowning in superkicks and dives. Their philosophy? "No flips, just fists." And they meant it. Technical precision, airtight psychology, crisp double teams -- these guys didn't just work matches, they crafted masterpieces. From their legendary trilogy with DIY in NXT to war-after-war with teams like American Alpha, The Usos, and later The Briscoes, they consistently proved that tag wrestling isn't filler -- it's main event caliber when done right. Every match told a story, every finish had weight, and every beat-down felt earned, not spammed. Offscreen, FTR have become locker room leaders, advocates for tag team prestige, and pros who want to build the business, not just coast on merch sales and mic time. They don't chase clout -- they chase greatness. And more often than not, they catch it."
[10.0] "When they are at their best, FTR is easily the best tag team on the planet. In AEW sometimes they seem a bit directionless, but they also quickly find their footing again."
[9.0] "How did WWE fuck them over so bad? These guys had great matches in NXT & are currently having great tag matches in ROH an AEW. Vince screwed them over cause he only saw them as comedic talent instead of a legit tag team."
[10.0] "One of the best tag teams in the world for sure. When I first saw them in WWE in 2016, I thought they were unique with their old school style, storytelling and psychology. I loved their battles with American Alpha and DIY. And the Toronto match was one of the best tag team matches I have ever seen. After joining AEW, they continued to prove their talents. The triology with Briscoes and other matches with Juice/White and Aussie Open solidifies their world class status as a tag team. They were truly a joy to watch."
[10.0] "One of My Favorite Tag Team of All Time. I Love their hard hitting old school style it's a breath of fresh air to see in todays world of professional wrestling and something that were desperately missing. Dax and Cash have won gold all over the world and have been top guys at every company they have been at, Like WWE, AEW, NJPW & ROH Their matches against DIY, American Alpha, The Young Bucks, Aussie Open, Bullet Club Gold & The Briscoes are some of the Best Matches of all time and will be talked about forever. FTR are a true pleasure to watch, Gonna be a sad day when they hang it up."
[9.0] "One my favorite tag teams, both guys are amazing wrestlers by themselves but together they get the best out of each other. However, there act has gotten incredibly stale and that's been a theme with them, they wait way too long to change their act, they stay the same for way too long. I also feel like there is not much left for them in AEW. Overall, until they can get back on track I will keep them 9, they are 10 when they are on."
[10.0] "One of the best tag teams in the world without a doubt. They are truly incredible and always manage to provide great performances. In WWE they were not valued enough, while in AEW they are getting the respect they deserve. They have had great matches and have won titles everywhere, they are incredible."
[7.0] "Regardless of the promotion, FTR, is a weird tag team for me. I don't actually really enjoy their tag team style, which might shock a lot of people, hence their incredibly high rating. They don't have a cool representation, and they are okay on the promos, but good for them for having the interest of a lot of other fans."
[8.0] "These guys are really quite good- many years of impressive matches in their catalog. They're adaptable to a variety of different tag styles, while maintaining their old school approach to things. Their matches with the Briscoes are the pinnacle achievement of their career, absolutely required viewing for any wrestling fan of any stripe, in my opinion at least. They're definitely lacking on the mic, but can make things work with the right opponents. Not much of a gimmick either, so they lose some points there for blandness. A in the ring, C on the mic, C for look/gimmick. I don't think you can call them the best team of all time, but they definitely have a long list of great matches to their name."
[4.0] "Generally overrated in the ring, and absolutely dreadful on the mic and in terms of personality. Playing up to the "old school" image doesn't automatically make them great, it just makes them flat characters whose entire personality is "We are wrestlers", which isn't really enough. The five hundred character limit as a penalty for having a dissenting opinion, by the way, is absolutely ridiculous. It doesn't take five hundred characters to explain why these guys are severely overrated in general."
[10.0] "Excellent throwback tag teams, both amazing individual workers too. They can have a classic with literally anyone, special shout out to their best feud; their trilogy with the Briscoes."
[10.0] "FTR ist für mich das beste Tag Team aktuell. Ich kenne sie nur durch ihre Zeit bei AEW und NJPW sowie AAA, dort haben sie mich jedoch stark überzeugt. Auch als Einzel wrestler ist vor allem DAX sehr stark. Sie hatten unvergessliche schlachten gegen die Bucks und die Briscos. [10] Punkte"
[10.0] "One of my favorite tag team ever. Bad boys kickasser, they have an awesome alchemy. They won a lot in the years, make tributes for old school tag team. The rivalry with Briscoes it's legendary. Simply awesome."
[10.0] "One of the best tag teams in the world today. They are such good technical wrestlers that work well together and work well with their opponents. They've had great tag matches with teams like BCC, D.I.Y, and The Young Bucks. Overall amazing tag team."
[10.0] "FTR are TOP GUYS and one of the greatest tag teams ever. Their knowledge of tag team wreslting is very high level. Their chemistry is super good. They're like well oiled machines. They can have great matches with any tag team from any era of wrestling. The old school mentality in the modern era they still make it work."
[8.0] "They have good to great matches with many different teams, and remain consistently over with the live crowds. Not much to complain about bell to bell. Promo and character work is solid but repetitive at this point, would like to see something fresh like a truly nasty heel turn."
[7.0] "FTR are skilled in-workers of the "allrounder" style. However, they are poor on the mic, and their gimmick is nostalgia for an era of wrestling that they are too young to remember. They are naturally an upper-midcard heel tag team: the should hold a championship from time to time, but they don't need to hold 4 championships at once. In 2022, they were overly protected in AEW, not losing a match to the Acclaimed while the Acclaimed were AEW champions, despite a match being teased. Maybe that was bad booking: the titles of the separate brands shouldn't merge, in the same way that the World champion shouldn't challenge secondary champions. This cheapened the tag team titles, as the implied narrative was basically that FTR was the deserving tag team, but the Acclaimed were selling edgy t-shirts and overpriced foam fingers."
[10.0] "One of the greatest tag teams of the modern era. Dax and Cash have tremendous chemistry and work perfectly as a unit. Their offense, their looks and their presention is heavily inspired by some incredible tag teams back in the 80s/90s like the Harts or Tully Blanchard and Arn Anderson but they are not any rip-offs of old legends, they are they're own thing and their special in their own way. Every match they have is must-watch for me. Their trilogy with the Briscoes is sublime and their tag matches with the Bucks and Bullet Club Gold are all incredible. In NXT they did some awesome work with DIY and The American Alpha as the Revival but once they moved to the main roster, they got lost in the shuffle. Luckly, in 2020 they came to AEW and that saved their carrers as they were given the spotlight they deserved. They work very well both as heels and babyfaces, their shenanigans as heels were awesome to watch and their connection with the crowd as babyfaces in unmatched. They also work very well in multi-men situations, like trios or eight-man matches, and in singles competition, especially Dax who had an impressive streak of great matches in 2022. For me, they set the standard for today's tag team wrestling and they dominated this division since 2022."
"FTR have great chemistry, but I personally find them to be thoroughly uninteresting, if not grating. Despite their ability to have good to great tag matches, I dont feel like Ive ever truly been invested in anything Dax or Cash have done. The tribute act card is used to belittle teams who take clear influence, but surprisingly it doesnt seem to be used against FTR despite them possibly being the most derivative. (6/10)"
"Other than any gun-related violence in their personal lives, the main crime of these two men is that theyre extremely boring. They have exactly zero personality. Every single promo of theirs is the same. They constantly break kayfabe and whine about the booking on social media when theyre unhappy so they can weaponize their fans. People keep saying their wrestling is good but I just dont see it. They couldnt carry a storyline to save their lives. Their title reign in 2023 was extremely disappointed: how can your entire character revolve around being the best and being a good fighter and whatever but then refuse to defend your titles for a full month? AEW used to have a great tag division and the tag belts used to mean something before they got the belts, had them throughout a meaningless reign, and then lost them in a squash match to a non-tag team."
[10.0] "One of the best tag teams in the world in the last several years. Those guys are truly students of the game, and have an awesome old-school style. They deliver incredibly in the ring and in the microphone, and pass a lot of credibility. The Top Guys are awesome, a gift to wrestling."
[10.0] "Where can I start with FTR. They are my favourite tag team and consistently have great match after great match. The best tag team in the world in my opinion. They continually never fail to be good wrestler. Charisma wise they are good, although they are obviously no MJF, Dax and Cash can still talk well on the mic. Some of my favourite matches are the matches vs The Briscoes, vs DIY, vs The Young bucks and vs Jay white and Juice Robinson however I could go on. If I made a list of my favourite tag matches 15 of them would include FTR."
"Been a fan of these guys since the revival nxt days when they were putting on banger after banger, i love the push aew has given them but still belive they are under utilized in aew and just thrown into random run ins and random 6 man tags anymore really hoping for a wwe return under trips regime in the near future, but other then that id have to say a top 10 tag team of all time with alot of career left and no telling how well they will do as singles stars."
[9.0] "These guys carry on their backs the legacies and styles of every massively popular and talented tag team of the bygone era to the heights those teams always deserved. The Road Warriors (Legion of Doom) always deserved more. The Brain Busters always deserved more, the Wild Samoans, the british buldogs, every tag team Vince Mcmahon ruined or downplayed, FTR managed to survive his attempts to do the same to them and easily become the best team of their era and will be remembered in the same breaths of the Hart Foundation, The Hardyz and The Dudleys to name a few. Good on them to never give up and become the top guys they were determined to be."
[6.0] "FTR -- the current consensus for "Best Tag Team in the World". Their whole gimmick is that they're throwbacks to the 80s style of "tough, fight-based wrestling", back when matches were about beating your opponent to a pulp instead of seeing how many flips you could hit. I can appreciate how unique they feel in today's action-obsessed wrestling climate, but I definitely think their gimmick is vastly overrated, as are literally all their matches. Firstly, there's only so far you can get with "we wrestle matches with really good technique" as your character. I definitely enjoy the plain aggression, physicality, and tag-team strategy they show, but whenever they do that it always feels more like they're just mechanically checking off a list of 'good-match' requirements rather than actually, directly 'exciting' me, so I "appreciate" their work much more so than I actually "enjoy" it. In their obsession with being 'serious', FTR have unfortunately completely avoided the important 'flashy' and 'creative' parts that can make wrestling so exciting and compelling. Basically, it wouldn't hurt Cash and (much more so) Dax to try implement a bit more of a 'modern' twist to their moves, either in terms of creativity or impact/'danger factor', rather than only relying on safe and uninspired moves as they currently do. They can definitely work the 'modern style' of wrestling in regards to a quick pace with lots of big spots and complex sequences, but I've never found those to be especially exciting because they often ring hollow by only ever featuring such basic moves. Another issue with FTR is that their "tough guy" personas are often quite see-through. This is most obvious with Dax, who clearly tries way too hard to look intimidating and pissed-off with his facial expressions. He also just loves to talk in his many whiney-toned promos about how hard-done-by he is, which further exposes how 'soft' he really is. Cash is actually the far better worker of the team, since he's the one that will genuinely impress me with the occasionally reckless ways he'll blitz an opponent, plus his general technique seems far more polished than Dax's AND he doesn't waste time pretending to be a 'badass' like Dax does. On the other hand, Cash's attitude might actually be too much the opposite of Dax's, since he's far more reserved to the point that I'm not sure I can specifically say he has much of a real 'character'. He can sometimes be decently sympathetic, but he often seems more just "along for the ride" and happy for Dax to take centre stage when it comes to them highlight their character work. In an ideal promotion, FTR would be booked as the dominant and hardened heels, which would then justify their lack of appealing characters and their naturally less exciting offence, and would also then enhance the characters and offence of their babyface opponents by contrast. As they are, FTR are perfectly good but not nearly as compelling or exciting as they're touted to be."
[10.0] "One of the best tag team of the last two decades. Everything they do mean something when they are between the ropes. It is incredible that those two weren't even a tag team 10 years ago and become such a great team from being randomly paired in NXT. The old school touch gives them something that stands out, especially in this generation where everybody does 300 flips and tons of useless footwork. They are the definition of the less the better, just like Gunther. They are also good with a mic and have a great look that fit them perfectly."
[9.0] "These Guys have solidified themselves as the best Tag Team of the Modern Era, Their feuds and matches with Teams such as DIY, American Alpha, The Briscoes, Young Bucks and their Classic matches with Bullet Club Gold, Dax himself proving himself to be a fantastic Singles Star, But man these guys can wrestle and talk and just show that Tag Team wrestling in the modern Era is still alive and kicking and It sucks that according to them they plan to wrestle only for like four more years."
[9.0] "Great throwback team. As singles wrestlers neither guy stands out that much but better as a duo for sure. Old school team with traditional tag team rules. Were great in NXT and are very good in AEW now. Main roster WWE just seems like a bad fit for their act."
[10.0] "FTR is a stunning example of the perfect team that doesn't need exciting moves and somersault variations in their arsenal to be memorable. I really love their old school style and following the traditions of tag team wrestling. Cash and Dax have been big names in the NXT and to a lesser extent in the main roster, where they nevertheless collected a full set of belts, and they opened up in a new way in the pandemic era when they made their debut in All Elite Wrestling. Charismatic masters of their craft who are comfortable both as heels or as faces who have had a series of memorable matches, including a trilogy with the Briscoe Brothers, which can rightly be considered a modern classic of tag team wrestling."
[10.0] "Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler are nothing short of tag team professional wrestling perfection. One of the best tag teams of the 2010s and easily the best team of the new decade. Their body of work speaks for itself, classics with the Young Bucks, Aussie Open, and their immortal trilogy with Briscoe Brothers. Not to mention the crowd goes nuts whenever their music hits, that is a hallmark of an all time tag team."
[10.0] "I dunno if they'll able to recapture the consistent greatness they had as a tag team in 2022, but in that year alone they cemented themselves as one of the best tag teams of the 21st century. It takes 2 (or really four) to tango in tag team wrestling but FTR as the guiding hand has made them must watch television, a list of great matches in multiple promotions, which involved potentially the most important tag team feud in the last 20 years."
[8.0] "Can have top level matches with the right opponents, such as the Briscoes and Aussie Open. They stay over with the crowd, and remain a popular and respected tag team. Not afraid to grind, or beat up their bodies for a good show. As old school heels, I can get into their work. As faces, I personally find them uninspired. They can sometimes struggle with adapting to differing styles, such as their matches in AAA."
[10.0] "All-time favorite tag team. I've enjoyed their current face run, but their heel work is what really drew me in dating back to their days in NXT as The Revival."
[3.0] "Not into them. Sorry. They talk about doing proper tag team wrestling and then use all the old heel tricks in the book. It might be a clever shout out to the past, but I don't really care about the overacting and tag ropes and old spots. Also not a fan of their whiny promos. Fine guys I'm sure, but not the tag wrestling I enjoy."
[10.0] "I've been on board with FTR ever since they began teaming in NXT, and seeing how they've grown since then is beautiful. I loved their reigns in WWE, but as time went on, it was clear that the company wasn't working for these guys. All the teams there didn't have chemistry for any good matches with boys like Dax and Cash. When they got to AEW, I knew it would be a wild ride. In 2020, their match at Full Gear with the Young Bucks was one of the best matches I've seen by both teams. 2022 was a phenomenal year for FTR, not only because of the titles but because of the INSANE trilogy with the Briscoes, as well as the match with Aussie Open. FTR is too good to be ignored, and I'll adore them as long as I live."
[10.0] "A flawless year for FTR. They collected three of the four most important titles in the world that were available to them. They raise the prestige of the team division due to such 5-Star confrontations with Briscoe Brothers, Aussie Open, Young Bucks and many other opponents. It's great when we can look at top-tier teams around the world and they will always surprise and conquer our hearts. 2022 is the year of FTR and they deservedly go to the status of the best team in the world due to their perseverance and their unique love for this craft. Fight forever and God bless you!"
[10.0] "One of the best tag teams of all time. They can get a great match out of just about anybody, they're classic workers who appeal to both the fans of modern and classic wrestling."
[10.0] "Best tag team in the world right now without conversation. And one of the greatest tag team in the history. They do not have any bad match. They have pretty good moveset. FTR is a real tag team unlike most tag teams in the world right now. They always they give their %100 in the ring. They deserves AEW world tag team championship too."
[9.0] "The best modern American Tag Team in the ring hands down. Mixing old school psychology and match-building with modern moves and tag team combinations. What's holding them back is that well, neither of them can really cut a promo, and they can sometimes fall victim to the trap of making tributes to their favorite wrestlers at innapropriate times."
[10.0] "FTR sind als Foto im Duden neben dem Begriff Tag Team Wrestling abgebildet. Jeder Auftritt von Cash und Dax ist eine magische Reise zurück in die guten alten Zeiten, als Teams wie die Horsemen/Brain Busters, die Hart Foundation, die British Bulldogs oder die Rock'n'Roll und Midnight Expresses die Tag Team-Szene beherrschten. Allein schon eine Abwandlung des Themes der Letztgenannten zu verwenden ist ein nostalgischer Geniestreich. Im Gegensatz zu The New Day, The Usos und The Street Profits oder noch weniger gegenüber ihren AEW-Kollegen wie The Young Bucks oder den Lucha Brothers mag bei FTR vielleicht nicht jede Aktion wie ein spektakuläres Feuerwerk aussehen. Aber das Duo hat die Kunst der Tag Team-Disziplin komplett verinnerlicht und perfektioniert. Statt Flips und Dives wird der Gegner isoliert und bekommt im schnellen Wechsel harte, zermürbende und vor allem zielstrebige Aktionen verpasst. Ein Traum für Teamkampf-Liebhaber wie mich. Titan muss verrückt gewesen sein, die beiden zu vergraulen, sie waren perfekt für die Liga. Aber das Pech der McMahon-Sippe ist das Glück von AEW und aller anderen Ligen, die sich nun an Auftritten des vielleicht besten Tag Teams dieser Zeit ergötzen dürfen. Weniger als eine 10 ist hier Frevel."
[10.0] "The perfect modern day REAL tag team. They mix the old school tag wrasslin' with modern day suspense and thrill. Just a fantastic likable tag team, face or heel."
[10.0] "one of the greatest tag teams of the modern era. two guys that just put on classics. fantastic in ring workers. 10/10 tag team. collecting belts everywhere they go. they truly are living legends."
"Wish I got their appeal more. They just are not interesting enough for me, as characters or in the ring. Can have a good match once in a while against the right opponent but need aren't worth investing much in as weekly tv characters."
[10.0] "Bei FTR habe ich nix zu kritisieren. Tag Team Gold Collector sind sie aktuell drei verschiedene Tag Team Gürtel haben sie, ihre Midnight Express Hommage im Theme ist großartig. Dash & Scott sind echte Oldschool Wrestler."
[4.0] "Great in the ring, but to me, they are lacking charisma.They understand each other very well and have very good moveset, but I'm not enjoying their multi champs run. Character wise, they are just bland and there is something that does not connect with me."
[10.0] "In meinen Augen derzeit das beste Tag Team der Welt. Mit ihrem Anspruch Tag Team Wrestling wieder voran zu bringen und selbst die besten darin zu sein, haben die beiden einen riesigen Hype erzeugt und zeigen starke Matches am Fließband. Angefangen bei NXT fand ich sie anfangs total unscheinbar und dachte erst irgendein random Team hat die Title gewonnen, jedoch haben mich die beiden schnell einen besseren belehrt und gehörten schon bei NXT zu den absoluten Highlights. Toller Oldschool-Approach mit zahlreichen Callbacks an frühere Legenden."
[10.0] "Das beste Tag Team der Welt. Unfassbar gute Worker die kein Spotty-Wrestling benötigen um 5-Sterne Matches zu kreieren. Potenzial: 10x AEW World Tag Team Champions - 2000 Tage insgesamt - Main Event"
[10.0] "Mit denn Young Bucks das aktuell beste Tag Team, wenn nicht sogar davor. Mit denn Bucks, Briscoes, Lucha Bros, als Revival bei NXT gegen DIY? .mit so vielen geniale Matches. Und sogar am Mikrofon hat vorallem Dax ist drauf. Was anderes als 10 kann ich da nicht geben"
[10.0] "There's no denying it, FTR literally is one of the best Tag Teams in the history of all professional wrestling. These guys are complete as a team, they have an insane chemistry and know damn well how to tell a story and to keep fans involved in absolutely anything they do. I really hope they never separate and keep on fighting for many years, they are just perfect and always deliver a masterpiece."
[10.0] "I was on a break from Wrestling while the Revival was in NXT, and wasn't particularly impressed by their WWE run. The last few months in AEW, however, has ably shown them to be among the very best tag teams of all time, able to work as heel or baby face, in various styles of match, and able to elevate lesser teams, while putting on amazing matches with teams of equivalent (or near-equivalent) talent."
[10.0] "There are very few people in the modern age of wrestling who can I honestly say they are a pleasure to watch perform. FTR (formerly The Revival) are one of them. Probably the only tag team on a major stage nowadays who actually works tag team matches using TAG TEAM psychology, trying everything in their book to corner one of the opponents and make it 2-on-1 in their advantage as much as possible. It ain't really rocket science. These guys do it well!"
[10.0] "Absolutely a well-oiled machine. A good chemistry between old-school technical and old-school brawling/striking styles. Great as solo players even better when they are a tag team. One of the finest teams in pro wrestling TODAY."
[9.0] "unironically one of the best tag teams of the modern era. their style of 80s southern brawling is so good. and their match with the briscoes is one of my favourites."
[10.0] "I've long considered FTR to be one of my favorite tag teams but after their recent run of fantastic matches against the Bucks, Briscoes, and Punk/Moxley have solidified them as my favorite team going right now, and possibly my favorite team of all time. They almost single-handedly kept tag wrestling alive in WWE and since leaving the Fed have produced banger after banger every time they step foot in the ring."
[4.0] "[Update from 6.0 to 4.0] The only one they markout more for than Bret is themselves. They're really nothing special and yet here they are acting like they're the second coming of the Four Horsemen and the AWA/NWA glory days. Nah, this ain't it. [Old Review]: Mostly 10 and 9 ratings' Huh. Honestly, I've always found FTR to be pretty boring. They can have the occasional match that is impressive, but MAN are they inconsistent. On one night you can have them in fantastic matches with the Young Bucks to either mediocre or downright terrible matches with PnP. They're a cosplay of old school tag teams without any of the kick or it factor. Their matches aren't really memorable since after a while they tend to blend together. They're decent, but I am not a fan."
[10.0] "They are the best tag team currently active in my book. Versatile, incredible storytelling, smooth in the ring and fitting gimmick. Can't ask for more when it comes to a 10/10 tag team. Truly living legends."
[10.0] "It is seen and proven that they do not serve as singles competitors, they are according to many wrestling sources the best tag team today, Dax Harwood has always been a better wrestler than Cash Wheeler. They have a very classic and at the same time modern style of wrestling which enters the eyes very well and are very entertaining to watch. Currently accompanied by Tully Blanchard, he gives them a plus in everything."
[8.0] "Two guys who know what their characters are and how to deliver it well. They bring high impact matches to the fans and their grounded approach offers a perfect balance to the matches. When every tag team focuses on high flying, you need a team who can bring it back down to earth and add a bit of fight to proceedings. They remind me almost a little bit of the role The Briscoes played in their series of trilogies against The Young Bucks and World's Greatest Tag Team. They are excellent tag team wrestlers who offer something different in the modern landscape."
[10.0] "Probably the best tag team in the world right now. They constantly deliver great matches and I'm sure they can have good matches with just about anyone. Ring generals."
[10.0] "Right now the best tag team in the world for my money. I honestly can't think of a single other tag team in any era that has put on two five star classics within five days of each other, it's honestly kind of unreal. The amount of sheer work these two put into making each and every single one of their matches not only technically sound but emotionally resonant is peak of peak quality."
[10.0] "One of the best teams in the world. They are purists with a very orthodox style of wrestling which I loved. In a time when flashiness is preferred over substance, FTR helps in reminds us of the subtle greatness of professional wrestling."
[5.0] "They're a fine team, really, but I don't know why I'm supposed to go gaga over them distracting the ref and cutting off the ring while I'm supposed to scold other teams for high spots and double teams. Again, they're fine, but I really don't see how their output matches up against a lot of the tag teams of their era on the indies."
[10.0] "One of the best, if not the best tag team in wrestling today. Every FTR match is a must-watch, even if it's a squash. If I was a tag wrestler I would want to work with FTR every week."
[10.0] "In an era where fans and tag team wrestlers have forgotten how a tag team match worked, these two still give me hope. Basic tag team stuff like cutting the ring in half, distracting the ref as to prevent the babyface from getting in which is the real art of tag team wrestling is only really done by FTR at this point and they do an amazing job at it. They are the only ones really who wrestle "Tag Team" matches and can tell a story. I hate the modern tag team wrestling but I could watch FTR matches any day and not be disappointed. Definitely THE Tag Team of the decade and I think they've earned their right to be called as one of the best tag teams of all time."
[10.0] "In my opinion the greatest tag team in the world today, their list of standout matches within the past 5 years is immense and they're showing no signs of slowing down, in fact they've been shining more than ever in AEW. Whilst teams like American Alpha and DIY were considered by many to be better back in their NXT days, FTR have outlasted them all, continuing to improve and consistently putting out some of the best tag team matches across the globe. They've already reached legendary status, yet I don't see them calling it quits anytime soon."
[10.0] "Many things make up a great tag team, and I think FTR/The Revival excel at every one of them. The can speed it up, tell a story, get great heat, but also make the fans respect them. Never a bad match and always a treat to watch. If there was one criticism it would be they should talk more during their matches to show their true personalities, like in their promos."
[8.0] "It took a while for them to grow on me, but they did. What I like most about FTR is their ability to work an old school style that meshes well with any opponent they work with. At times they need strong opponents to really shine-- like any tag team-- but when that happens they pull out top-tier matches. They really work best with teams that are similar to them (their feud with Santana and Ortiz in AEW was simply fantastic, and the best work they've done in the promotion IMO)."
[10.0] "Wherever these guys wrestle, they immediately establish themselves as one of the top tag teams in the division. They're one of the best tag teams, if not the best, in wrestling today."
[9.0] "Arguably the best tag team in professional wrestling today. They were excellent in NXT, produced some great matches in WWE, and have already made their mark in AEW. Memorable matches and rivalries with American Alpha, DIY, The New Day, SCU, The Undisputed ERA, and The Young Bucks show just how versatile this team is. Fantastic storytellers who make up for whatever they may lack in flash with technical prowess, pacing, and strategy. All the tools to reach that 10/10 level."
[10.0] "The absolute best tag team on the planet currently. FTR brought the classic tag team aura of the old days to life in the modern era where such things rarely exist anymore. A truly perfect team that'll end up as the greatest tag team of the decade."
[10.0] "I don't care about FTR. I don't care about the main roster version of the Revival. This rating is solely for the NXT version, which remains my favorite tag team of the century, even though their time there ended years ago."
[10.0] "One of the best Tag Teams of all-time. WWE has blood on their hands, they should have a thousands Tag Titles reigns... Hope AEW will put them on top lot of times."
[9.0] "Great tag team. Criminally overlooked in WWE main roster. Had some of the best tag matches in the World in 2016 vs DIY on NXT. Had a great 2020 in AEW have lost a lot of momentum since losing the titles however."
[6.0] "they are good team and thats it for me they are not even close to be best tag team in the world in my opinion they are kinda boring and not that good of a team"
[10.0] "One of the most watchable tag teams in years for me, as half a year after their arrival in AEW and takeover of the tag team division (pun intended), I have yet to see a match where their work is less than entertaining. The add a grounded sense of realism to their work, while being able to do that much more. That fact, that they can do more when needed, but make the " basic stuff" exciting to watch regardless, is probably why I love their work so much. Because that's really hard to do and Cash and Dax have seemingly perfected it."
[10.0] "My wishes have been granted, and WWE have been booking The Revival as a significantly stronger team since they were drafted to SmackDown. They already have one SmackDown tag title reign under them. They always seem to be in the main event scene, which is fantastic for a team that performs like they do. Dash and Scott just seem to have it put together when it comes to tag team wrestling, and I would even put them up there in terms of skill with the Hardys, The Bucks, and The Undisputed Era. A great team all around."
[10.0] "Best tag team in WWE's main roster today. Scott and Dash is so talented in the ring, on the mic, they're very charismatic. I hope some day WWE take them seriously and gave a solid push, but not just a title-reign for title-reign."
[5.0] "The Revival just doesn't do it for me. If i was judging based on their NXT work alone i would say they're more of a 7, but they've had more then enough time on the main roster to do something special and they haven't. Seriously, what is one amazing thing they have done in their time on RAW? I understand how bad their booking has been, but they're a part of the problem. Anyone who agrees to do such humiliating things to themselves obviously doesn't care. Their old school tag team dynamic is pretty fun and they have a good chemistry but they haven't done anything memorable with it in years."
[2.0] "Wo soll ich da nur anfangen? Null Ausstrahlung, null Charisma, keine nennenswerten Fähigkeiten am Mikro, In Ring Action sticht für mich im Vergleich zu anderen Teams null heraus. Mir erschließt sich dieser maßlos übertriebene Hype um Revival nicht. Mir fallen zig Teams ein die um Welten besser und interessanter sind (Lucha Bros. , Young Bucks, Usos, Briscoes usw. )."
[9.0] "An incredible heel tag team. Not particularly the best in singles action, but, as a team, they can put on a good bout, and they're great on the mic. I don't understand why they're RAW Tag Champion reign had to be cut short by a team like Hawkins & Ryder. A 9."
[10.0] "Gefallen mir als Team unfassbar gut muss ich sagen. Ihr Wrestlingstil ist Hammer und ihre abgefuckte Art finde ich einfach so passend. An diesen Team ist meiner Meinung nach nichts auszusetzen und sie domimieren wie ich finde die komplette TagTeam Division der WWE! Ich hoffe sie erlangen die Titel schnell wieder, alles andere wäre eine Schande!"
[8.0] "A tag team that's definitely greater than the sum of its parts. Neither of them are particularly exciting on their own but when they work together against another good team they can really use their no-nonsense style to work as great heels."
[9.0] "Aktuell mit das beste Tag Team der WWE. 2015 wirkten sie noch etwas langweilig und wurden auch schlecht gebookt, jedoch nach ihrem erneuten Titel Gewinn wirken sie super interessant und sind die absoluten Zerstörer im Tag Team Bereich der WWE. Im Ring und auch am Mic sind sie sehr solide und durch ihre Aggresive Art ziehen sie auch super Heat. Für mich eines der Besten Heel Tag Teams zurzeit."
[10.0] "A modern-day Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard. I am incredibly happy to see they have such a high rating on here. "Very Good" doesn't even scratch the surface. They're amazing talkers, technicians, and their chemistry is off the charts. They've put on some show stoppers in NXT but sadly the main roster has not been kind to them. Dash was injured and the writing team seemingly forgot about them. There's no denying that they should've been 1 or 2-time tag champions by now. Hopefully someday in the near future, they'll get the push they deserve."
[9.0] "It sucks what ill-timed injuries can do a team's momentum. Before Wilder's broke his jaw, they seemed primed for a solid run at the titles in Summer of 2016. They've been a bit listless and a potential move to Smackdown could re-start them. However, as it goes, when these two are given time they are one of the best tag teams in wrestling. Their old-school style of tag team wrestler really makes their matches flow especially with good babyface teams. They aren't close to reaching their potential as a tag team, but I think post-Wrestlemania looks promising."
[8.0] "Great tag team and solid throwback to teams of old, notably the Brain Busters. New perfect tag team dynamics and a joy to watch for wrestling purists."
[10.0] "Überragendes Tag Team, das aktuell zu den besten Teams der Welt zählen dürfte. Nahezu perfekte In-Ring-Psychologie mit feiner Match-Struktur, die sie in jedem einzelnen Match zum Vorschein bringen. Ganz, ganz tolle Worker."
[8.0] "The Revival isn't doing anything new or really all that amazing. I'm not saying what they do isn't special because it is but it's also just old school tag team wrestling. The Revival is just digging from the well of great tag team wrestling psychology 101. They are fundamentally sound and really fun to watch as a team. They know haw to get great heat as a heel tandem. I see Scott Dawson as the standout not to take anything away from Dash who is very good in the team as well."
[9.0] "The Revival war insgesamt das wohl kompakteste Team in NXT. Beide sind vielleicht nicht die größten Techniker, aber oh ja, sie wissen wie man dem Match eine Struktur gibt, wie man eine Heel/Face Psychologie Einbaut, Near-Falls timt etc. Ihre Matches gegen American Alpha als auch gegen DIY gelten zu den Besten NXT Matches aller Zeiten. Leider im Main Roster in den letzten Monaten ein wenig an Relevanz verloren, somit kleine Umstufung auf 9 Punkte."
[10.0] "Sie sind das Greatest Tag Team of All Time! Zwei Spitzenathelten, die sich von unten hochgearbeitet haben und sich als The Revival dann wirklich gefunden hatten. Vorher als sie ohne Tag Team Namen bzw. als Mechanics rumliefen harmonierten sie meiner Meinung nach noch nicht so wirklich. Jetzt schon! Sie haben zurecht zweimal die NXT Tag Team Title gewonnen, wurden zurecht Tag Team of the Year und vor Allem kam der Call-Up völlig zurecht. Hier möchte ich auch nochmal besonders auf ihr Heel-Work eingehen. Die beiden werden, weil sie einfach wahnsinnig gut sind gecheert, allerdings schaffen sie es dennoch so böse/hassenswert zu agieren, dass sie am Ende doch die gewünschten Heel-Reaktionen ziehen. Eine Fähigkeit, die lange nicht mehr alle großen Heels beherrschen. Die beiden tun das! Nach all den excellenten "NXT Takeover"-Matches wird jetzt die Frage sein, ob sie in der Zukunft mit den Hardys kollidieren oder nicht. Und wenn ja, wie dieser unwillkürliche Zusammenstoß zweier so unterschiedlicher Stile aussehen wird. Ich trau den beiden mit jedem Gegner ein Gutes- mit Weltklasse-Match zu. Sie sind das was sie von sich behaupten zu sein TOP GUYS!"
[10.0] "Watching The Revival reconciles me with wrestling. Without any doubt they are the best tag team in America today and one of the best in the last decade. They are so good that seems to come from a different era. Their chemestry is truly unbelievable."
[10.0] "These two are the brainbusters of today's generation. The best Heel tag team in WWE today. Their phsycology is awesome and their old school in-ring style is great. They are capable of giving a tag team classic against any team. Their matches against DIY and American Alpha were awesome and their theme song is awesome too."
[10.0] "The Brainbusters for a modern era. Simply one of the best tag teams in the world today, and they keep it simple in the ring. They work the heel tag team formula to perfection and have had fantastic matches with Enzo & Cass, American Alpha, TM61 and D. I. Y down in NXT."
[10.0] "My favorite tag team in WWE. I love their old-school style and their arrogance. If there's no hindrance, they will be one of future legendary tag teams in modern era"
[10.0] "SAY YEAH! Ohne Spaß: Müsste ich den Begriff ''Entwicklung'' definieren, The Revival wäre wohl das beste Beispiel dafür! Was innerhalb von gut einem Jahr aus den beiden geworden ist, hätte ich nie im Leben erwartet. Von zwei vollkommen unscheinbaren Jobbern, die lediglich ihre Südstaaten-Zugehörigkeit vorzuweisen hatten, zum für mich aktuell besten WWE-Tag Team! Die beiden sind die Definition von In-Ring-Psychologie und Tag Team-Harmonie, dazu ist jedes Match, das sie worken, ein absolut sehenswertes Meisterwerk. Das Match gegen DIY bei NXT Takeover Toronto war das vielleicht beste Tag Team Match der letzten Jahre in der WWE. Ich hoffe wirklich, die beiden werden nicht ruiniert wenn sie ins Main Roster kommen, es wäre einfach viel zu schade um ihren wirklich grandiosen Aufbau."
[10.0] "Dash and Dawson prove that sometimes the most innovative thing you can be is completely old school. With an style patterned after past tag team greats like the Andersons and the Brain Busters, they combine their no-frills offense with excellent tag team chemistry, selling and tag psychology to form about as perfect a heel tag team combination as you could hope for, which serve as perfect foils for flashier babyface teams. With a great run in NXT as a centerpiece of its tag division (including becoming the first two-time tag champs of the brand), I expect big things for the team when they hit the main roster."
[10.0] "Die typischen Spätentwickler. Anfangs fragt man sich noch, wer Dash und wer Dawson ist. Heute ist das klar und noch viel mehr. Sie haben ihr Statement gemacht und leben ihre Rolle. Die Promos sitzen, im Ring sind sie unfassbar abgestimmt mittlerweile. Verdiente "first ever two times" NXT-Tag-Team-Champions. Lasst die Jungs noch weiter an Alleinstellungsmerkmalen arbeiten und sie haben allerbeste Top-Spot-Main Roster-Qualität - wenn sie überhaupt den call up brauchen. Die Schlachten gegen Alpha und zuletzt gegen Ciampa & Gargano sind die besten Tag-Matches, die die WWE in Serie produziert hat. Hätte man den Mut, (Bullet) Club-Mitglieder selbst zu entwickeln statt sie einzukaufen, wären The Revival das ideal Tag-Team in dieser Konstellation. Sie haben (fast) alles, was Gallows & Anderson in Japan ausmachte."
[10.0] "I feel so good knowing how much I liked these guys before most everyone else did. Everyone thought they were just crap back then, but I saw how fundamentally sound they were in the ring. Yeah they had that one botch at a TakeOver, but not much other than that. They just look like mean brawlin machines and they back it up soundly."
[10.0] "Easily the best tag team going in wrestling. They pace and structure their matches to perfection and take 80's style in use it in today's format to utilize great psychology. I prefer these guys over the Young Bucks any day as I don't want to stop watching them while they're at work and it's so much fun to watch as well. They work limbs, use psychology, and tell story all to great perfection and has produced some of the best tag bouts I've seen in recent memory."
[9.0] "Sie haben sich einfach fast perfekt weiterentwickelt und jetzt sind sie eines der besten Tag Teams weltweit. Sie arbeiten als Tag Team sehr gut zusammen und sie haben einfach eine großartige Chemie. Außerdem passt ihr Tag Team Name sehr gut, da sie den alten Tag Team Stil wieder zurückgebracht haben und so ist das eine gute Abwechslung zu den ganzen High-Fly Tag Teams."
[10.0] "My favorite Tag Team today and they have my favorite tag team finisher, the Shatter Machine. Always putting on match of the night and being master heels"
[10.0] "By far the most cerebral tag team to come through WWE's doors in a very long time. Dash and Dawson might be great workhorse wrestlers in singles competition, but together, they are a phenomenal "thinking man's tag team". Everything they do has meaning, every trick they pull, their positioning, in and out of the ring, their choice in moves, nothing from these guys is done for showing off athleticism - everything is designed to hurt or wear down their opponents until they hit the Shatter Machine for the win. It's a style of wrestling that is reminisce of 1980s NWA, and for some reason, it's perfect for them and a perfect way to help them stand out in a division that as a range of different and exciting approaches. They are well deserving as the first ever 2-time NXT Tag Champions."
[8.0] "Alleine würde jeder von Ihnen wahrscheinlich ohne Gimmick-Makeover total untergehen. Zu generisch wirken sie einfach. Als Team hingegen sind sie dem Heel-Playbook entsprungen und funktionieren fantastisch. Man kann Wilder und Dawson sowie den Fans nur wünschen, dass sie NICHT ins Main Roster kommen. Dort würden sie vermutlich schnell zu Comedy-Jobbern verkommen."
[10.0] "For me, Dash & Dawson are the best tag team in all the business. They have great in-ring abilities and proper mentality, which changes two wrestlers into team, acting as one organism. Their matches are storytelling all they way, from start to beginning. They've a pretty good gimmick too. I never get disappointed by them."
[10.0] "Nach einer langen Entwicklung der zwei muss man sich jetzt einfach mal vor Augen halten, was man da gerade für ein Tag Team hat: Das Tag Team das die drei wohl besten NXT Tag Team Titel Matches geworkt hat. Am Stück. Das spricht für sich. Ich bin richtiger Fan geworden. Edit: Das derzeit beste Tag Team auf dem Planeten. Punkt. Die Matches sind unglaublich stark und sie schaffen, was heute quasi kaum ein anderer Heel Team oder Singles Heel schafft : organisch Heat zu ziehen und dem Gegenpart so riesige Reaktionen zu verschaffen"
[10.0] "Probably the best heel tag team in NXT history. These guys are great together. They have a unique styles that is old school with a bit of modern day wrestling added in. They have put on some great matches with Gargano and Ciampa, American Alpha, and Enzo and Cass. Defiantly see them moving up as soon as they lose the belts."
[10.0] "UPDATE: Hoch auf 9 Punkte. Was können die beiden eigentlich nicht? Verkörpern ihr Gimmick gut und die beiden wirken einfach wie Brüder. Weiterhin gefällt mir der Ring-Style der beiden als Team wie auch als Individuen sehr gut. Die Backstage-Promos sprechen mich auch an. Anfangs den beiden doch eher skeptisch gegenüber, muss ich eingestehen, dass die beiden verdient an der Spitze der NXT-TT-Division stehen. UPDATE: Das habe ich wohl ein wenig verschlafen. The Revival ist das beste Heel-TagTeam weltweit, period."
[10.0] "My favourite tag team in WWE as of now. Dash and Dawson are remarkable old school heels with tremendous in ring chemistry, and are for my money the best heels in WWE/NXT today as far as in ring goes. Their matches with American Alpha and Gargano/Ciampa have been absolutely superb. What a team."
[10.0] "The Revival have, since my previous rating, proved themselves tenfold. They are, for my money, the best tag team in the world, beyond even Yankee Two Kenjuu, American Alpha, Super Smash Bros, and Strong BJ. Their conversion of 80s heel tactics into a modern context is flawless, and the structure of their title matches is totally unpredictable and compelling. While I think Dawson is the star of the two, both men carry their weight in the team and are absolutely more than the sum of their parts. These days, any major Revival match has the makings of a modern tag team classic."
[10.0] "Erinnern wirklich sehr an Arn Anderson und Tully Blanchard bzw Arn und Ole Anderson. Man könnte sagen die Brain Busters oder die Minnesota Wrecking Crew der Neuzeit. Erfrischend Old School, ein Heel Team wie in alten NWA Tagen - Der Name Revival ist Programm. Gut aufeinander abgestimmt, klassische und neue Heel Taktiken und vorzeige Tag Team Wrestling. Für mich eins der besten aktuellen Tag Teams."
[10.0] "The revival are a amazing old school tag team, that not only gives credibility to the nxt tag team division, but they actually feel like a tag team in everything they do."
[10.0] "Mein momentanes Lieblingsteam! Als Singles Akteure höchstwarscheinlich nicht so berauschend, aber als Tag Team absolut Großartig! Sie sind einfach ein exzellentes Old School Heel Tag Team, welches jeden erdenklichen Trick kennt und diese zu ihren vorteilen einsetzen. Im Ring haben sie eine unglaubliche Chemie miteinander und von der ausstrahlung her sind sie einfach Perfekt! So muss ein Heel Tag Team fungieren!"
[7.0] "Kein übles Team, aber kann mich nicht wirklich überzeugen, wie andere Teams bei NXT, wie z. B. American Alpha oder Gargano and Ciampa. Da fand ich es schon ziemlich schade, dass sie erneut die Tag Team Championships gewonnen haben. Am Ende eine Gut gemeinte 7/10 von mir. P. S. Den Namen des Teams finde ich Mega Random."
[10.0] "They bring back psychology not seen since earlier peaks of the Tag Team division. There's no wasted motion, everything that they do is meant to just hurt their opponents while still maintaining a quantitative amount of wrestling skill. They have the best double team moves in the tag division on this roster, TODAY, where as many tag teams can feel like they are just two singles wrestlers who just happen to tag each other into the ring once in a while. No flips, just fists is a moniker I can get behind if it means more brutal wrestling matches where crowds get deflated because their heroes like Enzo and Cass have their faces punched in, their knees snapped in half and their noses smashed into mats on the floor. They are a resurrection of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard. There's a reason why veteran tag teams say they are the best tag team on the roster and their mic skills are actually quite underrated and unappreciated because what they have to say on the mic is truthful and engaging."
[9.0] "Dash and Dawson are very in sync as a team, there's not much more you could ask from a team. Scott Dawson is obviously the better of the two, but they gel well as brawlers who get the job done."
[7.0] "Herrlich old-school und dabei leider so frei von Charisma. Trotzdem unterhalten mich Dash und Dawson auf ihre ganz eigene Art und Weise, da sie sich so vom Rest des NXT-Kaders unterscheiden."
[10.0] "These guys have really blown me away, their old school fundamental approach to tag wrestling is genuinely refreshing, and they really seem to have the personality to pull off the gimmick. The best team in NXT right now for my money, one of the best in WWE."
[10.0] "Ich muss jetzt einfach mal ein Lanze für die beiden brechen. Beide verkörpern die Rednecks einfach hervorragend und ihr Brawling-Style passt da einfach zu. Dazu haben sie auch eine gute Technik, sind stark am Mic und ziemlich charismatisch. Allerdings hoffe ich, dass sie noch einige Zeit bei NXT bleiben, denn ich befürchte, dass sie in den Main-Shows mit der Comedy-Ausrichtung in der dortigen Tag Team-Divison falsch eingesetzt werden. Die beiden sind einfach NICHT lustig. Und das ist positiv gemeint."
[9.0] "These guys are great heels. Their wrestling styles is ver different than the usual on NXT. Much more 80s brainbusters. And I like it. Not every wrestler has to do moonsaults."
[7.0] "Mir gefällts. Super Konterprodukt zu all den Flashy Teams. Im Main Roster gibts die Luchas, die Usos, die Matadores blabla bla. Diese beiden sind "auf dem Boden geblieben". Hart, pragmatisch, "oldskool". Ich mags. Dieser ganze Throwback Ansatz funktioniert und mit so einem Team in der Tag Division kann man umso bessere Stories im Ring erzählen. Wenn jedes Team nur noch am rumfliegen ist, ists doch langweilig oder? Gute Jungs. Ordentliche Worker. Nichts herausragendes, aber genau darum gehts ja."
[8.0] "Unglaublich effektives Old-School Heel Tag Team, dass wunderbar zusammmenarbeitet und gerade in Sachen Kleinigkeiten Detailverliebtheit beweist."
[4.0] "Not a fan. Two former jobbers are now the Tag Team champions out of nowhere. Was not excited they won the titles I was more mad and angry. I hate Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson does absolutely nothing for me. There have been great Tag Team Champions from The Ascension, Blake and Murphy were awesome, and these guys are just meaningless to me."
