Entering the WWE Hall of Fame is a proud honor for many wrestlers as they are recognized for their contributions to the professional wrestling business. Some Hall of Famers haven’t necessarily won many championships to get into the Hall of Fame but many entrants have. WWE has inducted several tag teams into the WWE Hall of Fame, but there have been some wrestlers who started their WWE careers as tag team competitors and went on to win many WWE Tag Team Championships.

The Undertaker earned his rightful spot in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2022, and the Deadman had an excellent speech. Undertaker’s WWE career was fantastic and it spanned three decades. During that time The Undertaker became a Tag Team Champion seven times with four different partners.
Undertaker and his rival Steve Austin won the WWE Tag Team Championship a month before their WWE Championship clash at SummerSlam 1998. Undertaker also had Tag Team Championship runs with Big Show and The Rock. However, Kane is unquestionably The Undertaker’s best tag team partner. The Brothers of Destruction held the WWE World Tag Team Championship twice and the WCW Tag Team Championship. They were the first tag team to hold the prestigious Tag Team Championships simultaneously in 2001 at SummerSlam when they defeated DDP and Chris Kanyon for the WWE World Tag Team Championship.
