Chris Jericho and The Big Show were awarded the tag titles on July 26th 2009 at Night of Champions when The Big Show replaces the injured Edge. They lost the Titles to DX on December 13th 2009 at TLC in a TLC match.

As much as I loved JeriShow, I voted Londrick here due to the fact these two were a tag team from the beginning and continued to be a tag team until London left WWE.

LonDrick were a good team but Jericho and Big Show did more than they did to not only make the belts feel special, but to make the tag team division itself feel resuscitated, even if it was only somewhat. Their mic work was just as effective as their in-ring work together, and although that's largely due to Jericho, Show's contribution can't be overlooked. London and Kendrick only had the in-ring aspect going for them, we never heard them cut many promos together. Kudos for doing what many teams don't do nowadays however, wear matching ring gear.

LonDrick held the belts for over a year, and they actually defended them plenty of times against credible tag teams. JeriShow might have had the mic skills due to jericho, but as a tag team LonDrick were successful and exciting.

Not these belts they didn't, I think you are thinking of the world tag titles.

To me it doesn't matter which belts they were, they were the number one tag team over a long period of time. The heading says better tag champs and that is what I am going by when I vote.

This is probably the first, and last time I will ever vote against Jericho, but LonDrick is my favorite tag team. And I'll see them to the end. Both were shinning lights in the tag division, and OWNED the entire division for over a year. Longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions of ALL time. Deserving to be in the final 8 by far.

LonDrick were WWE tag champs for a year that isn't these belts but because they were tag champs in WWE I can understand the reasoning. Still vote against them though.

I went with London and Kendrick. They felt like a cohesive unit and held the titles and defended them for a long time. JeriShow always felt just thrown together and random to me.

I can see what ants is saying, but the trouble is even the best teams would struggle if they are given such a short reigns, but I do agree that London and Kendrick had a great run overall.
