Wwe Big Show and Chris Jericho

When Chris Jericho and Edge got together earlier in the year ad hoc and won the tag titles, people were creaming themselves at the awesomeness. When Edge was injured and Jericho said he'd be getting a replacement, people were full of theories. It'll be Christian! Someone from Florida to help get them started! Jericho's facing Legacy, so it'll be Orton! Just about every name on the roster was bandied about, but when Chris Jericho stared down Legacy and introduced Big Show, you could feel the air deflate in the collective IWC room. Many of you thought this was one of the worst things WWE could have done short of having Jericho decapitate a baby. Me? Not my first choice, but I was willing to give it a shot. And damn good thing that I did, because JeriShow fast had the doubters eating humble pie, because the pair had an undoubtable chemistry and had a string of good matches while champions. It's been rather odd that while the Tag Titles have become one of the main belts in the whole WWE, and since they came together at Wrestlemania, they have been fought for mainly by main eventers, it hasn't necessarily been a banner year for actual tag teams, with more teams breaking up rather than coming to prominence. I'm sure that balance will be readdressed, starting with whoever relieves the titles from DX (c'mon Hart Dynasty!), but the belts themselves have had a great run on top this year, and the lynchpins of that were JeriShow.
