The Rock and The Undertaker aren't the only WWE megastars who have managed to capture tag team gold together. In 2007, Shawn Michaels and John Cena did exactly that, but their time together was even more unique than Rock and Taker's.

When Cena and Shawn won the Tag Team Titles, John was WWE Champion at the time. What made matters worse for their teaming together was that HBK wanted the WWE Championship. In fact, the pair of them fought for it at WrestleMania 23 while they were still Tag Team Champions.

Cena retained his title at The Show of Shows and by that point tension between the two was at an all-time high. One night later, they would lose their tag team gold when Michaels dumped Cena out of a battle royal, thereby handing the titles to The Hardy Boyz.
