5 Unlikely WWE duos that won the Tag Team Championships

#4 Erick Rowan and Daniel Bryan

Rowan and Bryan's alliance might've taken a bad turn recently

In November of 2018, Daniel Bryan adopted a completely new persona when he low-blowed A.J. Styles on SmackDown Live to win the WWE Championship in one of the most shocking manners possible. Now establishing himself as a heel, Bryan started labeling himself as The New Daniel Bryan, who then went on to face Brock Lesnar at the Survivor Series pay-per-view.

At the 2019 Royal Rumble pay-per-view, Bryan successfully retained his WWE Championship over A.J. Styles but this time, fans were left absolutely stunned when Erick Rowan of all people made his return from sidelines and helped Bryan walk away still as the WWE Champion.

After a successful title defense over Ali and Kevin Owens at Fastlane, Bryan would lose the WWE Title to Kofi Kingston at WrestleMania 35. This eventually led to an eco-friendly Daniel Bryan and his giant sidekick Erick Rowan entering the SmackDown Live Tag Team Title picture, as on 7th May, the duo won the vacant SmackDown Live Tag Team Championships by beating The Usos.

What initially felt like the most random tag team of all time, surprisingly worked out pretty well and huge credits to Daniel Bryan himself for that.
