#2 John Cena and Shawn Michaels
What happens when one of your rivals becomes your tag team partner? Fans were presented with this scenario when John Cena and Shawn Michaels teamed on an impromptu basis the night after the Royal Rumble in 2007.
On that night, they defeated the tandem of Edge and Randy Orton, Rated RKO, for the World Tag Team Championships. However, Michaels ultimately cost them the Tag Team Championships later, as he turned on his partner leading to The Hardy Boyz becoming champions once again.
Their rivalry was one which was between main event contenders, competitors that were capable of challenging for a championship. Together, they were a successful tandem, albeit for a short time. While there was animosity between them, which revolved around the WWE Championship, they were able to channel their energy in order to walk away as Champions. During their feud, they were not only great opponents but a great team as well.
