The Steiner Brothers v The Heavenly Bodies (SummerSlam 1993)
The New Generation tag team ranks were at their lowest in 1993. It wasn’t given the television time that the Golden Era had enjoyed, and the number of great teams was few and far between. Luckily, a few teams snuck in, and when given the opportunity, these teams created something special.
The Steiners and Heavenly Bodies were hidden on the SummerSlam 1993 card. Even with the tag straps on the line, there was no backstory to build upon nor animosity to exploit. The Steiners were the hometown favorites, so the crowd reaction was there.
The audience was rewarded with an incredibly tight tag team match. The double- team moves were creative, and it was a well-booked match, seeing several hot tags. It was a great back-and-forth contest that gave the audience what they wanted, a hometown victory.
