History Wrestling / TheWorldsGreatestTagTeam

* HiddenDepths: Shelton Benjamin is a championship video game player who his a good enough artists for a degree in comic books if he ever wants one. According to [[Wrestling/MontelVontaviousPorter MVP]] he is also a penny pincher.

* RickyMorton: Shelton's role in the Minnesota stretching crew was to do the real work, which included the bumps

* TheWorfEffect: What Shelton was largely used for on Raw. He beat Triple H twice and pinned Ric Flair, but then lost a lot. Got to win some, then lost, and so on such as when he passed out in Chris Masters's full nelson or lost the intercontinental championship to a Raw debuting Carlito.

* WrestlingPsychology: Charlie showed some great psychology during his impersonation gimmick on Raw, imitating various other wrestlers and common gimmicks.

* MommasBoy: [[NotNowKiddo "Quiet Shelton!]] Grown people are talking!"

''' The World's Greatest Tag Team''' is a professional wrestling tag team consisting of Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas. The duo debuted near the end of 2002 in ''[[Wrestling/{{WWE}} World Wrestling Entertainment]]'' as part of KurtAngle's new faction, Team Angle. After they broke ranks with Angle and started feuding with him, they adopted the "World's Greatest Tag Team" name. Both sharing amateur wrestling backgrounds, the duo proved to be highly successful performers in the ring. More impressively, they debuted during a period where popular tag teams such as {{Edge}} & {{Christian}} and The Hardy Boyz were no longer together, so TWGTT helped to fill the void in the tag team scene. Unfortunately, the duo split up in 2004 after Benjamin was traded to the Raw brand. [[BreakupBreakout While Benjamin went on to have a relatively successful singles career]], Haas was lost in the shuffle and was briefly released in 2005 before returning to the company the following year. In 2006, the duo re-formed their tag team before they were eventually split up ''again.'' The two were both released from their contracts in 2010. They both found their way to RingOfHonor and competed there for 3 years. Benjamin left for Wrestling/NewJapanProWrestling at the very end of 2012; Haas stayed in Ring of Honor until March 2013, when he quit in what so far appears to have been a legitimate shoot, disbanding the team.

* DittoFighter: Mimics the styles of other wrestlers and public domain characters. Even Great Khali, despite being two feet shorter!

* BadassBoast: "The best damn tag team of all time period!"

* CombinationAttack: Jackknife hold from Haas, super kick from Benjamin

* FinishingMove: Individually, Shelton has the T-Bone Suplex and Paydirt, Charlie has the Haas of pain.

** Shelton does about everything except for not being particular deep in submission holds (he highly excels at the mat, high flying and striking) while Charlie is more so known for submission holds and has a submission finisher.
