2025 Year in Review Part 8 - Tag Team of the Year (Male and Female)
TOP MALE TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR - MISFITS OF MAYHEM
Points: 587.5
Record: 10–3–2
Win Percentage: 67%
This isn’t a sympathy win.
This is a numbers-and-impact win.
The Misfits of Mayhem didn’t just top the division — they outperformed it, despite wrestling fewer matches than their peers.
Why the Misfits win:
Highest total points of any male tag team
Best win percentage in the division
Matches carried disproportionate narrative weight
Central drivers of the Flippers disappearance saga
Directly tied to the transformation of Jack Mason into the top star of the company
Dave’s take:
“This is what happens when every match matters. They didn’t pad stats — they detonated storylines.”
Their inactivity late in the year doesn’t hurt them.
It confirms the impact.
The Misfits burned bright, burned fast — and reshaped NPCW in the process.
RUNNER-UPS – MALE TAG TEAMS
Polar Bears
Points: 558.5
Record: 17–5–9
Win Percentage: 55%
The Polar Bears were the iron men of the division.
More matches than anyone.
More situations survived than anyone.
Dave’s take:
“If this were about endurance, they’d win. But it’s about impact per match — and the Misfits edged them.”
Still elite. Still relevant. Just barely outpaced.
Friar Tuck and Little John
Points: 389.5
Record: 8–8–7
Win Percentage: 35%
These two quietly held the division together.
Dave’s take:
“They weren’t stars — they were stabilizers. And every division needs that.”
The Beasts
Points: 386.0
Record: 5–4–4
Win Percentage: 38%
Status: Former Tag Champions
Dangerous, unpredictable, and never fully harnessed.
Dave’s take:
“When the Beasts hit, they were terrifying. When they didn’t, momentum died. Potential remains high.”
DAVE’S FINAL WORD
Tag Team of the Year isn’t about longevity alone.
It’s about what happens when the bell rings.
In 2025, no team:
Won more efficiently
Mattered more per appearance
Or left deeper scars
Than the Misfits of Mayhem.
That’s the award.

TOP FEMALE TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR
Blonde Bombshells
Points: 803.00 | Record: 14–2–2
This one’s not debatable.
The Blonde Bombshells didn’t just top the list — they lapped the field.
High win rate. Strong schedule. No collapse under pressure. Even as singles stories pulled at them, the team never lost credibility.
Dave’s take:
“This is what dominance looks like when it’s disciplined. They didn’t chase moments — they accumulated wins.”
Runner-Ups – Female Tag Teams
Mrs. Claus and Pearl
Points: 232.00 | Record: 6–6–2
Emotionally driven, uneven, but meaningful.
Dave’s take:
“They weren’t killers — they were survivors. And sometimes that’s what the division needs.”
Crimson Viper and Dark Duchess
Points: 222.50 | Record: 10–4–3
Dangerous, efficient, and unapologetically cruel.
Dave’s take:
“They didn’t need to be loved. They just needed you to lose. And a lot of teams did.”
Grimm Sisters
Points: 198.50 | Record: 5–2–4
Low match count, high upside.
Dave’s take:
“This is what potential looks like when it’s already producing. Give them time — they’re coming.”
DAVE’S FINAL WORD
Tag Team of the Year isn’t about who looked coolest.
It’s about:
Who showed up the most
Who stayed credible the longest
Who didn’t collapse when stories got complicated
In 2025:
The Misfits of Mayhem and Blonde Bombshells did that better than anyone.
Everyone else?
They’re chasing them.
