Pretty simple. What are your top 10 tag matches ever at this point in time?

I'm forgoing 6, 8 and 10 person matches and just keeping it with 2 on 2. There are two notable omissions that I expect will make my ballot and rank really highly for me that I simply haven't gotten to yet in rewatching. They are Rage in a Cage & Final Conflict. Looking at my most recent rough draft, my top 10 are:
1. Hokuto & Kandori vs Aja & Bull 3/27/94 AJW 2. Funk Brothers vs Abby & Sheik 2/3 Falls 7/15/79 AJPW 3. Jumbo & Tenryu vs Choshu & Yatsu 1/28/86 AJPW 4. Funk Brothers vs Abby & Sheik 12/9/78 AJPW 5. Funk Brothers vs Abby & Sheik 12/13/79 AJPW 6. Hashimoto & Iizuka vs Ogawa & Murakami 1/4/00 NJPW 7. Santo & Octagon vs Barr & Guerrero 11/6/94 AAA 8. Kobashi & Kikuchi vs Kroffat & Furnas AJPW 9. Funk Brothers vs Abby & Sheik 12/15/77 AJPW 10. Toyota & Yamada vs Ozaki & Kansai 11/24/92 AJW
I didn't intentionally leave off the big 90s AJPW Native Tags, they just didn't make it. 6/9/95 comes up 11th using my rough draft. Blame Terry Funk.
I've said quite a bit that I've thought Funks vs Abby & Sheik was my pick for best tag feud ever, but 3 out of the top 5 surprised me a little bit when I was going through my draft. I mean, I stand by it still. That's exactly the sort of wrestling I love.
It's amazing that Boss and I had 6 and 8 AJPW tag matches on our respective lists and literally none of them were the same. That really goes to show that AJPW is the best promotion ever when it comes to tag team wrestling.

Only real updates I would make after a recent major binge watch would be putting Crush Gals vs Jaguar & Devil 6/28/84 as my #2 and Final Conflict lands at #6.

Not sure of what the exact order will be right now, but my current Top 10 looks like this
1. Triple H/Steve Austin vs. Chris Jericho/Steve Austin 5-21-01 2. Ricky Steamboat/Jay Youngblood vs. Sgt Slaughter/Don Kernoodle Final Conflict 3. The Hardy Boyz vs. Edge/Christian No Merch 99 4. The Hardy Boyz vs. Edge/Christian vs. The Dudley Boys WM 2000 5. The Hardy Boyz vs. Edge/Christian vs. The Dudley Boys SummerSlam 2000 6. The Hardy Boyz vs. Edge/Christian vs. The Dudley Boys WM X7 7. Shawn Michaels/Diesel vs. Razor Ramon/1-2-3 Kid 9-24-94 8. Motor City Machine Guns vs. The Briscoes 4-28-07 9. The Briscoes vs. The Kings of Wrestling 4-3-10 10. The Midnight Express vs. The Fantastics Clash 1
I’ve still got to watch Terry Funk’s tag run in Japan so there’s a chance some of these won’t make it into a final top 10
