## NWA World Tag Team Title Tournament 1982
February 28, 1982 in Atlanta, GA
Jack & Jerry Brisco________________ |Briscos___________ Ron Bass & Kevin Sullivan__________| | |Briscos_______________________________ Buddy Rose & Rip Oliver____________ | | |Funks_____________| | Terry & Dory Funk, Jr.| | | Ron Fuller & Leroy Brown | |Fuller & Brown__ |Anderson & Hansen___ Masked Superstar & Super Destoryer_| | | |Tenryu & Tsuruta__ | Mongolian Stomper & Rick Harris____ | | | |Tenryu & Tsuruta__| | | Genichiro Tenryu & Jumbo Tsuruta___| |Anderson & Hansen__| | Brad Armstrong & Tommy Rogers______ | |Anderson & Hansen____________________| Ole Anderson & Stan Hansen_________|
Note: A series of tournaments was held throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. This appears to be the last. The original storyline was that the East Coast representatives would meet the West Coast reps. However, that idea was dropped. Anderson and Hansen showed up on television as champions and had been awarded the belts because they won the most tournaments. Whether this is true or not is unclear.
