Today\'s New Generation Declassified looks at the 1996 WWF Tag Team Championship Tournament. When The Smoking Gunns were forced to vacate their titles, the WWF and President Rowdy Roddy Piper announced an 8 team tournament to crown new champions. This tournament would be spotlighted on weekly editions of WWF Superstars and feature a host of established, new and make-shift teams looking to capture the gold. In this episode, "The Chadster" runs down the match brackets, discusses each team, looks at where they were at that time and what the outcome of the tournament would like post WrestleMania 12. Looking back, it was initially met with sour memories by Chad, but did a re-watch turn his opinion around?\\xa0
