Footnotes
change- ↑ This is listed as the second longest tag team championship reign in WWE (behind The Usos' fifth reign with the SmackDown Tag Team Championship at 622 days). But the actual length of the reign is unknown, as the actual date Gallus lost the championship is unknown. So the reign length shown here is what WWE officially lists for the reign.
