The Legion of Doom walked into the November 24, 1997 edition of Raw as the World Tag Team Champions, but they didn’t leave as the champions. Hawk and Animal had been one of the most influential tag teams in wrestling history, so it was only fitting that they would be dethroned by one of the more influential tag teams of the late 1990s in the New Age Outlaws, Billy Gunn and Road Dogg. It looked as though LOD was getting ready for the win as they had the Outlaws set up for the Doomsday Device, but Billy Gunn got Animal in a victory roll for the pin and the Outlaws’ first World Tag Team Championship. It marked Gunn’s fourth reign as champion.
