[edit] History

Before the tag team was formed, James Storm and Chris Harris were occasional rivals on the independent circuits. They were brought together at NWA-TNA 2 on June 26, 2002, when another tag team called The Dupps refused to fight the Rainbow Express. Storm and Harris won the match, and joined forces from then on.

The team would become one of the best known tag teams in TNA's history and they engaged in many feuds with such teams as The Naturals, Team Canada, 3Live Kru, Triple X, and Team 3D.

On September 15, 2005, AMW turned heel by siding with Jeff Jarrett and Team Canada, helping Jarrett win back the NWA World Heavyweight Championship from Raven in Canada.

Since then the team have served as enforcers and backup for Jeff Jarrett and Gail Kim. They've also sparked up a rivalry with Team 3D, assaulting them and leaving them bloody in the ring when they first debuted and staging a mock funeral for their careers afterwards.

AMW recently held the Tag Titles for the sixth (and final) time, and longest reign NWA World Tag Team Champions since it's revived inception in 1998. They defended the tag titles against Sonjay Dutt and Chris Sabin at Against All Odds. AMW became the longest-reigning NWA World Tag Team Champions in TNA history on March 29, 2006, surpassing The Naturals reign of 24 weeks. They lost the belt at Slammiversary to A.J. Styles and Christopher Daniels

Recently, they have been feuding with Latin American Exchange. At Turning Point 2006, AMW lost a flag match to LAX. When James Storm hit Homicide with a beer bottle, glass flew into the eyes of Harris. Storm blamed the loss on Harris. AMW would get a re-match on the December 14, 2006 edition of iMPACT in a "Titles vs. Team" match with the stipulation that AMW would have to split up if they lost. They would lose after Storm deliberately hit Harris with a beer bottle.
