The TASW Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling tag team championship contested in Texas All-Star Wrestling (TASW). It was the third of four championship titles established in TASW, having been introduced in 1996, and remains the oldest active tag team championship in the state of Texas.^[1]

The inaugural champions were Natural Born Killers (Rico Suave and G.Q. Knight), who defeated Top Guns (Ace and Jag) on December 7, 1996 to become the first TASW Tag Team Champions. No team has ever won the championship more than once. Scoby Gober, however, has the most individual reigns with 3. At 813 days, Ryan Davidson and Rockstar Robbie's first and only reign is the longest in the title's history. Brutality Inc.'s (Ken Hoffman and Sean Pendergast) only reign was the shortest in the history of the title lasting only 35 days. Both men were reporters from the Houston Chronicle and donated their prize money to charity upon winning the title.^[2][3][4] Overall, there have been 29 reigns shared between 26 wrestlers, with five vacancies.
