These two remind me of the Hanson Bros, lol.

I like the Bravados; hope they get used often this year.

Not even close. They are okay in the ring but stink on the mic. I just don't seen how people are getting behind them so much, especially in a company with two MUCH better "up and coming" tag teams in ANX and Cole & O'Reilly.

They both look and sound like giant doofuses, and the music just killed any seriousness the promo had.

Dude if you think this is supposed to be taken seriously, just... I don't even know. This is the best gimmick ever!

Even as a comedy gimmick, it is okay at best. Best gimmick ever? Rewatch your Chuck Taylor vs. the Colony matches (or at least the grenade spots). THAT is the best gimmick ever.

i'm still not behind them, but then again, i've only seen them once or twice. but i still think 2011 will be the year of the ANX, considering they're high right now even without AA

this is what I like about them. I don't think they should win many matches ( I was esp surprised when they beay Cole & O'Reilly after losing to Ridge & Redwood) but I think they're fun characters. One of them said something about their Grandmother buying their plane tickets on one of the news wires and I chuckled to myself a little. They just seem like the type of guys who live in a very small world that basically only includes their family, which I think is hilarious in a very dorky way AND it opens up a LOT of possibilities as far as feuds and storylines go. Imagine them in a feud with Homicide (and a returning Low Ki :D ); someone from a TOTALLY different world. Or a showdown with some more world travelled guys like Daniels and Omega (whom I think would make a great short-lived tandem). I think these guys could become as good this year as Rhett did the first year he used his Addicted to Love gimmick....
