Cade and Murdoch appreciation thread

[Ben Wyatt]

Let's all appreciate one of the more underrated tag teams in a long time.

Yeah, they had a couple of reigns with the titles, but they really didn't get a lot of chances to shine given how mediocre the tag division was for most of their time.

Great chemistry, solid in the ring and a great old school feel to them. And that theme song was badass.

[The Tank]

I'm not usually one to speak ill of the dead, but I have to disagree on the grounds that Lance Cade was crap.

Nothing particular stands out against him, he just...wasn't very good. Mediocre worker, mediocre talker.

Trevor Murdoch deserved better, though. They really should've done something with that country singer gimmick.

I was a really big fan of Murdoch, thought his look was great and he could have gone far.

[joediego]

I really liked Murdoch's look in so much that it's good to see a non-bodybuilder/steroid body on a 'strong' wrestler.

They were very bland and mediocre, I couldn't work out why they were on the roster with a generic cowboy gimmick in 2006. I guess that was why they failed.

["Gentleman" AJ Powell]

They were alright. I mainly liked them because the Sweet and Sour and the Atomic Drop/Big Boot combo both looked sick.

[TGM]

They were a pretty good team in such a forgettable time in WWE. Ten years earlier or ten years later, I think they'd have more legacy.

Both guys were better in their singles careers anyway.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

I was never a huge fan but they were a decent team. Sweet N' Sour was a good tag finisher.

Would that be the singles career of Lance Cade which lasted two weeks or Trevor Murdoch: Karaoke Singer? 

Both didn't really do much of anything in WWE Split up from what I recall... 

Murdochs sideburns kicked ass though...

I remember more of Lance Cade as Chris Jericho's protege than I do of any of his 'memorable' tag reigns.

Ditto Murdoch and his movie review gimmick.

[Allie Kitsune]

It always surprises me just how long Cade was actually up on the main roster, even going back to his time as Garrison Cade.

[Ryback on a Pole!]

I thought they were awesome. Good gimmick, great chemistry, both decent workers and I loved how agile Murdoch was for a fat guy.

I remember they had a really fun feud with The Hardys with some really good matches.

[Bishblast]

I always liked them, especially their run with the Hardy Boys. Also, one of the matches I've seen with the most crowd heat was when they faced HBK and HHH at a Raw I went to in 2006 in a street fight... short match, but it really got the crowd into it.

[PsychoGoatee]

I came in here to say "Biscuits and gravy!", but that's the wrong tag-team. Still a fun expression, and tasty!

He was basically a super-sized Chris Jericho





Cade also had the most brutal kayfabe send-off I ever seen as he was brutally beaten by his own mentor and released the next day (WWE implying that he was so badly beaten that his career ended). I thought C&M were a decent tag team. Their vignettes were great and I think that out of all his countless gimmicks, the smooth talking redneck ladies man would have gone the farthest had they stuck with it. RIP.

I thought they were a pretty decent tag team, the brand split kept them limited but i enjoyed their rivalry with the Hardys. The tag division now could probably do with a team like C&M now to give the Uso's something to do.
