I read that there's a third team down in ovw they're priming to send up to WWe. They're called the Thrill seekers (with other Tough enough 3 winner Matt Cappotelli and Johnny Jeter).
I don't know much about them, but with the dire straits the tag team division was in a couple months ago (looks a little better), it's probably a good thing for a new team to be brought up. Where do you think they should go? There's always Smackdown with Johnny Nitro, but it seems that WWe is trying to avoid the "hungry young tough enough blue chipper" route and no longer acknowledges most of the tough enough participants.
Now Raw, it looks like La Resistance is on it's way out, and the Heart Breakers haven't made that much of an impact, compared to MnM.

I say the more tag teams, the better. Even if some of the teams are duds, we'll never know unless they give 'em a shot.

The Thrill Seekers actually wrestled on Velocity once, and they were pretty good. The team meshed well, and had a good look.
Anything with Matt Capotelli is fine by me. For some reason, both of the TE 3 winners will always have special places in my heart.

Agreed.... and I think TE2 has a lot to do with this. The outcome of TE2 was such a joke, that I breathed a sigh of relief when TE3 actually chose two winners based on talent. I mean come on, Jackie Gayda??? TE winner???

Though I do wonder what happened to Jonah. I saw him on Xpw a couple months later, and heard he was on TnA a couple times (trained by wwe, and head on over to TnA, that was kind of weird to hear). But I figure with WWe's policy on hiring the interesting runners up, that he'd be picked up for sure. I mean they hired Chris Nowinski, and the guys who injured themselves in tough 2 (matt morgan) and tough enough 4, and hired the 40 year old dude that they got pissed at for lying to them. |

Johan is working in the Pittsburgh/West Virginia/Ohio area for ICW, NWA-East, and PWX. He sucks.

For anyone who hasn't seen The Thrill Seekers in action in OVW, you really are missing alot.
Since being called to the WWE, MNM has really lost something. Sure, they're tag champs, but, that means nothing. In OVW these guys were the coolest things around. In the WWE, sadly, the whole act is based on making Malina a star, unlike in OVW where they worked fine together and it really worked extremely well.
The Heart Breakers are on a level all their own. Vignettes or interviews (especially vignettes) would make everyone......EVERYONE love these guys. They'd get that addictive. Their entrance is nowhere near the same as in OVW, and went so far down. They really need Morris by their side too now.
As far as Thrill Seekers go, i could see them on SmackDown, and maybe fueding with MNM, since they know them well. And it's not like they have to make references to Tough Enough.

I'm still waiting for a TE winner to feud with Hardcore Holly, claiming he made their life a living hell during TE and now that he's on "the real show," he can come back for revenge. It's odd that they never even acknowledge these guys' TE past on screen. That would make for a great pseudo-shoot angle.
