Was anyone here fans of them? I know it's not Chris Candido's best stints, but it was his most reconizable stint in WWF. He also got to hold WWF gold, and won at a Wrestlemania.

I thought they sucked hard. Terrible gimmick. Between them, The Smoking Gunns, and The Godwinns, you had some real awful tag teams from that era. I never marked for any of them.

Two great wrestlers hampered by a terrible gimmick that only really got Sunny over.

I remember reading how the Clique really tortured Candido over how bad the gimmick was. Also that his gf was having sex with their leader. Poor guy.

Candido was arguably the first victim of the Valet Curse. Although he was able to rebound and show what a great wrestler he was in ECW.

Can't forget Rad Radford as a Bodydonna-in-Training.

Bodydonnas and Rad Radford dont seem to get mentioned when the worst characters ever come up. In the Wrestlecrap book of lists they didnt make the top 25 worst characters ever and I would have put them there.

Eh, I didn't think either were *bad* gimmicks, just pretty uninspired ones. They certainly don't rank with the mummies, escaped convicted felons and drug dealer gimmicks.

I love them. On my wall hangs a picture of them when i saw Candido wrestle at a local show i said can i have the one with you and Tom Pritchard and he said sure and he said to a RCG go get Tom to sign this to. I was so happy and it was a few weeks before he showed up on TNA

Thank you, thank you, and thank you. Unfortunately, compared to today's tag team division, at least that period had some tag teams that made sense. - bretclark

Well if you took all the WWE Wrestlecrap gimmicks from that era, I'd put the Bodydonnas right there in the top 3 worst. If you add Cloudi and Rad Radford to them then that just seals the deal for me.

Issac Yankem was better. At least he had the cool dentist drill sound effect in his entrance theme going for him.

It got Sunny on TV so I'm fine with them.
