While we mourn the passing of Chris Candido, there is something I have been meaning to ask about for a while on this board, RD.
Didn't he and Tammy Sytch, before they were given the Body Donna gimmick and still wrestling dark matches at WWE shows, didn't they have a superhero gimmick or something called Team Spirit?

I've heard of that too...
I used to buy every wrestling magazine I could get my hands on back then and recall hearing something about that...
I'm not sure if it was a superhero gimmick or just the original name for the 'BodyDonna' gimmick
On a related note, does anyone remember Tammy Sytch doing the 'WWF Live Event News' under the name 'Tamara Murphy' before the debut of the BodyDonnas??
R.I.P. ~ Chris Candido.

I remember reading about Tammy on Live Event news, but I never got to see her on there, since Superstars was not available in our area at the time.
BTW, I dont think was the original name for the Body Donna gimmick. It was a whole different character that the WWE was going to give him.

Remember "Fondle Me Elmo"? Of course you do. Was that Candido in the Elmo suit? For the sake of his memory, I sure hope not.

Regarding Team Spirit, they did work at least one taping under that schtick: groups.google.ca/groups?selm=3iilhm%24prr%40eis.wfunet.wfu.edu&output=gplainThey were babyfaces, with Candido as a combination superhero/fitness guru type of character (I don't know how else to describe it) and Tammy as a cheerleader who kissed Chris before he wrestled and high-fived him after every hot move. Together, they are known as "Chris and Tammy from Team Spirit. |

Ya know, that's a funny gimmick. And they have so many faceless divas around now, it could be funny to take three fo them, dress them as cheerleaders and put them with a tag team. Imagine a tag team with its own cheering squad! Heels, natch.
