Yea it's sweet they want to be like LOD and Demolition but unfortunately they don't have the charisma to pull it off. Demolition were hardly The Rock in tag team form. The Ascension are better than Demolition.

I feel like their finisher is being done backwards. It'd make more sense for Konnor to be doing the shoulder tackle, while Viktor did the leg sweep, given their size. Viktor's part isn't a shoulder tackle, it's a European uppercut. It's difficult to tell from the angle in the video though. Regardless, that should still be Konnor's part.

Not feeling it. The self-awareness kills the whole vibe for me, makes it feel cheap and hurts the legitimacy of their characters. I'd rather have the Ascension from NXT. I didn't like them that much, but I thought they'd be better on the main roster, and they weren't a cute parody.

If they were gonna be this kind of team, they shouldn't be"Victor" and "Connor". That would be like LOD being "Hank" and "Arnold" and look out for that scary Demolition: "Al" and "Smith"

"And then there was Saturn and Kronus, THE ELIMINATORS, who we're actually ripping off more than LOD or Demolition..."

That would be like LOD being "Hank" and "Arnold" and look out for that scary Demolition: "Al" and "Smith" HERE COMES THE AL AND HERE COMES THE SMITHER Honestly though, I'm mostly liking the gimmick so far, and I think the somewhat goofy self-awareness is necessary to make it jive with the modern day product. I'd give them more face paint and get rid of the spaz-Illuminati-symbolism Titantron, since it no longer fits their characters (in terms of the popular conspiracy theory, what do the Lumies have to do with a post-apocalyptic wasteland?) but otherwise it's pretty awesome to see a new tag team in this vein.

Oh, good! I always said the one thing I didn't think The Ascension did enough of in NXT was face jobber tag teams.
