Well, I was a bit saddened to see Deuce and Domino's win streak come to an abrupt end last week. I didn't expect them to go over Londrick just yet, but I did think their undefeated run would be kept up for at least a couple of months, to help establish them as future champions. And, much like many others on the threads, I'd like to see more of these two in the future. The gimmick has potential to be a lot of fun, and could get quite a few chuckles out of it.
And it occurred to me, would it be a good idea to do something with everyone's favorite Elvis impersonator, The Honky Tonk Man? If anyone would fit well with these two, it would be him. It might be fun to see them do a storyline similiar to the Backlund/Angle story from way back when Kurt was first with the WWF. Honky Tonk could show up to conveniently interfere in Deuce and Domino's matches, proclaiming he's going to help mentor the young up and comers to the top. Or perhaps just a one night event where Deuce and Domino come to the ring and introduce Honky Tonk to the crowd, only to lay him out a few moments later, thus furthering their role as heels. Just a though.

Put Honky Tonk in the HOF and have him with D&D at Wrestlemania at least

I'm sorry, those two gimmicks are quite different. You've got two impersonators from "Grease", with the 'King'? That just sounds wrong to me.

But they're supposed to be young Greasers, they're not from the 50's, they'd need a Brian Setzer impersonator.

The point is that greasers liked Elvis, so Deuce and Domino could as well. Personally, I think Honky Tonk Man managing Deuce and Domino is a great idea. |

It's a cool idea, but considering HTM's current relationship with WWE, it'll unfortunately never happen.

I suggested this a few weeks back. I just want HTM back.
He did an interview for their website awhile back for the Where Are They Now? bit. Maybe he's softening a bit...maybe he needs their money....

I think he is definitely softening. If Vince brought him back he would job the likes of which ye have never seen.
