I like the sound of the Bad News and Snuka team as I have not had Bad News in any long term teams as he is a loner.

I have him in “Japan” now but have a short list of partners and while I may consider Snuka may go with fellow NY’er Adrian Adonis.

Outside his 80s run, Bad News actually teamed up fairly often but I do admit loner Bad News is fun.

I was looking at who Humperdink had managed but didn't want to go down the Kevin Sullivan 'Dark Army' route yet. Allen seemed like a good choice for a tag team made up of two singles guys.
