10 Most Baffling Tag Teams In Wrestling History

4. Tons Of Funk

It's crazy to think that Matt Bloom was coming back to WWE in 2012 as a main event talent. Having failed to get over during his previous stint with the company from 1999-2004, the man formerly known as 'Prince Albert' and 'A-Train' had carved quite the career for himself in Japan, becoming a respected in-ring performer and once again catching the eyes of talent scouts from WWE. Making his grand return, Bloom was cast as 'Lord Tensai', and it seemed the promotion really wanted to get behind him as a top heel. That wouldn't last long - once fans started to use his matches as an excuse to visit the merchandise stand, WWE realised their idea was dead in the water, and it wasn't long before Tensai became a comedy act. Oddly enough, this had happened to Bloom before. As Albert, the company had tried to push him hard, even giving him the Intercontinental Title. Thereafter, he was dubbed the 'Hip Hop Hippo', and teamed with Scotty 2 Hotty. By 2013, Tensai was working alongside another comedy wrestler, Brodus Clay. Known collectively as 'Tons Of Funk', the pairing was pretty odd, considering Bloom's previous gimmick, and reeked of being a jobber tag-team.
