These two golden-clad would-be warriors of the ring are uniquely memorable, though arguably not so much for what they did as much as what others have done in their name. The original team debuted in 1987, where Uno and Dos were so low on the ladder that they would even be used to put over other enhancement talent, with wins for the pair being exceedingly rare. Their career highlight was probably beating The Fabulous Rougeaus in their homeland of Canada, but glory was not in the cards as Uno began appearing solo as The Conquistador before both men departed the then-WWF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkN68JbTSbM What made them memorable, however, wasn't their original tenure, but rather their return in 2000, when they would go on to beat the Hardy Boyz for the WWF Tag Team Championship: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhn-0rq5INo The returning version of the team were not the originals, though, instead being part of a rouse used by Edge and Christian to get back into the tag title picture after losing a "last chance" match imposed by Commissioner Mick Foley. Over the course of the feud, Christopher Daniels and Aaron Aguilera played the part when both teams were seen backstage, with Matt and Jeff Hardy taking up the gold-colored costumes to outsmart Edge and Christian's scheme to win back the titles "legitimately." Since then, a few others have taken up the role of Los Conquistadors, but never with the success of the version caught between E&C and the Hardy Boyz.
