In a result that sounds more like punchline (and punishment) booking from WWE, Men On A Mission once defeated The Quebecers for the Tag Team Championships when Pierre legitimately couldn't kick out with the gargantuan Mabel on top of him.

Either stunned or trapped or both by the biggest of big splashes, the defending Champion couldn't move enough for the referee not to register a three when the teams battled over the belts during a UK tour stop in Peterborough. The wrestlers and company went with the unplanned switch, with only photos rather than footage thus far existing to toast Mable and Mo's big moment when the results were discussed on television.

M.O.M getting a run very obviously wasn't in company plans. The pair hadn't managed to wrestle the titles away from the Canadians at WrestleMania X just weeks earlier, and would ultimately lose them 24 hours after the unexpected victory when the tour moved North to Sheffield.
