In-keeping with the theme of stolen goods, Tyson Kidd was the latest WWE criminal to hit the scene in 2011. Along with Yoshi Tatsu, Kidd was a 'Pro' on the NXT Redemption series, but both their 'Rookies' (Byron Saxton and Lucky Cannon) were eliminated, leaving the Pros with little to do. That's when they started feuding over action figures.

During one innocent backstage segment, Kidd stumbled upon a shrine to Tatsu's own action figure. When he went to touch it, Yoshi appeared and was protective of the toy. Then, he nonsensically presented the figure with a chocolate bar. This is the kind of thing you cannot make up.

Later, Kidd broke the figurine and even stole one of the toy's legs. This, somehow, led to matches between both men that were actually pretty good. Inside the ring, Kidd and Tatsu had good chemistry, but they just didn't need the awkward angle that made both look like children fighting over toys.

The leg piece returned to Tatsu's side once he won a match during which it was suspended on a pole, apparently because WWE's creative team (or someone) had lost their minds.
