10 Worst WWE Tag Team Champions Ever
5. Kenzo Suzuki & René Duprée
Someone needs to be held accountable for having the bright idea to combine a young French-Canadian who was struggling to get over with a Japanese import who was also toiling in 2004. René Duprée and Kenzo Suzuki must rank as some of the worst WWE Tag Team Champions ever. They mixed about as well as oil and water.
Duprée had already held the World Tag Titles with Sylvain Grenier as part of La Résistance. If you thought that team were the pits, then you had quite the treat in store. And by 'treat', we mean 'nightmare'. Somehow, René's team with Suzuki on SmackDown was even more painful than his beret-wearing duo with Grenier had been on Raw.
The pair had beaten Paul London and Billy Kidman on an episode of SmackDown to win the belts, and 91 days later that's where they'd lose them. Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio, the men chosen to supplant Duprée and Suzuki, may have been an odd pairing too, but they could fall back on the fact they were taken seriously by fans.
And weren't dire.
