20 Obscure WWE Tag Teams You Totally Don't Remember
3. Rene Dupree & Kenzo Suzuki
Another hastily assembled WWE tag team, Kenzo Suzuki and Rene Dupree actually had a relatively successful run compared to some of these other pairings. They only teamed for a handful of months, but Suzuki and Dupree became WWE Tag Team Champions by defeating Paul London and Billy Kidman in September 2004. The reign lasted exactly three months, and after falling to Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio in December, the duo quietly went their separate ways.
Suzuki and Dupree's title win came at a real low point for tag team wrestling in WWE, and their union was nothing short of bizarre. Suzuki had debuted as a textbook anti-American Japanese patriot, and as one half of La Resistance, Dupree played a similar gimmick from a French-Canadian point of view. They went in the complete opposite direction as a tag team, however: Suzuki and Dupree became pro-America, with Suzuki regularly singing songs like "Living In America" for the audience.
Suzuki went on to enjoy a solid career in Mexico and Japan after eventually leaving WWE in June 2005, while Dupree faded into obscurity after his release two years later.
