WWE.com came out with another list, this one with Borring WWE Tag Teams and the Gymini are on it. They were only around for a short period, but basically they were two "perfect specimens" developed by the Simon System (Nova as a Fitness Guru) The Gymini seemed like generic big guys but with the Simon Dean character as a mouthpiece I found the whole overall angle hillarious. What did everyone else thing of the gimmicks of the Gymini and Simon Dean?

Dean, yes. Gymini, no. The Simon System gimmick could have been a really solid midcard act, but there was nothing interesting about Gymini other than them being twins. They could have put him with someone like Chris Masters and claim that the System gave him that body and it would have been infinitely better.

That may have made me care about Chris Masters.

The Simon Dean thing was getting tiresome but I didn't mind the Gymini but they looked to much like a pair of low budget Goldberg clones.

Dean could have been the "Santino" of his era.... and he was much better in the ring..... Gymini themselves, not so much.....

It would have remained fresh if the Gymini had turned against Simon Dean, thereby making him a face and ripe for new feuds.
