Welcome and sorry my friends. Sorry about taking so long but it has been a very busy time for me. With a lot of birthdays and that brings a lot of drinking which brings a long a lot of hangovers. ANYWAYS ...

This is Week 45 and last time we rated the team of Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo who scored a very decent 74. You can't complain about that with them beating out a lot of accomplished tag teams. Well let's get to this weeks team which was choosen by special request.

This was a purely power team. A true force to be dealt with in the NWA and AWA. They started off with only two members but soon added a third. This proved to put them over the top and turn them into champions. They won the NWA World Tag Team titles on two separate occasions and also various other titles together. This team had some GREAT matches with the likes of The Road Warriors, The Rock N' Roll Express, and even Dusty Rhodes. This is Ivan Koloff, Nikita Koloff and Krusher Krushov ... THE RUSSIANS!

Yes, great choice.

I'd say they were probably the best "foreign gimmick" team to ever step foot in the ring.
