4 WWE gimmicks from 2005 that you had forgotten about (but were very good)

#4 Hurricane and Rosey

UNDERRATED: Hurricane and Rosey

The year 2004 was a real breakthrough year for The Hurricane. His interactions with The Rock were legendary, as was his time in the ring with Triple H.

But it was when he teamed with Rosey - who hadn't done much since he left Three Minute Warning - that his career took off and his title trophy-case started to fill up.

The crowd reactions were always great, whether the pair were together or alone - or with the aforementioned Super Stacy.

They picked up their only tag team titles together at Backlash 2005 when they beat (among five times) Tajiri and William Regal - who are another underrated tag team - in a Tag Team Turmoil match.

They feuded with, and beat some of the biggest names in the business, from Chris Jericho and Christian to Evolution. They also had a very long feud with La Resistance.

The pair held the titles for more than six months, before losing to Cade and Murdoch (remember them?) at Unforgiven 2005, but the crowds still cheered for the plucky superhero underdogs.

And the gimmick was so good, that The Hurricane only retired it in early 2019.

They were my favourite tag team at that time, and their matches are always a fun watch. Who are your favourite Superstars from this time? Leave your thoughts in the comments below!
