Paul London and Billy Kidman were once Tag Team partners on WWE TV and went on to have a rivalry on WWE SmackDown. It seems like the duo wasn't fond of each other in real life as well. At one time, London and Brian Kendrick were doing a variation of the Shooting Star Press, and Kidman wasn't happy.

And I remember [Billy] Kidman coming up to me, and he said, 'Hey man! You're gonna steal my move every night?! You're gonna keep stealing my move every night?!' I just looked at him and said, 'Do you do a running Shooting Star off the back?' He goes, 'uh... well no, but...' I go, 'Well... yeah.'

Billy Kidman used to perform the Shooting Star Press on his opponents, and WWE once weaved a storyline around the move about how it was incredibly dangerous for his opponents. As for London and Kendrick's move, the latter used to get on all fours, while London would jump off him and perform the move on their opponents.
