Team Hell No was one of WWE’s most crowd-favourite programs, featuring Kane and Daniel Bryan. The team had a gimmick where Kane and Bryan didn’t exactly get along with each other but triumphed through a mismatched mix of their strengths working together, cancelling out each other’s weaknesses in the process.

However, a few months after Team Hell No had already soared in popularity, Austin Aries and Bobby Roode came together in TNA to form their own version of the dysfunctional tag team and called it “Dirty Heels”.

Even though Austin Aries and Bobby Roode are both amazing performers and their team was one of the best in the history of TNA, the timing of them debuting their dysfunctional team gimmick and the similarities between the way they were booked and the way Team Hell No was booked, make it a fair shout for being yet another WWE ripoff by TNA.

Next, let’s take a look at the gimmick (or rather, a whole storyline) on TNA that has most obviously been copied from the WWE.
