Was never big on HM myself
They were a fun comedy act team never to be taken seriously. Wasn't surprising that Tucker got released right after he turned on Otis and broke up the team. Kinda surprising Otis survived and actually had a borderline serious run on Raw/SD.

Hank/Tank are a modern version of it. Don't know if they're championship material but they're capable of filling a role on the show. I also think they may have more staying power than HM.

I think Tank is a great Otis comparison but he has potential to be a lot better tbh. Dude has something but can easily be stuck in comedy (and doing it well) his whole career too

oh definitely. But when everyone else was a serious act being a comedy act helped them stand out. Helped them get called up too. H&T same boat but has more staying power if you ask me.

No one gets me hype for a show like 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne do since Dynamite stopped bringing the boom

I can't tell if Lash and Jakara are being the heels in this feud with the champs or just having an attitude but I'm still surprised they didn't turn Lash full babyface and do more with her couple with Trick.
