[1996-05-20-WWF-Raw] Henry & Phineas Godwinn vs The Bodydonnas

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Highlights of the Godwinns winning the tag titles from the Bodydonnas in MSG. I liked the Sunny/Phineas stuff. The best moment of that feud is later o this set.

We're a long way from the Road Warriors, Sting & Luger, and the Steiners. Though in highlight form the action seems pretty decent.

I'd quite sad that the most notable feud Tammy Sytch was involved in during her WWF stint was against the Godwinns, and especially freaking Mideon. Yeah, she was pretty great in that feud, but still.

Also, a babyface forcing a kiss on the female heel manager looks so much like sexual assault in 2015. Yeah, times change, and although I don't like political correctness, in this case the change is for the better, really.

 

And yeah, the tag team scene in WWF was so sad despite some good teams (the Gunns, the New Rockers, the Body Donnas). Tag titles match on Free pre-PPV.

We see HBK doing the Kilq sign as he walks out of MSG

 

The Godwins win the tag straps and the Phineas fascination angle with Tammy is in full swing. Man, most of these Raws were just filled with nothing and it is no surprise that WCW was able to gain some great traction.

I have to ask the question.  Phineas seems athletic enough for a guy his size.  Are the Godwinns really as bad a team as they wrestle, or are they out there underperforming on purpose?  Seems to me they could probably do more, but are shackled by the "clueless hillbilly" gimmick.
