It was certainly no misnomer when Brian Knobs and Jerry Sags dubbed their team The Nasty Boys.  They looked and wrestled the part and while you wouldn’t see a wrestling clinic when they competed, you would certainly see a match that was well…..nasty.

The Nasty Boys competed in early style hardcore matches, used their armpits as weapons and with their leather trench coats and mohawks they had a uniqueness about them certainly set them apart from other teams.  They had runs in the AWA, NWA, WWF and the WCW and were successful in all of them.  Their last run in TNA is best forgotten, and probably signals the end of their career.  This is likely for the best as they are best remembered for being the great brawlers they were….and few could brawl like the Nasty Boys.  This is a wild card tag team that could gain an induction in years that follow.
