*WWE champion John Cena comes out for a title belt presentation. They plug Wrestlemania 22 will be in Chicago. JBL comes out with the box and when he goes into the box, but when he goes into it, there's nothing in it but meat guts.

Could someone give me some background on MNM? What kind of gimmicks or characters do they use? What do they use for a finisher? What kind of style do they use? I know the few times I saw Johnny Nitro wrestle, he was extremely acrobatic, so I'm hoping he hasn't lost that.

The gimmick is a "Hollywood Hotshots" type thing. They come to the ring in OVW with a red carpet and "paparazzi" that snap pictures of them.

 

They are a really good pesky heel tag team in that they're smaller, so they can bump like crazy to make the faces look good, and usually cheat a lot to take over and win a match.

I'm glad to see they finally gave these guys the smackdown spot they deserve and it appears they are already being hotshot into a real program already.

 

I don't like the M-N-M name however. I would have liked to seen a Hollywood Blondes style name like Hollywood Express.

I'm more surprised they are already getting a push, I figured they just show up on Velocity and stay there.

At one point, it appeared Matt Cappoteli may have been replacing Joey Matthews in MNM as several agents had suggested putting Johnny Nitro and Cappotelli together. A number of people in the company pushed for the Matthews/Johnny Nitro duo to stay together including Tommy Dreamer, Dave Lagana and Paul Heyman. Vince McMahon was said to have made the decision to keep the two together with Melina for the Smackdown brand. According to one source, the saving grace for the team may have been Rey Misterio putting over how much he was looking forward to working with the team.

Mysterio along with Eddy also was pushing Paul London.

 

If you want a push, suck up to Mysterio.

I've heard good things about MNM but have never actually seen them perform. I'm glad to see that they've kept their gimmick and will tune in Thursday to see them.
