Basic Moveset

A lot of Rockers-esque teamwork and singularly, fast-paced wrestling. Nothing crazy. They're quick and they're agile but they're not going to do anything mind-blowing, aside from a dive or two.

Jade does a lot of the team's talking for them. The above catchphrases should tell you exactly why.

 

 

History/Background/Career Highlights:

Tyler and Shayne first met at University in Michigan and realised they had common interests such as wrestling, the NHL and the dream of becoming multi-platinum superstar pop heroes! Unfortunately, things didn't work out. After failing in their attempt to become overnight mega-stars courtesy of that pillar of fine televisual entertainment American Idol, Tyler and Shayne went for Plan B. Unfortunately, they sucked at Ice Hockey too. Luckily, they could wrestle okay, so they went with that. Like any poor deluded young men though, they still harbour dreams of one day being popstar semi-boyband teen idols. Make sure to look out for their debut single, "Your Love Is Like A Backdrop Driver", in bargain bins nationwide!

 

Since getting into the business, D*LUX have formed a close team bond. While working in OAOVW, they met up with fellow Michiganer Jade Rodez. After months trawling the indy circuit, without so much as a sniff of a recording contract or a big payday of any sort, the duo were convinced into coming to the bright lights of Thursday night HeldDOWN~! by Jade. She took managerial control of the team, not to mention a 60% cut of the profits (on a certain Krista Isadora Duncan's superb if a little irresponsible advice, of course).

 

However, at AngleMania VI D*LUX's career hit a crossroads. After much success under Jade's tutelage including three HI-YAH Tag Team Title reigns, Jade ditched her team to live the high-life with The Enterprise. Over the next four months D*LUX had to learn to cope without her guidance, forming a bond with his brother Leon and a 'bond' with Chicks Over Dicks. Eventually though, at AngleSlam '07, Jade saw the light and returned D*LUX's side. The boys are stronger for the experience though and ready for bigger and better things.
