But High Voltage were great. I rank them up there with The Mulkey Brothers, The Cole Twins, The Ding Dongs, and The State Patrol as true greats.

They were short but muscular looking so it wouldn't really mather.
Rage was like 240 lbs on a 5'9" frame.

I think that their name was The Wrecking Crew, but I could be wrong, seeing how Mike Enos and Wayne Bloom were the "new" Minnesota Wrecking Crew.
Does anyone remember this team and their individual names? I know they had a story in The Wrester about how they were going to destroy the Road Warriors. | Kane Is Ugly

Nope, although I remember Disorderly Conduct was another team at the same time. Turns out it was the Texas Hangmen (obsessedwithwrestling.com). Helps that they were masked under that persona and not as Disorderly Conduct.

I seem to remember reading at one point somebody convincing the brass to keep them around for just that reason...you got two jobber tag teams in one. I want to say it was Cornette, although I'm not entirely sure if he was with the company at that point.

It was Rage and Fury, the Wrecking crew. Marc Laurentis and Al Green. Marc was later the Terminator, while Al was famous as Master Blaster Blade.
