KroniK

[4.0] "So like ten years after the fact I was on Reddit or something and someone finally actually said it out loud for me to hear it: KroniK was actually a weed joke. To be fair, these dudes never really acted like stoners, just big tall mean dudes with long wet hair. They did drop a lot of weed puns in their promos though ("We're going to light you up! " "When all that's left is ashes, we'll be riding high" etc.), so I guess it's better than nothing? I dunno. WCW from 1999 and beyond was just... well, I don't think I need to describe how bad and weird and nonsensical those couple years were. I actually do like both of these guys (mostly held over from their New Generation WWF runs-- I literally own an Adam Bomb t-shirt), and they had a good look (for the year 2000), but yeah, the whole was still somehow less than the sum of their parts. Maybe if they weren't victims of being employed by WCW in 2000 they could've actually been booked a competent human being and gotten a chance to really shine. Probably not though. 3.5 rounded up."

[2.0] "Really bad, and a strange rip-off of WWF's APA concept as brawlers for hire, only with weed(kinda sorta) instead of beer. Neither guy is terrible, and Clarke is actually a pretty underrated big man, but the two parts just didn't come together to make a functional whole. As it stands, they're a pretty bad part of late-era WCW, which was already filled with pretty terrible acts. So this winds up as just one more bad decision on a great big pile of the things. Not a fun team, but the individuals work by themselves."

[4.0] "Do you reckon these lads had ever rolled a joint in their lives? Far too busy sticking needles up their arse. They would have been great about 10 years before just murdering job guys. Tried and failed to drag Mean Mark and his gobshite brother to something good."

[4.0] "WCW's APA knockoff. Not the worst tag team of all time, but far from great. Brian Adams was at his highest success since the Kona Crush days in 1992/1993 and Brian Clark was probably getting his biggest push at this time. They didn't make it through the WCW buyout very well. Sat out an entire year before being brought into the WWF and bombing out in a tag match against Kane and Taker. They were both canned afterwards and that was the end of their careers in big promotions."

[8.0] "Honestly I hated Kronik because I only saw their stinker with Taker & Kane at Unforgiven, but I think that was Taker's fault, because he really sucked bad in 2001 post Mania. And In WCW and All Japan Kronik ruled! They were a hoss tag team that threw people. I don't know why Marijauna was the influence because they don't look like stones at all, but in the ring they were a while bunch of fun."

[0.0] "Kronik were an absolutely terrible tag team. Whilst Bryan Clarke was capable enough, although nowhere close to being good, Bryan Adarms was an abysmal wrestler, devoid of all talent, but he and Clarke both shared lousy attitudes and an inflated opinion of their abilities. Their biggest claim to fame is having one of the worst WWF matches of all time, opposite Undertake and Kane."

[5.0] "Adams and Clarke came together in the late days of WCW and, as a reasonably-good if somewhat stiff power tag team, basically defaulted into a position as one of the company's top tag teams, and earned two reigns with the belts. Came to WWF with the Invasion, but after a poor showing against Kane and Undertaker were promptly shown the door, and then had a brief run in AJPW (where they won the tag belts) before calling it quits. Not too bad a track record for a team that WCW probably threw together as they didn't have anything else for them to do at the time. Still trying to figure out what wearing trenchcoats with mirrors on them has to do with marijuana use."

[4.0] "After a solid decade of bumming around the midcard of both the WWF AND WCW, these two finally achieved championship success. Good things come to those who wait. Unfortunately they were pretty reckless and stiff with their opponents, so they get a lower rating. Plus their match against the Brothers of Destruction. No one could recover from that."
