Eric Young and ODB-TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions

Do you realize that Eric Young and ODB have been the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions since February 28th, 2012?
I still don't understand how that works...but they have had the titles for 102+ days.

" Showtime" Eric Young, Part 4

On the Genesis 2006 pre show Eric Young beat the odds defeating Robert Roode. This infuriated Roode and on the following Impact Roode cut a promo against Eric Young. The match started a long time rivalry between the two.

The "Paranoid Pied Piper of TNA" would soon be challenged to a bikini contest by Roode's associate Ms. Traci Brooks. Eric accepted and beat Ms. Brooks in a bikini contest at the Turning Point 2006 pay-per-view on December 10, 2006, by wearing a Spongebob Squarepants bikini. Eric Young continued his feud with Robert Roode and Ms. Brooks with Ms. Brooks trying to get Young to join "Robert Roode Inc." Finally, at Against All Odds 2007 Ms. Brooks successfully seduced Young into signing a contract with "Robert Roode Inc." This consequentially sent him into an odd angle, in which he is systematically humiliated every week by Roode, in such horrid acts as cleaning toilets for Roode's own personal use, and getting illegally involved in Roode's matches. He eventually beagn to fight back the orders of Roode, in part due to the advice of a mysterious "friend". On the April 26, 2007 episode of TNA Impact, the "friend" was revealed as Jeff Jarrett. Young eventually broke free of his contract by defeating Roode at Slammiversary 2007 via an inside cradle, after Gail Kim took out Ms. Brooks. At Victory Road 2007, Eric Young & Gail Kim would defeat Robert Roode & Ms. Brooks in a Mixed Tag Team match. Around this time, Young would be billed as from Freedomville, USA, a reference to Young being free from his contract with Roode.

On the August 2, 2007 episode of IMPACT!, Roode had Young tarred & feathered on national television in the Impact Zone. On the August 8 edition of TNA Today, Eric Young commented on the humiliation of being tarred and feathered, and then challenged Robert Roode to a "Humiliation Match" at Hard Justice. Roode would eventully go on to accept the challenge. Roode won the match, but Gail Kim came to Young's aid. Roode attempted to attack her, but accidentally knocked Ms. Brooks out instead. Roode retreated up the ramp, leaving a semi-conscious Brooks to be tarred and feathered by Young and Kim.

When Adam "Pacman" Jones joined TNA, Eric Young was desperate to get an autograph, but ended up getting attacked by Ron Killings and spray painted by Pacman. Lately, Young has been teaming up with Shark Boy on a consistent basis, nearly winning the number one contenders spot to the Tag Team Titles. Young was Judas Mesias's opponent in his official debut match, and was badly injured despite Shark Boy's rescue attempt. On the 4 October edition of Impact, Young faced and successfully defeated "Tennessee Cowboy" James Storm in a Gauntlet match when he reversed Storm's sleeper into a pin. At Bound for Glory 2007, Eric Young won the 15 men Fight for the Right Battle Royal by pinning Robert Roode with a small package to win the first round. He was eliminated from the tournament in the second round after being pinned by James Storm, who would go on to give him a beer at the urging of Jackie Moore. From there, Young and Storm have been appearing in promos where they are having beer drinking contests, most recently at Genesis 2007 where Young took Storm's World Beer Drinking Championship belt (a decorated WWE Championship toy belt) after Storm passed out before they could call the contest a truce. Young defended that strap on the last Impact before Turning Point 2007 in a 60-second speed drinking contest, which he won before Storm would viciously assault him. He would go on to defeat both Storm and the Angle Alliance (the latter done as Samoa Joe and Kevin Nash's replacement partner for the no-show Scott Hall) in matches at Turning Point.

" Showtime" Eric Young, Part 2

Team Canada began feuding with The Naturals and Lance Hoyt, with Young, Roode and A-1 defeating Hoyt and The Naturals at TNA No Surrender 2005 on July 17. America's Most Wanted formed a loose alliance with The Naturals against Team Canada, with Young, Roode, Williams and A-1 defeating The Naturals and America's Most Wanted at TNA Sacrifice on August 14. After Williams renewed his pursuit of the TNA X Division Championship, Young began teaming with A-1 on a regular basis. At TNA Unbreakable on September 11, Young and A-1 faced America's Most Wanted, Alex Shelley and Johnny Candido and defending champions The Naturals in a four way tag match. Young was able to pin both Candido and "Wildcat" Chris Harris, but Team Canada lost the match after Chase Stevens managed to pin A-1.

At Bound for Glory 2005 on October 23, Young, A-1 and Bobby Roode defeated the 3Live Kru. After the match, their attempts to beat down Konnan were foiled by Kip James. Later that night, Team Canada foiled an attempt by 3Live Kru to save Rhino from a beating at the hands of Planet Jarrett, then helped Jarrett place Rhino in a casket which they had brought to ringside. However, as Team Canada and Planet Jarrett celebrated, Team 3D entered the ring and, with the help of the now recovered 3Live Kru, drove Planet Jarrett and Team Canada from the ring. Young, who had been standing atop the casket, was hit with a 3D by Team 3D. He was then thrown into the casket in the place of Rhino, who in turn stood atop the casket, celebrating his earlier victory for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship over Jeff Jarrett. As a result of the events of Bound For Glory, Young, Roode and A-1 faced the 3Live Kru in a rematch at TNA Genesis on November 13. Team Canada lost the match after Ron Killings pinned Young. The long-running feud between Team Canada and the 3Live Kru ended at TNA Turning Point 2005 on December 11 when Young, Williams, Roode and A-1 defeated the Kru and Kip James (the "4Live Kru") after Konnan turned on his teammates.

Peter "Petey" Williams, part 1

Peter "Petey" Williams (born August 26, 1981) is a Canadian professional wrestler.
He is currently working in the United States for TNA Wrestling, where he is a competitor in the X Division, and the former captain of Team Canada. He is referred to by the nickname "The Canadian Destroyer", a reference to his incredibly awesome flip piledriver finisher of the same name.

Williams was trained alongside Chris Sabin by Scott D'Amore at the Can-Am Wrestling School. Williams debuted in D'Amore's Windsor, Ontario-based Border City Wrestling promotion in 2002. He spent the next four years working on the independent circuit in Canada and the Northern United States.

In addition to wrestling for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, Williams works on the independent circuit in Canada for Border City Wrestling, where he is the reigning Can-Am Television Champion, and in the United States for promotions such as NWA Cyberspace and Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. He made a one-time appearance in Ring of Honor on June 18, 2005 at Death Before Dishonor III as the mystery opponent of the returning A.J. Styles.

Williams debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling on February 25, 2004, replacing Teddy Hart as the "captain" of Team Canada. He and the remainder of Team Canada took part in the TNA 2004 World X Cup Tournament, but were defeated by Team Mexico and Team USA.

On August 11, 2004, Williams won the TNA X Division Championship in a twenty-two man Gauntlet for the Gold match, entering at number eleven and pinning The Amazing Red to win the bout.

Early in his title reign, Williams claimed that the Canadian Destroyer could not be countered. However, after Williams successfully retained the title in a match with A.J. Styles at Victory Road 2004 on November 7, 2004, Chris Sabin began claiming that he was capable of countering the move. He went on to counter the Canadian Destroyer into his own finishing move, the "Cradle Shock", on three occasions in the month following Victory Road. However, Sabin was unable to defeat Williams for the X-Division Championship at Turning Point 2004 on December 5, 2004. Williams's five month, five day title reign (the longest X Division Championship reign until his record was surpassed by Christopher Daniels in 2005) ended on January 16, 2005 at Final Resolution 2005, where he was defeated by A.J. Styles in an Ultimate X match that also featured Sabin.

At Lockdown 2005 on April 24, 2005, Williams and fellow Team Canada member "Showtime" Eric Young unsuccessfully challenged America's Most Wanted for the NWA World Tag Team Championship. They challenged then-champions The Naturals at Slammiversary 2005 on June 19, 2005, but were once again defeated.

Williams returned to the X Division on July 17, 2005 at No Surrender 2005, unsuccessfully challenging TNA X Division Champion Christopher Daniels. Williams, along with all of Team Canada would go onto join Planet Jarrett upon TNA's debut on Spike TV in September 2005.After winning Ultimate X8 at Bound for Glory 2005 on October 23, Williams received a title shot against A.J. Styles at Genesis 2005 on November 13, but was once again defeated. Williams would resume wrestling in the X Division and battle in a losing effort against Chris Sabin, Elix Skipper, Shark Boy, Puma and Chase Stevens in an Xscape Match at Lockdown 2006. Williams and Sabin were left at the end after all of the eliminations, however, he lost after Sabin was able to climb over the cage and land before him.
