Brian Christopher and Scott Taylor were put together as a WWF tag team in 1998 just as the Attitude Era was beginning to rise in prominence. Initially known as “Too Much”, Christopher and Taylor would have a decent WWF run but there was nothing here that was truly remarkable. When both men were approached in regards to changing their gimmick, “Too Cool” was born. Too Cool would go on to become one of the most popular tag teams of the WWF’s Attitude Era, a time when the roster was absolutely stacked with big-name superstars.

Scotty 2 Hotty had worked in the WWF all the way back in 1991. Working as Scott Taylor, Scott was used as an enhancement talent for nearly 7 years. Taylor would make television appearances quite frequently and he faced guys like Steve Austin, Bam Bam Bigelow and Papa Shango on TV but he would always lose. On the flipside, Brian Christopher Lawler was having a great run in the Memphis based USWA. The son of Jerry “The King” Lawler, Christopher would become a main eventer in Memphis, capturing the USWA Heavyweight Championship in the progress. When the WWF introduced their Light Heavyweight division and a new television show, Brian Christopher was brought into the company and Scott Taylor would also get more work thanks to these new WWF additions. Eventually, the two men teamed up, but it took a little while for Taylor and Christopher to gain popularity. When Brian Christopher became “Grandmaster Sexay” and Scott became “Scotty 2 Hotty”, the tag team got a decent push. And when Rikishi joined the duo, their popularity went into orbit.
