    Nate Ford was an insurance investigator before breaking bad in 2009, recruiting a bunch of criminals and then going all Robin Hood w. them.

    George Peppard starred as insurance investigator Banacek for 3 seasons (‘72-‘74), and I wondered what a Leverage team might look like if he put it together back in the Swinging Seventies.


    WEN YU-RANG (The Wrecking Crew 1969)
    Fluent in multiple languages, w. a keen knowledge of history, culture and art , the jet setting beauty of Eurasian descent and ambiguous nationality's counterfeited, conned, and seduced her way across all of Europe. She sometimes works for bad guys, honey trapping their enemies. It’s more than likely she’s crossed paths w. Banacek on more than a few occasions.

    CONNIE SHOKNER (The Longest Yard 1974)
    Already a legendary brawler before being drafted to fight in Korea, the outlaw biker became a highly decorated paratrooper and began studying martial arts, staying in Asia for several years after the War to continue his studies. Back in the U.S. he killed several men w. his bare hands in a bar brawl and was sentenced to life in prison, from which he eventually escaped. He’d never met Banacek before, but was impressed at how easily the man tracked him down.

    GIORGIA VICARIO (Seven Golden Men Strike Again 1967)
    Began her criminal career as a child, picking pockets. Has grown into a gifted thief, deft at security circumvention. An accomplished gymnast, she has a level of spatial intelligence that aids her in everything from thieving, to drawing, to driving at absurdly high speeds. Swore she’d never work w. partners again after a nasty break up w. the leader of her last crew, but seems to owe Banacek a favor (or two) and so agrees to help him on his fool’s errand.

    THEO (Die Hard 1988)
    By 1988 Theo was a total villain, amused every time someone died during the Nakatomi Plaza job. My version will turn out differently though, recruited by Banacek in his early twenties, and using his skills to help ppl. As the tech guy, Theo runs wiretaps, installs listening/tracking devices, hacks into power grids, disables electronic locks/devices, and invents all kinds of neat gadgets for the team as needed. He’s an expert w. and huge proponent of, computers, which he believes will revolutionize the world in time.

    I like the idea of having two insurance investigators team up and run with this idea. It makes sense that more people would have this thought process and try to do something. Even better if they tease them Nate and Banacek having some heated arguments but remain very much united no matter what happens.

    Because no one demanded it! A murdery version of The Addams Family…:


    JOHN MILTON (Gomez Addams)
    From The Devil’s Advocate. Milton’s a super rich guy who really enjoys his work, and hardly ever gets upset or take things too seriously. You might even say he’s Devil may care.

    GERRI DANDRIDGE (Morticia Addams)
    From Fright Night 2: New Blood. Gerri’s got the alabaster skin and good looks, the effortless poise, and the dark hair. She can def. rock a slinky black dress, too.

    ESTHER (Wednesday Addams)
    From Orphan. Movie reviews compared Esther to Wednesday when this movie first came out. Some reviews even said the movie would make ppl not want to adopt kids.

    TOMMY MILLER (Pugsley Addams)
    From The Butterfly Effect. This future serial killer liked twisting the heads off dolls. Pugsley and Wednesday used to play w. a headless doll named Marie Antoinette.

    HORACE PINKER (Uncle Fester)
    From Wes Craven’s Shocker. Both Fester and Pinker seemed to get off on using electric chairs. Everyone’s gotta have a hobby I guess.

    OLD LADY GANUSH (Grandmama)
    From Drag Me To Hell. The Addams franchise has always been pretty vague about what the various characters actually are, supernaturally speaking. Grandmama's a rare exception as she's pretty obviously a witch, like Old Lady Ganush. Hell, these old biddies prob. went to High School together.

    THE TALL MAN (Lurch)
    From the Phantasm franchise. C’mon, who wouldn’t want the Tall Man to answer their door for them? And who wouldn’t pee themselves if they were the ones knocking?

    THE HAND (Thing)
    From Idle Hands. I don’t think we ever did find out the name of the demonic force possessing Anton Tobias’ right hand, but that’s okay. The Hand is pretty happy in Milton’s home, and pops up when and where it’sleast expected.

    EUGENE (Cousin It)
    From Housebound. Cousin It was the hardest character for me to do. I finally settled on Eugene, a seldom seen recluse who moves around Milton’s home via secret passages. Pictured above, you can see he usually looks like a dirty bedsheet ghost, and is actually pretty hairy underneath.

    If these wrestlers were all active at the same time, I’d love to see them form a dominant heel stable that gets all the gold.


    ”Ravishing” RICK RUDE
    Great look, great gimmick, great on the mic, legit tough guy, could draw heat in a snowstorm. Rude’s one of those guys you look at and wonder why he never became WWF Champion. Well, as leader of this stable he’d get the Title and keep a stranglehold on it.

    ”The Queen” CHARLOTTE FLAIR
    Flair’s never done the I’m prettier than you gimmick, but she drips arrogance, and would fit right in w. this stable. She and Rude as World Champions and co-leaders would play off each other well imo.

    VAL VENIS “The Big Valbowski“
    Val always came off as a poor man’s Rick Rude. That’s not to say he wasn’t good; he was a solid midcard guy, and would get the Intercontinental Title while in this stable. Like Starscream, he’d always keep his eye on Rude though, waiting for any sign of weakness.

    BREEZANGO
    Tyler Breeze and Fandango. Both these guys had variations on the pretty boy gimmick, and were one of those thrown together teams that wound up clicking really well. From comedy skits to in ring chemistry these guys were great. As part of this stable they’d quickly grab up the Tag Team Titles and bring the funny to balance out the other personalities.

    ”Sexual Chocolate” MARK HENRY
    Such an odd silly gimmick, but to his credit Henry ran w. it. The IRL World’s strongest man would serve as the stable’s enforcer. In between crushing the competition and loving the ladies, he’d also snatch up the US Title so he and Venis could dominate the midcard scene.

    ^^^Not my best copy/paste job, but it’ll do!

    Going w. an NWO invasion scenario on a smaller scale.

    Shawn Hernandez is a near 300 pounder w. impressive speed, who likes to beat opponents down. Santos Escobar can wrestle you on the mat, or take to the air. He also has a huge sadistic streak and loves to hurt opponents.

    Hernandez/Escobar will start attacking wrestlers backstage (and occasionally in the ring coming through the audience), Hispanic ones for sure, but also b-listers like the ones always screwing around w. the 24/7 title.

    Rey and Dominik Mysterio will of course take point on mounting a resistance.

    We’ll back and forth this for several weeks until a non sanctioned match is agreed to by WWE for the next available PPV between Hernandez/Escobar and the Mysterios.

    Which is when Dominik will make his first ever heel turn by betraying and beating his own dad bloody.

    Cue big speech from Dominik, in which he’ll name the faction…

    The Latino World Order.
    A new and (according to Dominik) improved version of the same faction Dominik’s Uncle Eddie and his dad Rey once belonged to.

    So now we have Dominik revealed as a mastermind evil enough to bring in and lead, these two badass in ring veterans, to run roughshod over the midcard scene.

    A reboot of the old TV Show.
    America, Israel, Russia and England are tasked w. restarting The Uncle Program, which was mothballed 50+ years ago.

    NOT a great assignment.

    JAMES SILVA (The American)
    Since a disastrous mission in 2018, Silva’s made life a living hell everywhere he’s been assigned. The CIA’s happy to hand this guy off. This way at least, he becomes someone else’s problem. I like the idea of the American being the stoic, one man army team muscle guy, a role usually played by the Russian on the team.

    GISELE YASHAR (The Israeli)
    Yashar led a pretty dodgy lifestyle after leaving Mossad and going freelance, taking up w. a notorious gang of thieves. Mossad doesn’t waste assets though, and took her back specifically to put her on this mission, where she’ll pay her penance and start climbing back up the ladder.

    SIMON FISCHER (The Russian)
    Fischer’s a second generation spy; Ex-KGB turned FSB and SVR, Fischer lives the life of a playboy tech millionaire as cover for his global activities. His superiors lost faith in him though, after he started seeing an active CIA agent romantically. He has, of course, been tasked w. spying on The Uncle program and everyone in it.


    BASIL EXPOSITION (The Brit)
    What’s cool is Basil looked the same in the 90s as he did in the 60s and looks the same now as he did in the 90s. He'll mostly supply levity to offset the team’s darker moments. I say mostly because well,

    the late Phil Hartman had an SNL skit playing Pres. Reagan as a goofy old guy, who was actually a Political genius behind closed doors. That’s how I’m playing Basil.

    No doubt someone thinks it’s funny they sent the silly old relic of an agent to head up an equally silly old relic of a program, not suspecting that Basil was the one who secretly got UNCLE started up again w. himself in charge. He’s going to blow his team’s minds when he eventually outs himself, and tells them what UNCLE’s real purpose has been all along.
