There are many great friendships in the professional wrestling with several strong connections having been made. The likes of Edge and Christian or Triple H and Shawn Michaels have made friendships for life because of this business, and that of Matt Cardona and Brian Myers is another.
The two men have spent their careers working together, proving to be great tag team partners, having enjoyed a lot of success inside the ring. However, they have also become incredibly close behind the scenes as well, having created a true friendship, and while a lot of fans are aware of that fact, there's plenty about their connection people aren't aware of.
10 Importance Of Action Figures
The love that Brian Myers and Matt Cardona have for wrestling action figures is something that is well-known, with both men having huge collections that they take great pride in. However, the reason they're so important to them is because it truly kickstarted their friendship.
The two of them initially started out not seeing eye to eye when they met as they were competitive in training. However, once they realized that the other loved collecting figures, that was enough to break the ice, and the two men have been close ever since.
9 Tag Team Champions
Brian Myers and Matt Cardona have been able to form a great bond away from the ring over the years, but the two of them also have proven to be successful inside of it as well. Because they have natural chemistry, the two men have been able to get over with the audience.
This led to them being two-time Tag Team Champions together, showcasing the fact that inside the ring they are a great tag team. Winning titles with a friend only makes the entire situation even sweeter for a wrestler, which was no doubt the case with this one.
8 Requesting To Be Edgeheads
Matt Cardona and Brian Myers were able to break out in the wrestling business when they were part of the La Familia faction. They were known as the Edgeheads, as the two of them would dress identically to Edge in order to help distract his opponents and confuse them as much as possible.
This led to Edge having plenty of success as Cardona and Myers would prove to be vital. This worked so well most people thought it was a long-term WWE plan, but that isn't the case as it was the two wrestlers themselves who suggested it as they got Edge's email ID and sent him the idea.
7 Teamed Up On The Indies
A lot of fans presume that the two men because friends when being made the Edgeheads due to the time they got to spend alongside each other, but that's not the case. The reason they worked so well together at that point is because they had already been a tag team before that.
They teamed up on the independent scene before they were even signed to WWE contracts, showcasing the fact that their friendship and chemistry already existed before it came to anything else.
6 Vince McMahon's Confusion
When the two men were presented alongside Edge, a lot of fans thought they were legitimately brothers, which is also a mistake Vince McMahon made. The former WWE Chairman also thought that Matt Cardona and Brian Myers were siblings, and a big reason for that is because they were using the same last name.
They called themselves Brett and Brian Majors, which is where the confusion came for Mr. McMahon as he expected that meant they were brothers. When he found out that wasn't the case he demanded that they changed their names because he thought it was stupid.
5 Angering The Undertaker
The Undertaker was always seen as a locker room leader in WWE, being the man who would demand wrestlers followed the rules and showed respect. That is something Matt Cardona and Brian Myers went against during a show in Mexico when Triple H and Vladimir Kozlov were working the main event.
The locker room was watching the show, yet they chose to go on their phones, and they got caught by Undertaker who was not impressed. Mark Henry told them that they had to apologize to the Deadman, who then demanded they did the same to Kozlov and Triple H.
4 Feuded Against Each Other

This is something that some fans may not be aware of if they weren't watching the product at that time, but Cardona and Myers put together some great matches against each other throughout that run.
3 Having A Podcast Together
Podcasts have become a popular platform for wrestlers in recent times, with a large number having one.

2 Offer To WWE
