The Powers of Pain
Real names: (B) Sione Vailahi (W)Terry Szopinski
Hometown: Parts Unknown
Membership: The Barbarian, the Warlord, Mr. Fuji, the Baron
A.K.A.: Super Assassins, the Super Destroyers
Background: As mentioned, Tito Santana brought the two in for revenge for Demolition's attack on Strike Force.
They VERY quickly ditched Santana and hooked up with the Baron, but the older man retired. During a dust up, the Powers quickly betrayed their allies and took in Mr. Fuji after Demolition beat the older jerk senseless.
From there Fuji called the shots.
For the most part they did alright, but they went from major forces to minor thugs at best. In 1990 they split, with Fuji selling the Barbarian's contract to Bobby "the Brain" Heenan and the Warlord to Slick. They would reunite later in Japan some years later and still fight to this day.
