Why is Air in the name? Air was Bourne's shtick, neither Kingston nor Killings are high flyers.
- Matt Scott
  
  Naw, Kingston never does top rope cross bodies, spring board lariats, standing monkey flips…
- Christ 4 Life
  
  Do you pay attention? Kofi is close to being the biggest high flyer in wrestling history! Did you see his stunt in the Royal Rumble this year?!

Truth in paradise

this is sad. back in the day, all tag teams had names. they should have a name first, get some wins and then get the belts. whenever they don't know what to do with kofi, he gets stuck with the tag belts. such a waste of a talent. please let him win money in the bank.
Andy

R-Boom all the way !!

  Totally Agree!!!!!!!

Why are they tossing Truth and Kofi into a random tag team? Remember last year when Truth was number one contender? They really need to push these two in singles and give the Mid Carders the task of reviving the tag division.

Clearly the only correct names are Jamaican Me Crazy or You Ghana Get Got.
- Dangerous Lee
  
  Great names lol. But remember, kofi stopped being jamaican in 2009.
- hurrigame
  
  You Ghana Get Got…LMAO.
- Dunstan
  
  You Ghana Get Got……pure gold

Why would you even want to combine two names to make some weird tag team name? Think of something original. I remember back 20 years ago when teams had great names. The Rockers, Midnight Express, Rock N Roll Express, Demolition, Legion of Doom. There were the exceptions like Pretty Wonderful, but it used to be cool to be a tag team and have a great name, now you just get made fun of.
- hurrigame
  
  Don't forget the greatest tag team of the Attitude Era: Too Much.
FIELDY

It's gotta be YOU GHANA GET GOT!!!

i guess what i'm saying is, if you can't come up with a good tag name, don't force something stupid. The hardys, edge and christian and the dudleyz weren't incredibly cool tag team names as far as shock value goes, but they were three of the best tag teams ever in the wwe. You don't need to sound cool, you just need to perform well in the ring.

Truth in Paradise sounds to much like a title for a WWE studios film

Kofi Kingston and Killings
or KKK
- Terra Ryzing
  
  I have a feeling that KKK will not go over well with two black wrestlers.

truth n paradise is a win.
2nd vote for jimmy n paradise
Hunter

They're so lazy, creative should come up with a name and gimmick, that their job.
Streamz

Pretty sure Evan Bourne brought the 'air' to the 'air-boom' tag team as a contraction of his nickname "Evan 'air' Bourne".

'R-boom' is about the only logical name on the list.

'Truth in Paradise' logically works too I guess, but it seems too convoluted to imagine JR screaming "truth in paradise! truth in paradise! truth in paradise! By god almighty!"
Brad

What about a take on an old classic: Legion of Boom
Joe O.

Truth In Paradise was my suggestion to Kingston last week on Twitter! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Don't believe me, check my twitter account.

Even though it's closed (the poll,) what about the following?

Just picture David Essex, in his Rock On song, uttering "Jimmy Boom."

Mid-Card Mafia?
