ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
ENTRANCE MUSIC:
"Glorious Domination" by CFO$
RING ATTIRE:
Julian wears red tights with a massive yellow vertical stripe on both outside legs and a red logo featuring a lion and a rose inside those stripes; red boots; and red and yellow shoulder-length, finger-less gloves. Betsy wears the exact same ring attire that Jamie Hayter does, with the exception of her robe often sporting the United Kingdom flag and the rest of her gear having more cotton candy pink highlights.
RING ENTRANCE:
The lights go out. Maria's voice rings throughout the arena as she introduces in Spanish the "Lady Gallagher and El Guapo, Julian Tijerrrrrrrrriiiiiiinnaa!!!" As "Glorious Domination" by CFO$ plays, the lights go back on, and we see Betsy with her robe on, in the middle of the ramp, with her back to the crowd. "El Guapo" comes out, holding a rose, with the lovely Maria. Betsy stretches her arms to either side, letting the robe fall slightly down her back, exposing her shoulders, but still being mostly worn while Julian takes the time to sniff his rose before pivoting slowly for the benefit of the crowd and offering the rose to Maria on one knee. When he gets back up to his feet, he offers an arm but Betsy interrupts them by walking straight to the ring, with Julian shrugging and following her lead. Maria is left to follow them from behind while sniffing Julian's rose like a lovesick high schooler.
Julian slides under the bottom rope to get in the ring while Betsy enters in a more traditional way, pointing and waving at the crowd. Julian then gracefully climbs the turnbuckle, where he poses and blows kisses at the girls in the crowd, while Betsy flexes in the middle of the ring. Afterward, Julian meets Betsy in the middle of the ring, where Betsy offers him her hand to kiss, and then the two wait for their opponents to join them in the ring.

Maria is left to follow them from behind while sniffing Julian's rose like a lovesick high schooler.

TEAM BACKGROUND
TEAM DYNAMIC:
Betsy is the muscle of this tag team while Julian provides the style and the shenanigans. While Julian toes the line separating the face attributes and the heel tactics, forgiven only by his charm and wit, Betsy never gets distracted from getting the win through fair play. Both of them do like to play for the crowd but have different reasons: Julian likes the attention while Betsy wants to inspire others. Most of the time, Julian is the one getting beaten around by their opponents, as he's the one who often gets outsmarted and outclassed due to his pride and naivete, while Betsy gets the hot tag and the win after a destructive power move. Simply put, Julian is the opener while Betsy is most definitely the closer.
STRENGTHS:
1. Differing styles make for good coverage.
2. Both have great stamina that allow them to last pretty long in the ring.
3. Both are well-versed in heel tactics, even though Betsy never uses them, which makes them hard to outsmart.
WEAKNESSES:
1. Both are terrible in hardcore matches.
2. Both are relatively inexperienced when it comes to tagging with each other.
3. Maria.
TAUNTS/MANNERISMS:
1. Crown's Up!
2. Betsy carrying Julian like he's her bride and he's too tranquilo not to like it
