History[]
Formation and re-boot[]
On the May 5, 2015 episode of Main Event, Damien Sandow adopted a new "Macho Mandow" gimmick reminiscent of Savage's, with the same entrance music and similar attire. He then wrestled a match against Curtis Axel, whose "Axelmania" gimmick had elements similar to Hogan's; however, the match was interrupted by The Ascension. On the May 11, 2015 episode of Raw, they had a rematch and were again interrupted by The Ascension; this time they fought off The Ascension together, and then shared a handshake reminiscent of the original Mega Powers. At Payback, "The Mega Powers" were defeated by The Ascension.
On June 24, 2015, due to the Hulk Hogan racial controversy, The "Mega Powers" angle has been dropped, and they have reverted to their previous gimmicks.
