Allied Powers was a short-lived professional wrestling tag team in World Wrestling Federation that consisted of Lex Luger and The British Bulldog.

History

Starting up

Allied Powers was formed after the Royal Rumble (1995) when Lex Luger and British Bulldog wanted to take their revenge with Shawn Michaels over their eliminations. They united and became a tag team. They defeated Blu Brothers at WrestleMania XI and went on to defeat several teams.

World Tag Team Title Shot

Allied Powers received a title shot for the WWF Tag Team Championship against Owen Hart and Yokozuna on In Your House: 2 but unluckily lost the match.

Ending

Later, the tag team broke up when Bulldog turned on Luger and joined James E. Cornette's heel Camp Cornette stable and later, Luger left the company for WCW.
