SYLVAN GRENIER
Height: 6 foot
Weight: 235 pounds
From: Paris, France
Career Highlights: World Tag Team Champion
Sylvan Grenier has good looks, impressive athletic abilities, and an overabundance of arrogance. But then again, Grenier is French, so his
condescending attitude toward all his RAW competitors is to be expected. Grenier and his tag team partner, Rene Dupree, form La Resistance. The two
are intent on proving their superiority over not just their opponents, but over Americans in general.
Grenier's good looks are what first caught the eye of WWE officials. He has an extensive modeling background, and also excelled in numerous sports,
such as hockey, baseball and tennis before selecting an in-ring career.
RENE DUPREE
Height: 6 foot 3
Weight: 250 pounds
From: Paris, France
Career Highlights: World Tag Team Champion
One half of one of the best young tag teams in WWE, La Resistance, Rene Dupree has focused on two things,tag team gold and his hatred of the United
States. While many will doubt his character because Dupree is French, few will doubt that he has the attributes to be a Superstar for a long time to
come.
Dupree, the youngest of RAW's Superstars, is the son of a wrestling promoter and wrestled his first professional match at the age of 14. He also has
competed as a bodybuilder, winning a prestigious national tournament to qualify for competition against the best in the world. But Dupree shelved his
bodybuilding career to come to WWE, and he made an immediate impact when La Resistance captured the World Tag Team Championship at Bad Blood 2003. The
victory made Dupree the youngest World Tag Team Champion in WWE history. While he may not be popular because of his political views and actions
against the U.S., make no mistake that Dupree has earned his meteoric rise in WWE and has the potential to stay near the top for a long time to come.
