Behind the scenes in WWE, a war is brewing between two separate factions. The two are destined to go head-to-head in a battle for supremacy. In the coming week, one of these two brands will establish their dominance over the other and come away with the ultimate bragging rights. In a competition that has been seemingly building for months, a team from UpUpDownDown will face off against a team representing LeftRightLeftRight.
In 2015, Xavier Woods, aka Austin Creed, created UpUpDownDown, as a spotlight for his love of video games. Since then, the channel has slowly grown and regularly features many familiar faces backstage. The YouTube channel passed the 1 million subscribers mark in March 2017, and passed 2 million subscribers in September 2019.
Tyler Breeze first flirted with the idea of a breakaway faction called LeftRighLeftRight in 2016, but the idea was quashed at first. In November 2019, a faction called LeftRightLeftRight began appearing on UpUpDownDown's YouTube channel and featured stars from NXT. While relatively harmonious at first, the tension between the two factions escalated when Tyler Breeze defeated Alexa Bliss to win the UpUpDownDown title in December 2019.
In January, Cesaro betrayed Woods to align with Breeze and the nascent LeftRightLeftRight faction which also includes Shayna Baszler, Adam Cole, Tegan Knox, Dio Maddin, and Dakota Kai. With the support of his new faction, Breeze has managed to maintain his title reign for almost a year.
So far Breeze has successfully defended his title against the likes of Zelina Vega, The Miz, Jey Uso, and Alexa Bliss. Breeze and his LeftRightLeftRight cohorts also bullied Woods into changing the fifth defense rule, allowing for a game to be chosen at random instead of the traditional challengers pick rule. Breeze further insulted Woods and UpUpDownDown, winning the title and replacing it with a LeftRightLeftRight version.
Xavier Woods recently announced that LeftRightLeftRight would be facing a team from UpUpDownDown around Survivor Series for brand domination. Could the last remnants of UpUpDownDown fall into the hands of LeftRightLeftRight, or will this be the point where UpUpDownDown turns their fate around?
LeftRightLeftRight - Dio Maddin
Dio Madden, aka Shogun, has been featured on videos for both UpUpDownDown and LeftRightLeftRight. Alongside Cole and Breeze, he is one of the longest-serving members of the faction.
Maddin featured on UpUpDownDown's Dungeons and Dragons series Roll Out but has also appeared in most of the LeftRightLeftRight playthroughs. Maddin appeared in the Untitled Goose Game videos, Until Dawn, Overcooked, Brawlhalla, and Halo 5 with other LeftRightLeftRight Superstars.
UpUpDownDown - AJ Styles
AJ Styles, now known as King of Phenomenal, has been a long-time member of the UpUpDownDown roster. He is predominantly featured in the Madden tournaments. Styles is an extremely passionate gamer, who gave Creed a tour of his extensive video game collection for a video of UpUpDownDown.
Styles is also an extremely competitive gamer, which works both to his advantage and his detriment seemingly in equal measures. While Styles seems to always be geared up for a fight, he has also been known to lose his temper and break controllers when things aren't going his way.
LeftRightLeftRight - Tegan Nox
Tegan Nox, aka Lady Kane, is loyal to Team LeftRightLeftRight. The Welsh wrestler made her first appearances when the group played Untitled Goose Game and has made several more appearances.
Austin Creed attempted to lure Nox onto UpUpDownDown during her episode of SuperStar Savepoint but he was unsuccessful. Even though her former friends Candice LaRae and Dakota Kai are both members of LeftRightLeftRight, Nox is still committed to the faction. However, she could potentially turn on them at Survivor Series.
UpUpDownDown - Ember Moon
Despite returning to NXT the last month, Ember Moon, aka Athena, has remained loyal to Team UpUpDownDown. Moon has appeared on the SuperStar Savepoint and Battle of the Brands. She is also a regular member of the UpUpDownDown's Roll Out series.
Ember Moon has been appearing on UpUpDownDown for years, her earliest cameos go back to 2017. Moon faced off against Kofi Kingston in a Mass Effect: Andromeda Challenge and Austin Creed at Super Smash Bros. She was also involved in the Axe Throwing showdown in 2018.
Ember Moon last appeared on the channel five months ago, showing up on an episode of Retro Roulette and a new episode of Superstar Savepoint.
LeftRightLeftRight - Adam Cole
Adam Cole, also known as Chugs, is one of the earliest members of LeftRightLeftRight alongside Tyler Breeze. Cole, a former NXT Champion, is an avid gamer that regularly streams on Twitch where he plays Halo, Resident Evil, and Borderlands
Cole was one of the leaders of the LeftRightLeftRight videos which saw the group play Untitled Goose Game, Halo, and Until Dawn. Cole is also a member of Da Party alongside Austin Creed and fellow members of LeftRightLeftRight Tyler Breeze, and Cesaro. As a member of Da Party, Cole has appeared in the regular episodes of Uno as well as Among Us against the BRE, another faction on the channel.
UpUpDownDown - Samoa Joe
Samoa Joe, also known as Joey Headrocker, is a former UpUpDownDown Champion. Joe defeated Jimmy Uso on the European tour to win the title using the "Power Game". Joe would lose the title to Seth Rollins in a dramatic battle of Arm Wrestling on the Nintendo game, Track and Field.
Joe has been featured prominently on UpUpDownDown over the last few weeks as a spectator in The Miz's attempts to challenge Tyler Breeze for the title. Joe was also a part of the recent Tekken 7 videos where he took on the likes of Shelton Benjamin, Jey Uso, Kofi Kingston, and Austin Creed.
LeftRightLeftRight - Cesaro
Cesaro, also known as Mr. OP, was originally a member of UpUpDownDown before he betrayed Austin Creed and joining LeftRightLeftRight in January 2020. As a reward for his betrayal, Cesaro was given his own talk show called Mr. OPTV. On the first episode, Cesaro clarified why he defected from UpUpDownDown to LeftRightLeftRight.
Cesaro is also a member of Da Party alongside Austin Creed, Tyler Breeze, and Adam Cole. Cesaro has regularly supported Breeze during his title defences, often in the audience cheering on the champion. After Breeze successfully retained the LeftRightLeftRight title for a fifth straight defence, Cesaro hosted a Championship Celebration on UpUpDownDown with fellow members of LeftRightLeftRight.
UpUpDownDown - Baron Corbin
Baron Corbin, also known as Off With Your Head or OWYH, has featured in a variety of different UpUpDownDown video series. Despite the fact that Corbin is close to Breeze as the two run the Sweetz channel together with AEW's Shawn Spears, Corbin is a part of Team UpUpDownDown.
Corbin entered the Madden 2018 and Madden 2020 challenges, losing in the first round in both editions. Corbin was also featured on episodes of Gamer Gauntlet and Superstar Savepoint. He also challenged Zelina Vega in Mortal Kombat and Big E in UFC.
LeftRightLeftRight - Tyler Breeze
LeftRightLeftRight's leader and the current holder of the UpUpDownDown or LRLR title, depending on what you prefer to call it. Tyler Breeze, aka Prince Pretty, has now held the title longer than anyone else and he has more total successful defenses. Breeze has also mentioned the possibility of taking the LeftRightLeftRight title onto WWE television.
After the original idea to start his own channel in 2016, a powerful faction has emerged. Breeze has not only recruited NXT stars like Adam Cole, Tegan Nox, and Dakota Kai, but also managed to steal Cesaro from UpUpDownDown right under Woods' nose.
UpUpDownDown - Xavier Woods
Xavier Woods, aka Austin Creed, is founder and main host of UpUpDownDown. Woods has used the channel to play video games and do other nerdy things with members of the WWE locker room. Under Woods' leadership, UpUpDownDown has managed to pass 2 Million subscribers on YouTube and has brought on guests like Stephanie McMahon and Triple H. Woods has stated that if he reaches 5 Million Subscribers he will try and get WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon onto the channel, as well.
Since the inception of the UpUpDownDown title back in 2018, Woods has tried to be an impartial General Manager. However, his hard work to remain neutral has been tough in the face of the marauders from LeftRightLeftRight and the current champion, Tyler Breeze.
