The Tribunal was a villainous professional wrestling tag team, which consisted of Basile Baraka and Baron Dax. They spent time in WWE, in the developmental territory NXT and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
In December 2013, Sylvester Lefort and Marcus Louis formed a tag team under the name The Legionnaires playing up a gimmick based on their French heritage. They made their debut as a tag team on December 19, 2013 in a triple threat tag team elimination match against Colin Cassady and Angelo Dawkins, and The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor), which was won by Cassady and Dawkins. On the May 8, 2014 episode of NXT, The Legionnaires were defeated by Kalisto and El Local. On August 21 episode of NXT, The Legionnaires began a feud with Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady losing to them in a tag team match. On September 11, Lefort faced Enzo Amore in a Hair vs Hair match at NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way and was defeated, but did not adhere to the stipulation post-match and instead ran away, leaving his partner Marcus Louis to be shaved bald instead. The following weeks Lefort and Louis tried to get revenge on Amore and Cassady. On the October 16 episode of NXT, Louis finally snapped and turned on Lefort and attacked him during a tag match. On February 5, 2016, Lefort and Louis were released from their WWE contract.
