So I think while he and Talia worked together, Bane was more of the go get stuff done portion of the team, while Talia worked up the actual plan.

He's more than just a mercenary or a gun for hire. Mercenaries don't usually sign up when the mission involves them dieing. But when you bring in Talia at the end of the movie it does make Bane seem like a weaker character. I thought he was really bad ass when it looked like he was the master mind behind the whole plot. You take that away from him by adding another villain and he just ends up being the muscle.
