If the Rock n Roll Express are in the WWE Hall of Fame, it is a travesty that the Midnight Express is not. If anyone were to ask Ricky Morton or Robert Gibson, I'm sure they would say the same thing.
It’s Cornette and Stan that say no. Because when you go in you have to sign a legends contract and wwe gets some say as to what you can and can’t do. Cornette has talked about it a few times
When did Bobby die!!???? I didn’t hear about it which is disappointing because I hear the wrestling news when they say “X indie wrestling star died” and I’m like “WHO?” but they don’t say anything about a legend like Beautiful Bobby Eaton (he may of not been beautiful on the outside but from what everyone says he was beautiful on the inside and was one of the nicest guys ever in wrestling)
I’ve just read that he died just over a month after his wife died, it’s funny as some people do die very quickly after their husband/wife/love of their life dies and maybe with all his health problems seeing Donna die of breast cancer (nothing worse than seeing a loved one die from cancer) he couldn’t go on with life 😢
That Eaton legdrop from the top looks a really risky thing to do for Eaton, and on the opponent ot looks devastating. Yet all the wresylers lauded Bobby as one of the easiest,,safest and best to work against. Class act, gone to soon.
I honestly think more about that dance than I do the Midnight Express matches when I hear this song. Even in the FTR theme song. I'm willing to search the WWE Network for Midnight Express matches.
Imagine a match between The Midnight Express, Beautiful Bobby Eaton and Sweet Stan Lane, with Jim Cornette against The Hart Foundation, Bret Hitman Hart and Jim The Anvil Neidhart, with Jimmy Hart.
As accomplished as the Road Warriors, the Dudley Boyz And the Hart Foundation among other tag teams are, this version of The Midnight Express is the GREATEST TAG TEAM OF ALL TIME!!!!
thats why cornette was there, it allowed the guys he worked with to excel even if they werent good talkers. Thats why being a manager was so important. Even guys who can talk just get so much better if they have that mouthpiece available.
I agree. A mouthpiece is a great thing to have in case a wrestler is lacking in promo skills, but has the wrestling side down. Bobby is a great example, so is Road Dogg. Billy Gun was/is great as a wrestler, Road dog balanced them out, he was lacking a bit as a wrestler, but damn could he talk.
This version of “The Midnight Express” theme was way cooler than the original. I heard that Beautiful Bobby had something to do with the making of it. Unfortunately, Jim Cornette hated it because he thought it was something out of a porno film. Who cares. This version will always be the greatest wrestling theme ever.
Yep! Midnight Express with Dennis, Midnight Express with Stan, Dangerous Alliance with Arn, Blue Bloods with Regal....truly the definition of a tag team specialist.
One of if not the best Tag Team in wrestling bar non I predicted that The Midnight Express be in the 2023 WWE Hall of Fame and have The Rock N Roll Express induce them
I have a feeling it will be in 2024 in Philadelphia. The rock and Austin endorsed it and it’s an easier place for the three surviving members to travel to. Also now that the boebert thing is cleared up finally that might make stan more likely to make a brief return
Wow ! The different battles they had with the Rock n Roll Express, The Road Warriors, The Fantastics, The Horsemen (Blanchard & Anderson), The Freebirds(Hayes Garvin)... just to name a few.
With all due respect to "Lover Boy" Dennis Condrey, this is my favorite version of The Midnight Express: "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton and "Sweet" Stan Lane, "The Gangster of Love."😂
Both versions of the Jim Cornette's Midnight Express were great. Bobby and Stan were a flashier, high spot team. Dennis and Bobby were a more traditional, heat getting team. Dennis Condrey was a great worker and heel. I think the Dennis/Bobby version is underappreciated.
Best Blow-off of the Midnight vs Midnight Feud? Reunion of Dennis w/Bobby and Stan + Corny 😂 kick Randy Rose's Ass and Paul E. Dangerously out of the NWA/WCW. A new Midnight Trio that could tag under "Freebird Rules".....
Rest in peace Bobby. My favorite tag team, theme, manager...Corney won't kiss anybody's ass,elsewise they would in the Hall, undoubtedly. Jim Ross speculated that it had to be Jim's outspokenness, because he could think of no other reason. I just got my action figure box with Dennis,Bobby, Stan and Jim and it's BEAUTIFUL. I feel like a kid again!! ❤
Phantastische Sportler , echte Typen. Mein Lieblings Tag Team überhaupt. Nur dieses Manager Getue von Cornette hat mich extrem genervt . Stan und Bobby haben meistehraft gefightet
One of the best tag rivalries in wrestling history, Might Night Express/Rock N Roll Express With that said. Why have they not been inducted into the Hall of Fame while the Rock N Roll Express has been?
Regardless of your opinions on Jim Cornette, this song is an absolute banger (really awesome custom titantron, too!) I also realised that I dance exactly like Stan Lane in some of these clips.
I think is time to put this team in the WWE hall of fame, multiple time NWA World Tag Team champions, Multiple times US Tag Team champions, AWA world Tag Team champions plus the only team i know that has 3 finishing moves.
I wonder if Stan Lane continues to wrestle further into the 1990s if Bobby Eaton had left WCW with Cornette and Lane? Not trying to undersell Tom Pritchard but Lane was definitely still young enough to wrestle at the SMW level until that promotion closed about 2.5 years after he retired and perhaps still teaming with Beautiful Bobby gives him the incentive to at least continue his career until SMW closes.
I would pit this Legendary Icon team vs any WWE tag team in history and imo the best WWE tag team is the Heartfoundation Brett Hit man Hart and Jim the anvil Neighart. And the Midnight Express would beat them with ease.
Shawn Michaels better have named his "sweet chin music" in tribute of Sweet Stan. All I'm saying. When I was little, I loved the rock and roll express. As I got older I saw the difference.
I preferred Sweet Stan to Loverboy Dennis as well I preferred this version of their theme tune to Dennis and Bobby coming out to the Chase tune which is on the Midnight Express soundtrack
Ladies and Gentlemen, introducing the team responsible for more broken homes than Hurricane Hugo, From The Darkside, Sweet Stan, Beautiful Bobby, THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS
I once saw a girl wearing sweatpants with long stripes at work and this song immediately popped into my head. Her hair wasn't quite as blonde as Bobby's though.
If the Rock n Roll Express are in the WWE Hall of Fame, it is a travesty that the Midnight Express is not. If anyone were to ask Ricky Morton or Robert Gibson, I'm sure they would say the same thing.
Because they would also have to induct Cornette
One of the GOAT in tag team they will wait until they are all dead the remaining 3 members of the 4
I'm sure they would care if the WWE Hall of Fame actually meant something.
It’s Cornette and Stan that say no. Because when you go in you have to sign a legends contract and wwe gets some say as to what you can and can’t do. Cornette has talked about it a few times
Jim cornette wouldn't kiss vince's ass
One of the greatest rivalries back in the day. Midnight express vs the rock n roll express. RIP beautiful Bobby
When did Bobby die!!???? I didn’t hear about it which is disappointing because I hear the wrestling news when they say “X indie wrestling star died” and I’m like “WHO?” but they don’t say anything about a legend like Beautiful Bobby Eaton (he may of not been beautiful on the outside but from what everyone says he was beautiful on the inside and was one of the nicest guys ever in wrestling)
I’ve just read that he died just over a month after his wife died, it’s funny as some people do die very quickly after their husband/wife/love of their life dies and maybe with all his health problems seeing Donna die of breast cancer (nothing worse than seeing a loved one die from cancer) he couldn’t go on with life 😢
Bobby Eaton died?
@@khalilismail666 yeah
Love em or hate em, this was the best version of the midnight express tag team.
I was a fan of the Bobby & Dennis version, nonetheless the Bobby & Stan version was decient too.
I agree.
Condrey and Eaton were better.
lane was a good replacement.@@30907bng
I was a little kid with Bobby and Stan
However , Stan moved into the house that Dennis BUILT.
Dennis & Bobby with Jimmy will forever be the greatest.
All of you are dead wrong. The greatest version of the Midnight Express was Dennis Condrey & Randy Rose with Paul E in their corner!
That Eaton legdrop from the top looks a really risky thing to do for Eaton, and on the opponent ot looks devastating.
Yet all the wresylers lauded Bobby as one of the easiest,,safest and best to work against.
Class act, gone to soon.
Stan was killing that snake move!
Fo real when I hear this song I start to do that lol
I honestly think more about that dance than I do the Midnight Express matches when I hear this song. Even in the FTR theme song.
I'm willing to search the WWE Network for Midnight Express matches.
Apparently Stan was quite the ladies man.
@@rhondawhite1396thats on wcw nwa their match banger alway
That's why they called him "Sweet" Stan
Cornette was awesome on the mic.
His tennis racket gimmick was fabulous.
Great theme.
Now I can see why FTR has a similar theme in AEW.
Imagine a match between The Midnight Express, Beautiful Bobby Eaton and Sweet Stan Lane, with Jim Cornette against The Hart Foundation, Bret Hitman Hart and Jim The Anvil Neidhart, with Jimmy Hart.
3 legends, and a legendary theme that buries itself in your mind
This song never gets old that I have it as my ringtone and alarm.
Same here love this song
Who is it?
@@robbiemiller5800 it was done by Giorgio Moroder.
No it doesn't my favorite tag team and wrestling theme song of all time!!
@@robbiemiller5800 Giorgio Moroder - Chase
It was the Theme from the Movie "Midnight Express"
Beautiful Bobby, Sweet Stan Lane, J.C, and Momma funding the entire operation.
0:17 cornette hitting the strut with every fiber in his being lol
This track changed my life.
As accomplished as the Road Warriors, the Dudley Boyz And the Hart Foundation among other tag teams are, this version of The Midnight Express is the GREATEST TAG TEAM OF ALL TIME!!!!
I like all the teams you mentioned, but let's not forget that the term "Road Warrior Pop" exists for a reason.
I agree wholeheartedly!
Most definitely
R.I.P. Bobby Eaton, and Bubba Rogers
Now this is a tagteam!
I'd love to have seen them against the British Bulldogs.
That Alabama Jam and Sweet Stans kicks!!!
Beautiful Bobby didn't do a lot of talkin but man was he clean in the ring🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 his moves was so smooth
He was horrible on the mic. It was a cheesy train wreck to hear him with the mic.
But your right, he was so clean in the ring.
thats why cornette was there, it allowed the guys he worked with to excel even if they werent good talkers. Thats why being a manager was so important. Even guys who can talk just get so much better if they have that mouthpiece available.
@@stevecanham1145 💯💯💯
I agree.
A mouthpiece is a great thing to have in case a wrestler is lacking in promo skills, but has the wrestling side down.
Bobby is a great example, so is Road Dogg. Billy Gun was/is great as a wrestler, Road dog balanced them out, he was lacking a bit as a wrestler, but damn could he talk.
favorite wrestling theme of all time. reminds me of my childhood as a wrestling fan.
I watched this 2 times back 2 back. Great.
Greatest tag team to ever lace up a pair of boots!
Damn straight.
My bad the legion of doom oh yea the legion of doom
Those blonde mullet’s looks strong and fabulous! The Song is cool too 😊
Stan Lane wore a wig. No joke. Look it up.
Poetry in motion!! If not the Best, one of the greatest Tag Teams top to bottom in all of Pro Wrestling!
The Midnight Express vs The Rock n Roll express was a mutherfukin Saturday night event!
And when you add Arn Anderson/Tully Blanchard and the road warriors you had the greatest tag team division
This version of “The Midnight Express” theme was way cooler than the original.
I heard that Beautiful Bobby had something to do with the making of it.
Unfortunately, Jim Cornette hated it because he thought it was something out of a porno film.
Who cares. This version will always be the greatest wrestling theme ever.
I agree. I like this version better.
I have to say Bobby Eaton is the best tagteam wrestler ever… put him with anybody and you’ll create an awesome tag team
Pure fact!👏🤘
Yep! Midnight Express with Dennis, Midnight Express with Stan, Dangerous Alliance with Arn, Blue Bloods with Regal....truly the definition of a tag team specialist.
@@jonathanturbide2232 when he teamed up with Steve Regal it was totally overlooked, and totally underrated
Here they are Beautiful Bobby and Sweet Stan the Midnight Express
GREATEST THEME EVER!!!!
One of greatest tag teams of all time. My childhood!
This has been my ringtone for the past three years.
One of if not the best Tag Team in wrestling bar non I predicted that The Midnight Express be in the 2023 WWE Hall of Fame and have The Rock N Roll Express induce them
Should have been done years ago while Bobby was alive.
Well maybe they will get into the Hall Of Fame next year when Wrestlemania 40 is in Philadelphia, PA and Philadelphia loves the Midnight Express.
I have a feeling it will be in 2024 in Philadelphia. The rock and Austin endorsed it and it’s an easier place for the three surviving members to travel to. Also now that the boebert thing is cleared up finally that might make stan more likely to make a brief return
Wow ! The different battles they had with the Rock n Roll Express, The Road Warriors, The Fantastics, The Horsemen (Blanchard & Anderson), The Freebirds(Hayes Garvin)... just to name a few.
Beautiful Bobby and Sweet Stan THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS!
When I get divorced, I'm walking out of court with this theme song
Didn’t Cornette get Lane a job in the WWE as an interviewer or something like that?
Yes he did.
With all due respect to "Lover Boy" Dennis Condrey, this is my favorite version of The Midnight Express: "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton and "Sweet" Stan Lane, "The Gangster of Love."😂
Midnight Express vs. Beverly Brothers would have been the greatest wrestling match in history.
The best tag team of all time. And the Lane/Eaton combo was far better than the Condrey/Eaton duo. Rip Bobby
Both versions of the Jim Cornette's Midnight Express were great. Bobby and Stan were a flashier, high spot team. Dennis and Bobby were a more traditional, heat getting team. Dennis Condrey was a great worker and heel. I think the Dennis/Bobby version is underappreciated.
@@blairbeale7673 I agree, 100% with everything you just said
Stan Lane was actually Steve Keirn's favourite tag team partner. Remember he was a fabulous one before turning into a heel with the Midnight Express.
100%
Great video 🔥
Best. Tag Team. Ever. And it’s not even close
💯 INCORRECT.
and it ain’t close.
BEST TAG TEAM EVER!!!
Best Blow-off of the Midnight vs Midnight Feud? Reunion of Dennis w/Bobby and Stan + Corny 😂 kick Randy Rose's Ass and Paul E. Dangerously out of the NWA/WCW.
A new Midnight Trio that could tag under "Freebird Rules".....
WWE Hall of Fame bound 🎉 my prediction. Class of 2023
Beautiful Bobby & Sweet Stan Top 5 tag team of all time
Rest in peace Bobby. My favorite tag team, theme, manager...Corney won't kiss anybody's ass,elsewise they would in the Hall, undoubtedly. Jim Ross speculated that it had to be Jim's outspokenness, because he could think of no other reason. I just got my action figure box with Dennis,Bobby, Stan and Jim and it's BEAUTIFUL. I feel like a kid again!! ❤
Phantastische Sportler , echte Typen. Mein Lieblings Tag Team überhaupt. Nur dieses Manager Getue von Cornette hat mich extrem genervt . Stan und Bobby haben meistehraft gefightet
Stan lane was a true karate master with that super kick
One of the best theme songs wit one of the best team tags and one of the best managers of all time
*Midnight Express* along with Jim Cornette and Big Bubba. What a team!
This brings back memories
This makes me remind AEW's FTR theme song
That's because ftr was paying tribute to this team. Jim cornette even spoke about it on his podcast.
One of the best tag rivalries in wrestling history, Might Night Express/Rock N Roll Express
With that said. Why have they not been inducted into the Hall of Fame while the Rock N Roll Express has been?
That's greatness
My top tag teams
Midnight express
Free birds
Hollywood blondes
Outsiders
Bam bam Terry Gordy dr death
If all the themes ever used in wrestling, this is still my all time favorite
Beautiful Bobby and Sweet Stan
Badass theme.
One of the all time greatest
I did the snake move yesterday and got the attention of 2 gorgeous ladies 😅😂
I like this better than their official tron
Regardless of your opinions on Jim Cornette, this song is an absolute banger (really awesome custom titantron, too!) I also realised that I dance exactly like Stan Lane in some of these clips.
I think is time to put this team in the WWE hall of fame, multiple time NWA World Tag Team champions, Multiple times US Tag Team champions, AWA world Tag Team champions plus the only team i know that has 3 finishing moves.
The second best tag team ever. Road Warriors #1
My childhood memories Debbie Eaton, Bobby's sister makes sure her brother is not forgotten but we fans are getting older, old wrasslin was bettee
Awesome theme
THE greatest tag team of all time.
I wonder if Stan Lane continues to wrestle further into the 1990s if Bobby Eaton had left WCW with Cornette and Lane?
Not trying to undersell Tom Pritchard but Lane was definitely still young enough to wrestle at the SMW level until that promotion closed about 2.5 years after he retired and perhaps still teaming with Beautiful Bobby gives him the incentive to at least continue his career until SMW closes.
A remake of the original song, but it still bumps!
SummerSlam 23' it's the beginning of Solo vs Cody and the solo introduces his new Wiseman!....Jim cornette
Ladies and Gentelmen! "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton and "Sweet" Stan Lane! THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS!!!!
I would pit this Legendary Icon team vs any WWE tag team in history and imo the best WWE tag team is the Heartfoundation Brett Hit man Hart and Jim the anvil Neighart. And the Midnight Express would beat them with ease.
Shawn Michaels better have named his "sweet chin music" in tribute of Sweet Stan. All I'm saying. When I was little, I loved the rock and roll express. As I got older I saw the difference.
Greatest tag team of all times
The best song ever of wrestling
I just noticed FTR’s AEW theme is paying homage this ☝🏼.
I preferred Sweet Stan to Loverboy Dennis as well I preferred this version of their theme tune to Dennis and Bobby coming out to the Chase tune which is on the Midnight Express soundtrack
Ladies and Gentlemen, introducing the team responsible for more broken homes than Hurricane Hugo, From The Darkside, Sweet Stan, Beautiful Bobby, THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS
Should of been inducted in the Hall of Fame this year.
They should be along time ago
MIDNIGHT EXPRESS YEAH BABY
Man, Bobby was really one of the best workers…. ever!!
That Alabama Jam was LETHAL
Giorgio Moroder - Chase
It was the Theme from the Movie "Midnight Express"
My all time favorite tag team in NWA/WCW
I want to use this for the Little League team I coach on intro song.
My favorite wrestling tag team of all time. Sent my brother to the hospital trying to do the Rocket Launcher
That begs the question of how. Please share the story. Leave out no details.
Good day for Sweet Stan, the gangster of love. He just proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Lauren Boebert isn’t his kid!!!!
My favorite tag team from the 80's and my favorite theme from the 80's
I once saw a girl wearing sweatpants with long stripes at work and this song immediately popped into my head. Her hair wasn't quite as blonde as Bobby's though.
Greatest tag team of alltime
Damn..what a great time.
They might not have been the All Time greatest as Road Warriors get that nod. But they are my All Time Favorite.
Wrecking more homes than Hurricane Hugo. The Midnight Express.
This sort of has high definition.
GOAT tag-team.
The Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane)
3-time NWA United States Tag Team Champions
Former NWA World Tag Team Champions
national treasures, all of them
Get them the HOF! Rest in peace bobby and bubba 🕯️
What an entrance theme.
They should be in The Hall of Fame
So that's where FTR gets their theme from. #AEW
Imagine if we could’ve got the midnight express(in their prime) vs FTR
God, I Miss Bobby
