I remember picking up this set at Toys R Us. I was all in on Classic Superstars for the first few sets, until series 4 when I never could find Yokozuna. I started seeing people post finding these on the wrestling figures message boards. So we went to our nearest Toys R Us, which was about an hour or so away. But they didn’t have them on the pegs. I saw a Jakks box up on the riser shelf and asked a worker if I could see what was in it. (Yes, on this day I was one of those, I hate doing that but like I said, I lived an hour away and didn’t wanna risk missing out). He opened the box and it was the Tag Team wave series 1. So I walked out of Toys R Us with the Hart Foundation, Legion of Doom , and the Rockers. Such a strong first wave of figures! I always wanted the Demolition 2 pack to hang beside these, but never found it. Had to settle for the single card releases of Demolition.
It's criminal that we haven't gotten any more Rockers 2 packs or even individually as part of one of the MANY single figures sets that have been dropped over the years. We did get Shawn Rocker Michaels in the Retrofest set but no Jannetty which I thought was odd but again, legends deals and legal stuff. Rockers in their WrestleMania 6 attire here. These with LOD and the Harts dropped during a period when I wasn't looking into wrestling figures. I remember going to the TRU in Orlando and seeing these guys along with LOD and Harts on the wall, and they had about 20 of each. Didn't think much of it until a few months later and saw the ridiculous prices they were commanding and I kicked myself for awhile for passing on all three teams.
I know we've gotten Rocker Shawn Michaels in the Elite line before. I think it was part of the Gamestop exclusive Retro fest line they had for a little bit. It would be cool if we got The Rockers in the Elite line. No they weren't tag champs to me b/c the match where they were supposed to win messed up and they never tried to give them another shot.
If Marty Jannetty kept himself in line after the breakup on the Barber shop I would have liked to seen Shawn win at wrestlemania 8. Marty win at Summer slam 92. After Shawn won the intercontinental championship from the British bulldog Marty win the championship at Royal rumble 93. Shawn regain the championship at wrestlemania 9.. then Shawn wins a steel cage intercontinental championship match at Summer slam 93 to ultimately win the fued
I always hated seeing these guys wrestle... I felt like they were trying to be a new Rock n Roll Express, which was "IMPOSSIBLE" ... anybody remember that old tag team The Dirty White Boys and their awesome intro music

I remember them winning the belts at a house show but because the rope broke they gave the belts back to to the Harts
