This show holds a lot of sentimental value for me, and sadly outside of the main event and awesome Midnights v. Midnights showdown there’s not a lot of great wrestling here to back that up. Jack Victory was brought in as his replacement and the match went forward. Eaton finally misses a blind charge to make him face-in-peril, and it’s the crushing irony of Bobby Eaton having to play Ricky Morton. History Dennis Condrey, Randy Rose and Norvell Austin (1980–1983) In 1980 a new team was formed in Southeast Championship Wrestling In an attempt to throw Rose and Condrey off, Austin adopted the masked persona of "The Shadow" and together with Brad Armstrong defeated Condrey and Rose for the title on May 4, 1981. Dennis Condrey was born in Florence, Alabama, and started wrestling in 1973 in the Tennessee area, wrestling for promoter Nick Gulas. The heel fans in the audience REALLY just want to see Dr. Death come in and beat the shit out of people. Tremendous. Unbelievable energy from everyone here, as they had a hot angle and ran with it. Delayed suplex gets two. After the Bicentennial Kings broke up in 1979, Condrey formed the Big C's with Don Carson. Flair was actually told specifically to go over clean as a sheet, but he insisted on cheating to keep Luger strong. and Mr. Wrestling II. You can’t say they didn’t give them time, but the heels were having no part of selling anything for the Fantastics here and they just didn’t mesh at all. He moved on to Alabama's Southeast Championship Wrestling and formed the Midnight Express in 1981 with Randy Rose and Norvell Austin. Three months later, he would win the NWA Tri-State Heavyweight Championship. (And then a short time later, the WWE Network was a thing and I can just watch it whenever I want…), US Tag titles: The Fantastics v. Steve Williams & Kevin Sullivan, This was previously announced as the Fantastics defending the belts against the Sheepherders, but a WWF talent raid changed that plan. He would also wrestle in the Mid-Atlantic area as well. Jim Crockett, Jr. already had a problem with Condrey due to his previous overnight disappearance and Scott had previous animosity with Rose, so Scott's appearance as top booker made for the catalyst to bury both teams and the feud. That does nothing, and Flair runs away again. Career. In 1988, they went to Jim Crockett Promotions. The feud with the Road Warriors included a high-profile Scaffold Match at Starrcade 1986, which the Midnight Express lost. Belly to belly suplex looks to finish, but Doc rings the bell and Teddy Long thinks that it’s a time limit draw.
