Posted September 22, 201411 yr comment_5627744 They were great in the AWA against Rose & Somers. They were the highlight of the late 80s early 90s WWF tag team scene. Should do well on my final list.
September 26, 201411 yr comment_5628829 A great tag team. The only thing that might hurt them on people's lists is that they were never the team in the WWE. Tt's a shame they were never awarded the belts, because they should have been (ignoring the unfortunate rope break match with The Hart Foundation, of course). I wonder if they would have fared better in WCW? Obviously, the stars aligned for at least Shawn in the WWF, so I know he wouldn't want to change anything. But it is interesting to wonder "what if?" about The Rockers and WCW.
November 9, 201410 yr comment_5638750 Terrific team. The Rock'n Roll updated. Shawn Michaels at his peak (controversial opinion, but there you go). Pretty good longevity too all things considered.
June 4, 201510 yr comment_5672781 The Rockers were before my time, but I've been doing some catching up on their work in the WWF and they've really been impressing me. They were a fantastic babyface team. Fast-paced, exciting offense, lots of great double team moves, great at gaining sympathy during FIP segments, awesome hot tag sequences. Pretty much everything I want in a babyface tag team. I still have some more of their WWF work to delve into, plus their AWA stuff, but if they keep impressing me like this they have a real shot of making it into my top ten. And their stuff is driving up my stock of Shawn Michaels, who was just a really great tag wrestler.
June 4, 201510 yr comment_5672826 You're in for a treat. The Rockers do things in AWA that you would not have believed possible based on their WWF run. At least that's how I felt when I got into it.

June 6, 201510 yr comment_5673283 Best regular WWF tag team of all time. Tremendous in the AWA. Will make my top ten, could conceivably make my top five.
June 6, 201510 yr comment_5673292 My absolute favorite wrestlers when I was 9. No one except for Pillman was close, and even then, he was only close.
June 30, 201510 yr comment_5682319 It's between them and the Fantastics for me as my favorite team from the time period, and I think that the Rose/Somers feud might be better than RnR/Midnights for me, too. Easy Top 10, maybe even Top 5.
