This was a good match. We see an opening shine sequence with the MX using their teamwork to keep the advantage. I loved how they set up the heat segment on Lane. I liked the finish of the match too.

The Original Midnight Express ("Loverboy" Dennis Condrey & "Ravishing" Randy Rose) vs. The Midnight Express ("Beautiful" Bobby Eaton & "Sweet" Stan Lane) (1/1/89)

Cornette is wanting to fight Paul E. before the match and they are dressed for it since the Managers Bunkhouse Stampede was on the card. This is a brawl at the bell with Lane giving Rose an atomic drop on a steel chair as the highlight. OMX get dominated early by the MX as Eaton & Lane look very strong on offense using great double-team moves to keep OMX off balanced. Cornette mocking Paul E. at ringside was great and it was fun watching the teams try and go after the opposing manager. Lane going for a monkey flip on Rose only to get raked in the eyes by Condrey gave the OMX the chance they needed to get on offense. Lane was solid as the FIP as the OMX were strong at working him over with Lane selling and bumping well for them. Lane eventually got the hot tag to Eaton who ran wild as the crowd went nuts and the OMX looked in deep trouble as Lane joined the fray. Cornette & Paul E. joined the fun and as that happened Condrey got a foreign object and used it to KO Eaton for the win. This was a really good match and a fairly easy nomination.
