Midnight Express vs. The Fantastics (2/3 falls)

- The 1st fall is all about giving the Fans the shine and I think I like the Lane MX vs. Fans much more than Condrey MX vs. Fans. However, I think Condrey MX worked better with the RNR. The ending saw the MX take over but Rogers caught Lane with a flash small package. The 2nd fall picks up with the MX on offense and Lane and Eaton are just monsters. I guess Eaton had discovered the backbreaker because he is doing all kinds of backbreaker variations. Fulton tries to fight off the MX to make a tag but Cornette comes in and whacks him with the racquet to give the MX to tie it up. The third fall doesn't last long as the MX abuse Fulton some more but he gets a lucky pinfall after Bobby Eaton falls back and he was in the right position to win the match. After the match, the MX lay waste to the Fans. I really enjoyed this match. THere were some dead spots when the Fans were in control but the 2nd fall was solid gold.

I'll give this a solid nomination. A lot of neat stuff and of course plenty of tag team psychology. The 1st fall we see a great Fantastics shine. Fulton throwing hands was great . He really should be talked about with some if the great punchers. I loved the trapping of Lane when they ran up and down. The finish of the 2nd fall was great. Ref missed the hot tag. Gets distracted by putting Rogers out. Cornette in with a racket. The punch exchange between Fulton and Eaton was gold. 3rd fall was quick .

2 out of 3 Falls Match for the US Tag Titles: The Fantastics (Bobby Fulton & Tommy Rogers) © vs. The Midnight Express ("Beautiful" Bobby Eaton & "Sweet" Stan Lane) (6/10/88)

Great seeing these teams face off in Houston again and in the 1st fall the Fants look great just taking it to the MX with the rope running spot with Lane and the Fants being the highlight of the fall. 2nd fall saw the MX take control and they really took it to both Fants here. Cornette was also getting involved a lot more in this fall including the finish where he whacked Fulton in the back with the racquet causing him to get pinned. The 3rd fall saw the MX continue beating on Fulton but he would get a quick cradle counter on an Eaton pinfall to win the fall which was a cool finish. Cornette then beat them down with the racquet after the match. The match was pretty damn good and moves forward fairly easily.
