Can listen to Corny for hours. None better. You can hear the emotion in his voice when talking about Bobby. Love him or hate him, you can tell wrestling meant a lot to Corny.

Back when tag teams were TEAMS, and not just two big names with no chemistry thrown together.

I wish Jim would allow somebody to come and digitize EVERY bit of tape that he has in his castle. He has so much irreplaceable relics of the past, and we need to ensure that they live on forever.

Loved watching the Midnight Express as a kid. Their matches were always entertaining. RIP Bobby.

Jimbo is at his best when speaking of wrestling early days he definitely needs a documentary or movie on his life. Rest In Peace Beautiful Bobby Eaton and Donna Dundee Eaton.

Dennis condrey was a massively underrated heel. Loved his work

The Midnight Express is the greatest tag team ever & Corny is the best & funniest manager of all time! 💯

I’ve been watching some old Mid-South lately and the Midnight Express have been phenomenal. Truly an all time great tag team.

Corny is underrating himself in mid-south a bit I feel. He was better than a lot of others just starting out.

THE biggest difference between the days gone by and "modern wrestling" back then it was a brotherhood. RIP Bobby

I think corny is rating his self by maybe his own merit? We all know this man can cut a promo and as I've said before, as natural as breathing. I think he's just being humble.

Cornett needs to give HIMSELF more props.

I love how easy it is to obtain tar and a ton of feathers in the south. 😂👍

I've often said this before,my only regret moving from Houston to Calif. in '83 with my family was that i missed out on the next hottest thing next to JYD in the Midnight/Rock n'Roll fued.My cousin was sending me tapes of these boys doing some of the sweetest stuff i had ever seen,and with Cornys' type of heat i would experience later on WTBS,that would have put tops on my best live moments at that Coliseum or anywhere then and since short of Andre.R.I.P. Bobby and rest easy,soldier.

I grew up on WWF, but would watch wcw at my grandparents, and Bobby Eaton was the best to my chubby little 9 year old self. Gone but not forgotten.

Have a great day and Midnight from Tampa Florida

Loved the rivalry between the expresses!

Dennis Condrey wasn't "fixed in the Tennessee territories". Before 1984, he had also worked in Georgia, Mid-Atlantic, and for Fuller's Southeastern which went beyond Tennessee. He also did a tour in eastern canada. What allowed him to work in Tennessee for so long was that, in that era, there were three different promotions in kind of the same area that he could move between. Moving between the three and changing up his tag-team partners ever couple years kept him reasonably fresh for about nine years.

never heard corny "the hug" origin story. it was an incredible part of their presentation, especially for heels, esp in the 80s, esp in the south it was just a heat magnet

Every time I hear Jim cornette cry it always gets me crying.

Growing up around Alexandria Louisiana during this era was great. This was definitely my favorite era.

I lived in Tulsa all my life. I went to every Monday nite I could. My fav teams were the midnite express , doc and teddy and the freebirds. Great times.

Without you Jim, wrestling wouldn't be the same. Everyone hated you so bad. You did a great job at that..r.i.p .bobby. and now your continuing with history..and stories. Thank you.

Beautiful Bobby was a great guy a tag team specialist and a hell of a single star

I hated Jim Cornette growing up, he done his job well, Bobby and Dennis were two of the greatest wrestlers to lace up their boots. Now that I’m older I will say Jim Cornette is on of the greatest managers ever. Love to hear his stories now, thank you Jim for the best wrestling of the eighties and nineties I’ve ever witnessed.

The tar and feathering of Magnum TA was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen in wrestling the ultimate heel trick to intimidate a wrestler and put a wrestler in his place too bad more of this type of stuff doesn’t happen always loved it when the midnight express ran in and did something to their opponents when their opponents weren’t ready classic midnight express thank you Jim Cornett Dennis Condrey rest in peace Bobby Eaton for being one of the greatest tag teams in professional wrestling history and I’m so very sorry that your friend Bobby passed away ☘️🤘🇺🇸

Nothing Sweeter than Bobby's Alabama Jam

I could listen to Corny for hrs 🥃

Corny cracking at bit @5:03. I love what a deep feeling person he is

The M.E. and Mr Cornette played the perfect heel in Mid South. When they first appeared, the duo faced two tomato cans (Mike Jackson and I forget?). The teamwork and technical aspect of their chemistry was something nobody has ever seen before. Dropped elbow off the top rope was the M.E. finishing move. Who has ever done that before those guys? Nobody. The Road Warriors actually copied them, except they were much bigger. The M.E. and Mr Cornette never got the recognition they deserved. Should be in the HOF.

Grew up watching Dennis in Southeastern (Dothan TV). Scary good!

Give yourself credit corny. Midnight in Midsouth were fantastic!

RIP. Mr and Mrs Bobby Eaton

Ya'll will always have the respect and loyalty of and for one another whether on this Earth or the next life... Cherish your memories as long as you can... We are not promised tomorrow...

Did Corny just mention a 30 DVD Midnight collection? Where can we get this ?!

Jim will go down as the one of the very best, So it is written so it shall be done

Jim Cornette was on the right moment on the right time.

I first became aware of Cornette and the Express around 1984 then they were in World Class Championship Wrestling. I'm almost positive in all the years of watching him I don't think I heard Bobby Eaton say no more than 20 words.

I love their music.. Top 5 ever fo sho

I don't know I still don't see the thing with Magnum TA but I think it's really huge and humble of Jim to always think that he can do better and putting over Bobby like how we did

I was the 10th view. I've never been this on top of anything in my life ever.

impressed how jim kept his composure here

Cornette for the HOF!!!!

Cm punk posted watching Bobby Eaton today

Sorry to hear about your partner jim the midnight express are legendary

Its funny that Corny underrates himself like that because if he did those early promos today, they would be the sensation of the wrestling business and have people talking about how great they are just because they would stand out so much.

I often click on these to hear what the pictures mean.

If i believed in religion which i dont, well i believe its a scam, but nonetheless,if i had to join a religion its goin to be here brothers...Cult of Cornette 4 ever.. Thanks Jim and Brian.This show is real therapy for alot of 8

I guess the dark side is a black part of town. How clever

If you ever get to meet Jim Cornette in person and want to talk about a subject he loves to talk about,over and over again, just mention the midnight express. Personally I’d rather mention Vince Russo and how jim blew his knees out at Starrcade 1986. It would just be funnier. Then I’ll mention midnight to calm him down,

Corny in mid South >>>>> What Corny said about him

cornette, your light years ahead. swerve em for the love of it all and A REAL PARADIGM SHIFT. I want to see you RETURN TO THE RING.

Love him or hate him. He is so knowledgeable about the business he loved. Back in the day. Just listening to him set up a match is amazing. HE IS THE BEST THERE IS. THE BEST THERE WAS. AND THE BEST THERE EVER WILL BE

😂Wow

No such thing as homophobic

Typically I don't listen to Cornettes for other reason but had too this full episode and it's hard not to be teary eyed. I'm really glad I did because in the past year or so I've discovered alot of the Midnight Expresses work and they are one of the greatest tag teams of all time. I sincerely hope 40th anniversary Cornette rereleased the legendary book on the Midnights. God bless Bobby Eaton, Rest in Peace and Thank you for everything you've contributed to wrestling.

Magnum was lost when he quit wrestling the only reason he was where he was is because he was dusty Rhodes friend and croket liked him but a wrestling champion no he didn't have it
