@davemeltzerWON why does New Japan keep the House of Torture intact? Thereโs some talent there but the outside interference makes me not watch any of their matches. Takahashi is beyond awful these days.
@BrianRSolomon I spend way time more time than I should punching buttons to get to the correct person. I get tossed to different departments and then when I do get to talk to someone I can barely understand them!
@TheRokuChannel I was watching Purple Rain. Had twenty minutes left an you guys took it off or put it behind a paywall! Screw all of you! Money grabbers! ๐๐๐
@PWInsidercom Really great article on Dennis, Mike! Dennis was so underrated and his in ring work should be studied by aspiring wrestlers for decades to come.

The National Wrestling Alliance is saddened to note the passing of โLoverboyโ Dennis Condrey, one of the most accomplished tag team wrestlers in history.
A founding member of the legendary Midnight Express, Condreyโs most well-known partner was โBeautifulโ Bobby Eaton. Managed by Jim Cornette, Condrey and Eaton captured tag gold across the U.S. South and reigned as NWA World Tag Team Champions for seven months in 1986.
The Midnightsโ feud with The Rock โn Roll Express defined a generation and propelled tag wrestling into the main event. As one of the most profitable rivalries of the 1980s the teams headlined countless live events. Condrey and Eaton followed with an intense series against The Road Warriors, culminating in an infamous scaffold match at Starcade โ86: The Night of the Skywalkers.
Soon after, as The Original Midnight Express, Paul E. Dangerously led โLoverboyโ Dennis and partner โRavishingโ Randy Rose to the AWA World Tag Team Titles. The trio then jumped to NWA to begin a heated contest with Condreyโs former manager Cornette with Eaton and his new partner โSweetโ Stan Lane.
During a career spanning 1973-2011, Condrey won more than 50 pro wrestling championships. A true legend in the sport, his legacy will continue for generations to come.
The National Wrestling Alliance extends its most sincere condolences to the family, friends and fans of Dennis Condrey. RIP โLoverboyโ Dennis.
