I have a bad feeling about this one...

[salmonjunkie]

I love the old school AWA/WCW tag teams, but I never liked the R&R express.

[Road Warrior Shark]

The little kid in me is crying.
Hogan & Flair made me a fan
RnR vs The Russians made me a fanatic

[Lucky]

I have never in my life been able to look at the Rock n Roll Express and not laugh at them. Its weird. I even acknowledge their place in history. Still can't keep from laughing at them.

I HATED the RnR's as a kid. I hoped Ricky Morton would get his ass kicked every time out. That being said...

There's a REASON the phrase "playing Ricky Morton" still is kicked around today. I don't think the RnR's are the greatest tag team of all time, but I think you could probably make a case for them being the best BABYFACE tag team of all time. And they did FAR more to revolutionize tag team wrestling than Haas and Benjamin. The RnR tag formula is still used to this day and it is by far the most effective way to work a tag match.

[Eric O'Mac]

Good enough for my vote, Mike.

If you want to know what it's like to hear teenage girls scream for a wrestler (like we talk about it happening with Cena), watch a Rock n Roll Express match on Georgia Championship Wrestling. These guys invented the term "over."

I was gonna vote the other way, but you just swung me over to the RnR side.

Holy shit I can't imagine how deprived those teenage girls were if they found any one of the guys in the Rock N' Roll Express attractive, and this is coming from a guy who fucks produce!

What can you say? Chicks dig Robert Gibson's lazy eye.

Weren't the Rock & Roll Express also the first to sell just horrible merch and make much bank doing it? I want to say it was in Mid-South they sold cheap versions of those bandanna arm things they wore, now a rip off with Jeff Hardy's name is WWE's top seller!

The Rock 'n' Roll Express: Without them there'd be no spinner belt.

[bdbdbd]

Exact...shit.
