12.2. Who were in the Midnight Express?

Randy Rose, Dennis Condrey and Norvell Austin formed the Midnight
Express in Alabama in 1981. The group moved to Memphis in late
1981 and returned to Alabama in the summer of 1982. During 1983,
Midnight Express, Inc. included at one time or another, Rose,
Condrey, Austin, the Midnight Stallion, Ron Starr, Rick Harris,
and Wayne Ferris.

Condrey left Alabama and joined Mid-South in 1983, where he
formed a tag team with Bobby Eaton, managed by Jim Cornette, also
called the Midnight Express. The Alabama version disbanded in
early 1984, while Condrey, Eaton and Cornette would go on to
achieve fame in Mid-South, World Class and finally, the NWA in
1985. In April 1987, Condrey left and was replaced by Stan Lane.

In 1987, Dennis Condrey and Randy Rose joined as the "Original"
Midnight Express, managed by Paul E Dangerously. This group came
to the NWA to feud with Cornette, Lane and Eaton.
