One of the longest-tenured tag teams in history, the Rock N Roll Express have remained together for most of their wrestling careers.

Ricky Morton possibly pioneered the 'babyface in peril' role for tag matches and was famous for his ability to sell any move like he'd been shot. By the time a battered and beaten Ricky finally made the tag to Robert Gibson, the crowd would explode with excitement.

Always babyfaces, the Rock and Roll Express is perhaps the most beloved tag team of all time, with fans lining up in droves to see them even in 2018.
