Well here's some history from the July 26, 1980 edition of Georgia Championship Wrestling. Both of Bobby Eaton's future Midnight Express partners tagging up at the WTBS studio.

"Nature Boy" Stanley Lane and Dennis Condrey pair up to take on Terry Taylor and Dave White.

The match is followed by an interview with Ernie Holmes from the famed Pittsburgh Steelers Steel Curtin. Holmes actually just passed away this week.

  • I could listen to Gordon Solie all night doing commentary. He had such a great voice and described the action so vividly well.

  • Stan Lane has the distinction of being the only pro wrestler trained exclusively by Nature Boy Ric Flair. Flair allowed him to use his nickname

  • @UptownAssassin95

    They ALL look alike.

  • Interesting to see Condrey, Lane & Taylor when they were just starting out.All 3 went on to great success.

  • Could you imagine if Ernie Holmes brought Mean Joe Greene with him or Jack Lambert

  • @mrbluebmw : Flair allowed him to use Buddy Rogers' nickname. LOL. Flair was definitely the greatest of the Nature Boys though.

  • @CadillacL I'm pretty sure it's 1980 .

  • This old style territorial wrestling was so good compared to the junk of today! Gordon Solie was the best Wrestling Commentator ever!!! How I despise the WWE!

  • Does Ernie Holmes look like Ron Simmons? DAMN !!!!

  • Amazing how these terrific wrestlers performed in front of tiny crowds, with no music or effects. It was all about the wrestling and the idea that it was real.

  • so many odd coincidences here. Condrey and Lane,both members with Bobby Eaton. Lane called "Nature Boy" .Trained by Ric Flair. The other Nature Boy...And Terry Taylor who was considered for the Fabulous Ones.But instead they went with Lane. Crazy

  • great chicken drop by the red rooster terry taylor
