  • The Midnight Express war ein Wrestling Tag Team der 1980er Jahre und setzte mit seiner Eingespieltheit neue Maßstäbe im Tag Team Genre. Es bestand in seiner Hauptzeit aus Bobby Eaton und Dennis Condrey, bzw. später aus Eaton und Stan Lane. Gemanagt wurden sie von Jim Cornette. Der Name rührte, nach Auskunft von Dennis Condrey, nicht vom gleichnamigen Film her (obgleich dessen Filmmusik teilweise beim Einzug des Teams in die Halle gespielt wurde), sondern daher, dass sie stets schwarz trugen, schwarze Autos fuhren und bis nach Mitternacht feierten.
