WWE announced on Monday afternoon that the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express are joining the WWE Hall of Fame.
Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson are one of the most successful tag teams in professional wrestling history. The duo began teaming together back in 1983 and were the quintessential “teen idol” team. They had successful runs in Memphis, Mid-South wrestling, Jim Crockett, the NWA and many other territories. They had a few matches in WWE, competing against the Heavenly Bodies at Survivor Series 1993 and later during the Attitude Era as part of Jim Cornette’s NWA faction.
They still compete on the independent scene to this day and made a cameo appearance during Broken Matt Hardy’s Tag Team Apocalypto match at Total Nonstop Deletion back in December.
Along with Kurt Angle, the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on Friday night, March 31st in Orlando, FL.
