Question

Which one was better, The Fabulous Freebirds from WCCW, or The Midnight Express?

Answer 1

MIDNIGHT EXPRESS

BEAUTIFUL BOBBY AND LOVER BOY DENNIS W/ JIM CORNETTE AND HIS LOADED TENNIS RACKET

THEY WERE THE BEST TAG TEAM IN THE 80S BAR NONE

Answer 2

MIDNIGHT EXPRESS

Answer 3

d**n, this may be the hardest question you've ever asked!

Bobby Eaton could wrestle rings around any Freebird (and the other Midnights, for that matter).  But no Midnight could out-fight or out-brawl Terry Gordy.  The Midnights have the Freebirds beat in the cheating and dirty tricks department (mostly because of Jim Cornette), but the Freebirds were better at double-teaming.

In a regular wrestling match, the Midnights (Eaton and Dennis Condrey, the best version in my opinion) would win most of the time (with a lot of the credit going to Cornette's distractions and interferences).  Eaton and Condrey just had better teamwork.

But in any type of gimmick match where there are no DQs, and Gordy can be unleashed, the Freebirds win.

So, really, it comes down to the great teamwork of Eaton and Condrey, or the monster that was Terry Gordy.

Despite Gordy's awesomeness, I'll go with the wrestling ability and teamwork of the Midnight Express.  Final answer, Regis.

Answer 4

Well that really depends on the context. As far as World Class goes there is no question that the Freebirds were the better team. The Midnight Express really didn't do alot in WCCW.  As far as the NWA as a whole goes, the Midnight Express probably have the better legacy.  

For my money, being the World Class guy that I am, I have to go with the birds Especially Gordy, Roberts and Hayes. They set wrestling on fire down there and really paved the way for the modern idea of a stable.

Answer 5

That is a tough one to answer.  The Freebirds were just so awesome.  The Midnight Express were pretty good.  I would have to go with Bam Bam Terry Gordy, Michael P.S. Hayes, and Buddy Jack Roberts.

Answer 6

The Midnight Express. They were better in ring workers than the Freebirds. Michael Hayes could always talk, but he was never the best wrestler.

Answer 7

The first Freebirds were better in every way over TME. IMO
