S8E4: The Fantastics vs The Midnight Express w/Mike Mitchell

Two Bobby's, a Tommy and a Stan enter the UTC Arena. No, it's not the lineup for a cartoon character convention, it's the makeup of an NWA United States Tag Team Championship match featuring two of the hottest pairs of their era: The freshly arrived Fantastics challenge the dastardly Midnight Express who are in the middle of lengthy run as champions. Though they wrestled at least a dozen times (in this run alone), this particular contest, taped in front of lively crowd in Chattanooga, was called an instant classic despite spanning five commercial breaks. One wonders how many California Raisins ads aired on TBS that day. Joining the gang to help break down the action is Mike Mitchell (@SirMitchell)!
