For years, "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart came to the ring carrying a megaphone. On more than one occasion that device would serve as a weapon and help his Superstars win matches and in some cases championships. But for some reason at WrestleMania VII when Hart showed up with the Nasty Boys he was sporting a motorcycle helmet.

As an 18-year-old fan and nearly a decade of fandom under my belt, I had a feeling that helmet would come into play. Much to my surprise though it was the megaphone that made its first appearance in the match. But it backfired and the Hart Foundation gained the upper hand again. Brian Knobbs was the victim of a Hart Attack and as Jim Neidhart covered the Nasty Boy, the referee was distracted getting Bret Hart out of the ring.

Jimmy Hart quickly tossed the helmet to Jerry Sags who blasted the Anvil with it. Knobbs rolled on top of him and three seconds later there were new tag team champions. As a fan, I always questioned why the refs never questioned actions like this. At one moment the babyface is in control and then when the referee turns back around, the good guy is laid out. But after that's what makes wrestling so much fun. 

Remember this?

I don't remember now if the helmet was a one off for Hart or if he continued to wear it through the Nasty Boys' title run. I suppose we can throw in Hulk Hogan's classic helmet from the late 80s too when he battled Bad News Brown. Those were the days...

Tag teams that should have won gold

Many times we see on social media fans talking about wrestlers who should have been the World Heavyweight Champion. I've even written a blog or two about it myself. But tag teams are never really brought into the conversation. Here are three tag teams who should have won the WWF Tag Team Championship.

Tag team champs... NOT

The Rockers technically beat the Hart Foundation for the belts in the fall of 1990. However, there were issues with the ring that night and the footage never aired on TV. Back then there was a saying if it didn't happen on TV, it didn't happen, so Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty were never recognized as the champs. I always enjoyed the duo and was disappointed when they split them up. We all know Michaels went on to have an amazing solo career and also won the tag titles with various partners, including Diesel, Steve Austin and Triple H. Jannetty and The 1-2-3 Kid had a brief run as champions too.

Paul Roma and Jim Powers were both "enhancement talent" in the mid-1980s. But then in 1987, the two caught fire and The Young Stallions started climbing the tag team ranks. The two joined the Killer Bees as the survivors of the tag team match at the first Survivor Series. They seemed to be the perfect underdog duo and destined to eventually win the gold after years of toiling. Imagine had they beat the Hart Foundation for the belts in '87 instead of Strike Force. Not knocking Rick Martel or Tito Santana, but the angle could have gone very similarly with Roma turning heel and becoming the Model. Again, no knock to Martel who did extraordinary in that role. 

The Islanders vs. The Young Stallions

The Islanders were a solid babyface team in the 80s. Then one day they joined forces with Bobby "The Brain" Heenan. The trio worked well together as Haku and Tama put their years of experience to good work. Haku would eventually win the belts with Andre the Giant. The Islanders could have been The Brain's first champs, but it wasn't meant to be.

I realize putting the titles on any of these teams would have disrupted the history of the WWF. But it would have been nice to see these three hard working teams be rewarded for their skills. 

Rock 'n rollin' into the Hall of Fame

WWE and CBS Sports have announced legendary tag team The Rock 'n Roll Express will be inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2017. I had seen rumors of this happening earlier in the year, but it's now official. It's a well deserved honor for Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson, but I'll admit I'm a bit surprised by the decision only because the team was primarily an NWA/WCW team although they had a few matches in WWF in the 90s.

Early success

When I started watching wrestling in 1983 the Rock 'n Roll Express had just been created. I read about them in the Apter magazines before they came to Jim Crockett Promotions in 1985. They were the hottest team on the scene, quickly winning tag team gold and feuding with the likes of the Koloffs, The Midnight Express and the Four Horsemen.

The duo had singles matches against NWA Champion Ric Flair during the Great American Bash too, with both Morton and Gibson being over with fans as they battled the hated champion. Reading the highlights in those Apter mags, it always seemed like Morton was "this close" to winning the gold. Personally I was a WWF guy in those days and prefered the British Bulldogs, Hart Foundation and Demolition to the Rock 'n Roll Express. Even in NWA matches, I liked The Midnight Express as they had some epic battles against each other.

Ricky & Robert in 2014

When I was working in Alabama in 1998 I had a chance to meet the New Rock 'n Roll Express. It was Morton and his "son". I don't remember the gimmicked name for the wrestler, but he later turned out to be Kid Kash. Morton was very friendly and granted me a quick interview that night, I enjoyed meeting him a lot. In 2014 Chad and I watched as Morton and Gibson captured the NWA tag team titles again at the NWA Midsouth show in New Orleans during WrestleMania XXX week.

Congratulations to both Morton and Gibson on getting the nod for the Hall of Fame, without a doubt the Rock 'n Roll Express will go down as one of the greatest tag teams in the history of the business. 

MVPs of WrestleMania #6

Last year I had the idea to do an MVPs of WrestleMania blog, but came up with it a day or two before the big event.  So I held my list waiting for WrestleMania 32 to roll around.  Admittedly I've made a couple of minor tweaks to the original list and debated internally over the quality of my list.  I invited Chad to play along too.  While the lists aren't perfect (he's not in our top ten), I hope you enjoy.  A new blog will be posted daily until March 31, the day I leave for Dallas.

For number 6 we both picked Bret "The Hitman" Hart

Kevin's thoughts:

Bret Hart has the distinction of being the second to last guy in the ring at the first two WrestleMania battle royals.  He also teamed with Jim Neidhart at several Manias including a six-man tag at 3.  The duo joined forces at 5, 6 and 7.  The Hitman went on to win the IC title from Roddy Piper at WrestleMania 8 in one of the best matches at the event of all-time.  He picked up the World title from Yokozuna a year after losing it to the big man also at a WrestleMania.  He had amazing matches with his brother Owen Hart and of course the big Iron Man match against Shawn Michaels and the "I Quit" match against Stone Cold.  Hart returned to the ring in 2010 to face Vince McMahon in a street fight.  While it was an ugly encounter, it gave the Hitman a chance at closure after his abrupt departure from the company in 1997.

Chad's thoughts:

“The Hitman” bridged the gap between Hulkamania and the Attitude Era. During that time, Bret faced off against Roddy Piper, Yokozuna, Bob Backlund, Shawn Michaels, Owen Hart and the already mentioned, Steve Austin. Add in his tag team matches as part of the Hart Foundation and you’ve got a solid WrestleMania resume.

Don't Pull the Plug on Tag Team Wrestling

I'm going to admit first and foremost I have not been paying as close attention to wrestling as I would like to.  Sometimes life gets in the way of fun and entertainment and things get lost in the shuffle.  I do watch Raw on a regular basis and I keep up with the pay per views via the WWE Network.  I even went back and did some research so I'm basing my opinions on facts and not just what I perceive to be the truth.

Ten teams do battle at Survivor Series 1987

I love tag team wrestling.  Looking back on the very first (and second) Survivor Series events, there were ten viable tag teams on the roster.  Ten.  I don't know if I could name ten viable tag teams over the past couple of years, much less that would be on hand for one pay per view match.  The days of duos like Demolition, The British Bulldogs, and the Hart Foundation are long gone.  Now we have quick, put together-at-the-last-second combos out there.

Star & Goldust

Right now on the current main roster the Usos and Gold & Stardust are really the only two active teams I see anymore.  Los Matadores are sporadically used and I'm assuming the Wyatt Family will soon be back in action, but let's look back on the calendar year.

Cody Rhodes and Goldust lost the tag team titles to the New Age Outlaws at the Royal Rumble.  Yes, a team that hadn't competed together on WWE programming in 14 years made a comeback.  It was brief and nostalgic, so I'm not complaining.  I'm really not.  

Wrestlemania XXX Kickoff

At Extreme Rules, the now defunct duo of RybAxel beat the Cody and Goldie and the Usos wrestled the NAO.  There was a fatal four way that was the kickoff to Wrestlemania XXX.  Los Matadores and The Real Americans (also no longer together) were a part of that. There was also a six man tag featuring the Shield against NAO and Kane.

There were no tag team matches at Extreme Rules, but another six man with the Shield against Evolution.  Payback saw that rematch and a rematch between RybAxel and Cody & Goldust.  The Usos beat the Wyatts at Money in the Bank and the newly revamped Star and Goldust took on RybAxel (again).

The Wyatts vs. the Usos

Battleground featured a rematch between the Usos and the Wyatts. There were no tag team matches at SummerSlam.  We saw Gold & Stardust take on the Usos at Night of Champions and Hell in a Cell.  

Now that we're up to speed, you can see there's a huge lack of depth in the tag team pool.  Sure there were a few more makeshift teams through the year, including Big Show and Mark Henry who are now enemies, and Damien Mizdow and the Miz seem to be on the verge of a split too.  Reviewing the WWE roster, there are so many guys on it now that aren't on TV, I scratch my head wondering why they're not being put to use.  

Woods, Kingston, Big E

For a bit we were being teased with a faction of Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston, and Big E.  I think it's a move that would benefit all three men and give fans something fresh in terms of a new team.  I thought Tyson Kidd and Justin Gabriel had good chemistry prior to Tyson's injury and time away.  I'm reluctant to suggest others from NXT because I fear without the proper introduction, they'll be lost in the shuffle (see Fandango, Big E, and Adam Rose among others.)

I think the tag teams that are currently being used do an amazing job, but week after week of tag team or six man tag team matches featuring the same guys gets a little old after a while.  Let's give the division a breath of fresh air and mix things up a bit.

Raw Memories: #8: Beer Bath

 The year was 1999 and attitude was oozing from the WWF.  The Rock was the new "corporate" champion after defeating Mankind (again) and Vince and Shane McMahon were singing the praises of the Great One.  This was also about the same time that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin was preparing for a Wrestlemania showdown with the Rock.  In fact, this happened six days before Wrestlemania XV.

Austin and McMahon were at the height of their own feud as well, with Austin recently defeating the chairman in a cage match at St. Valentine's Day Massacre.  I'm not sure of the order of events, but it seemed like it was becoming a habit for Austin to destroy one of Vince's cars or do something big with a vehicle of some kind.

On a fateful night in March, Austin raised the bar like never before.  The former champ drove a Coors truck into the arena from the backstage area.  He nearly took out the TitanTron as he made his way to the ringside area.  Of course, once he arrived he soaked the boss, his son, and the champ with an ice cold beer bath.  Before the spraying started though, Austin spouted off a great promo that got right under the skin of the heels in the ring.

Austin would go on to defeat the Rock at Wrestlemania that year.  This incident with the beer truck definitely put the exclamation point on one of the hottest rivalries in the history of the WWF (and in all of wrestling)

Honorable mention:
The Hart Foundation reborn

Honorable Mention:   1997 was a pivotal year for the WWF.  The world title had changed hands several times in the early months that year.  There was no conclusive winner to the Royal Rumble and fans were quickly growing tired of Bret Hart and his squeaky clean image.  Fans wanted more.  They wanted a bad guy to cheer for and they found that anti-hero in "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

Owen Hart and the British Bulldog had been the tag team champions and were on the verge of a meltdown.  They battled it out on an episode of Raw shortly after Wrestlemania.  The two were going toe to toe beating each other up, when Bret showed up and break the two apart.  He then delivered a speech that lead to the reformation of the Hart Foundation.  Only this time, it was a bigger, stronger, better unit.  

Hart reconciled with his former Hart Foundation partner turned enemy Jim "the Anvil" Neidhart.  Owen and Davey came back into the loop, and Brian Pillman helped to round out the unit.  Collectively they were the best thing going in the WWF at the time.  It was that speech during the Owen-Bulldog match that brought them all together.

Sadly though it would not last.  Pillman would die later that year.  Then Bret fell victim of the "Montreal Screw Job" and Bulldog and Anvil would leave the WWF shortly after that.  But for the summer of 97, the Harts dominated the WWF and picked up key wins, including that big Canadian Stampede victory over Austin, the Road Warriors, Ken Shamrock, and Goldust.

Black History Month: Koko B. Ware

By Kevin Hunsperger
@kevinhunsperger on Twitter

When I was a kid, I remember the flash and pizzaz associated with "the Birdman" Koko B. Ware.  He was probably the most popular lower mid card guy in the WWF in the late 80's.  But before Koko landed in the WWF, he was a nasty heel in the Midsouth, Memphis, and World Class regions.

Pretty Young Things with Percy Pringle

The first time I remember Koko Ware (there was no B) he was wrestling with Norvell Austin as the PYTs (Pretty Young Things)  The duo came to the ring sporting red Michael Jackson jackets.  But unlike their tag team name, they were far from pretty.  They were heels and wrestled the likes of the Fantastics, the Fabulous Ones, and the Youngbloods.  They held several regional tag team titles back then.

Koko eventually flew the coop and headed north to the WWF.  In 1986, he added the B. and a bird to his character.  Frankie the macaw became as popular as Koko himself.  Despite losing in his debut on Superstars (he and Paul Roma were beaten by the Hart Foundation) Koko was loved by the fans.  I remember watching the match and the reaction fans gave him.  After the loss, he dropkicked both Jim Neidhart and Bret Hart, much to the delight of the crowd.

High Energy with Owen Hart

Koko never really climbed the ranks, even though he was with the WWF for many years.  He was clearly a jobber to the stars, losing to Butch Reed at Wrestlemania 3 and was pinned by Bobby Heenan in a six man tag team match at Wrestlemania 4.  The British Bulldogs and the Islanders were also involved.  But like I said, Koko was over with the crowd.  His singing talent landed him the title song on the second wrestling album: Piledriver.  In 1992, High Energy was born, a tag team with Owen Hart.  The two wore some really outrageous gear, but never really achieved any success in the tag team ranks.

It really wasn't until Koko headed to USWA (still part of the WWF too) and won the heavyweight title there.  Looking back it seems like Vince sent a lot of his guys to USWA who he wasn't really using in the WWF at the time.  Koko beat Kamala for the that championship.  But neither man held any gold in the WWF.

Koko has since retired from the wrestling business, but was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009.  It was a surprising decision I think to many fans, as some (myself included) have questioned why the likes Randy Savage, Rick Rude, and Jake Roberts hadn't been inducted yet.  But the WWE Hall of Fame is unique to say the least.  I'm not saying Koko doesn't have a spot in there, as he provided years of entertainment for wrestling fans.  Kids loved him, adults loved him too.

Rebuilding the Tag Team Ranks?

New champs!

So the WWE has new tag team champions in Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne.  Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't last week the first time these two teamed up?  Maybe they've had some other matches over time, but it seems like this pairing is just a couple of guys that creative has nothing for, so let's put them together.

Now please, don't get me wrong.  I am a big fan of each of these guys individually.  And honestly, I'm probably passing judgment too soon on how they'll gel as a tag team.  My frustrations with the tag team division or lack there of have been well documented on this blog and on YouTube.

That video is from about 9 months ago.  I still maintain the WWE has done very little to breath any life in the tag team ranks.  This makeshift team of Kingston and Bourne is a start in the right direction.  But in my opinion, the first thing they need to change is their separate entrances.  I never understood why any team enters the ring as individuals.

I really felt like Michael McGillicutty and David Otunga were finally coming into their own.  I really hope the WWE doesn't do the usual splitting of the former champs like they've done so many times before.  If you count Otunga and McGillicutty (they need a catchy name), and Kofi and Evan (again, another name), the Usos, and sometimes Santino and Zack Ryder are there any other regular tag teams on the roster?  Of course there's been speculation that the Kings of Wrestling (Claudio Castagnoli and Chris Hero) are WWE bound.  I hope this is true and I hope they keep this unit together.

If they are in fact bringing in the Kings, this could actually launch a rebirth of the tag team division.  I think Kofi and Evan would have a better feud with the KOW.  But I'm probably putting the cart way before the horse here.  Remember when the Legion of Doom arrived in WWF in 1990?  We all wanted to see them battle Demolition for the tag team titles (at least I did) and instead they ended up helping the Bushwhackers against the Natural Disasters while Demolition dropped the tag team titles to the Hart Foundation and Ax was soon out of the company.

Back then though there were plenty of tag teams that they could have different programs with different teams going on at the same time.  Now it's a week to week thing and sometimes we go several weeks without even seeing the tag team champions.

I know tag team wrestling will likely never boom like it did back in the 80's and 90's.  Teams like Demolition, the Hart Foundation, Rockers, Brain Busters, British Bulldogs, Killer Bees, Road Warriors, Steiners, etc.  I really think the attitude era and the Monday Night Wars lead to the demise of the tag team at least in WWE.

This blog is a lot of wishful thinking, but I'm hopeful this time that we may see something happening on the tag team scene.  I'm still disappointed they let David Hart Smith go and a Hart Dynasty reunion is no where on the horizon.  Again, I think the WWE needs to let some of these teams simmer for a bit.  Don't split them up after a run as champions.  Help keep the tradition of tag team wrestling alive.

Fantasy Friday: Bulldogs vs. Road Warriors

By Kevin Hunsperger
@kevinhunsperger on Twitter

This week's submission features two of the greatest tag teams in the history of the business.  And they were both pretty big at the same time, just dominate in different organizations.  Of course of I'm talking about the British Bulldogs and the Road Warriors.

Sadly, unlike the two previous Fantasy Friday submissions, this match could never happen today.  Davey Boy Smith died in 2002.  Road Warrior Hawk passed away in 2003.  And Dynamite Kid has been in a wheelchair for years.  So this week it will truly be a fantasy.

The British Bulldogs:

My favorite tag team of all time is the British Bulldogs.  Although they weren't very good on the mic, they backed it up in the ring.  Dynamite's speed and agility as well as his pure wrestling talent coupled with Davey Boy's brute strength and developing in ring skills made them top dogs.  Pardon the pun.  Seriously though, their matches with the Hart Foundation are some of the finest tag team matches in the history of the WWE.  I think the series between Edge & Christian and the Hardy Boys and the Rockers vs. the Brain Busters may be the top 3 tag team rivilaries of all time.

Their time in the WWF was brief.  They appeared in the company for about 4 years, from 1984 until 1988. In that time they only held the tag team titles once, beating The Dream Team of Brutus Beefcake and Greg Valentine at Wrestlemania 2.  The Bulldogs held the titles for about 9 months before dropping them to the Hart Foundation.

They defended the belts against the Dream Team, the Harts, and the Iron Sheik & Nikoali Volkoff.  Those are the big opponents I remember.  I think they even beat King Kong Bundy & Big John Studd by DQ on Superstars once.  There were also plenty of wins over jobber teams (including Mick Foley) during their run.

Even after they lost the belts, they had more great matches against Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart.  They also entered a feud with the Islanders and the Fabulous Rougeaus Brothers.  They left the WWF before really getting another shot at the gold.  I had hoped they'd get another run and maybe challenge then champions Demolition.  It never happened.

The pair held the Stampede tag titles a couple of times too.  But for some reason the duo split and had a mini feud in Stampede before Davey Boy returned to the WWF to embark on a solo career.  Like I mentioned before, their time together was short (well, a lifetime by today's tag team standards), but they were my favorite team.

The Road Warriors: 


An even more dominate force was tearing through the competition in the AWA and NWA.  The Road Warriors won the tag team gold in the AWA first.  They beat Crusher and Baron Von Raschke in 1984 and then steamrolled through the competition.  They held those titles for just over a year before dropping them to the unlikely duo of Steve Regal (not William) and Jimmy Garvin.  But for those 13 months on top, they kicked a lot of ass.  The Road Warriors were different for sure.  They didn't look like any other tag team at the time, and certainly like no one else in the AWA.  The company was starting to struggle at that point, losing big names like Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, and Ken Patera to the WWF.

The Warriors were young, strong, and tough.  They snacked on danger and dined on death.  And in 1986 they left the AWA and continued to dominate the tag team ranks in the NWA.  It didn't take long for them to win the first ever Crockett Memorial Cup.  They also feuded with the evil Russians Ivan & Nikita Koloff and Jim Cornette's team of the Midnight Express.

It wasn't until a heel turn that they won the tag team titles by beating the face Midnight Express.  They lost their gold again to another unlikely team, this time Mike Rotunda and Steve Williams.  It was long after that the Warriors left WCW and headed to the WWF, where they also won the tag team gold.  They're the only tag team in the history of the business to hold the titles in AWA, NWA, and WWF.  Quite a feat.

Now if this match would have been held at the height of both teams careers, which was roughly the same time, it would have been a dream match.  The Bulldogs would have obviously kept it a high speed match with quick tags and lots of technical wrestling.  Davey Boy wasn't quite the power house he was at the end of his WWE run, so I don't think he would have been able to match Animal's brute power.

Because I was such a Bulldogs mark (and still am) it's hard for me to say this, but I'd have to pick the Warriors to win this contest.  I base it mostly on their dominance over so many tag teams during their run in the AWA and NWA.  The Bulldogs had some great opponents, but I think the Warriors were better for a longer period of time.  Dynamite's premature injury is partly to blame I think for the Bulldog's early plunge from the top of the WWF tag team division.

What are your thoughts?  Who would have won this epic tag team battle?  Weigh in here or on Facebook, Twitter, or even YouTube.

Have a Hart

Who's really the Mouth of the South here?

"The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart is reportedly headed back to the WWE.  The Hall of Fame manager's role has not been officially announced, but he has left TNA.  At least his picture is no longer on the Roster Page of the website.  But was it ever there?  I'm not sure.

Anyway, apparently Hulk Hogan has spilled the beans about Jimmy's new role with the WWE.  I'm not going there, because if you haven't read it, I don't want to ruin any potential surprises.  But here's what I'm HOPING we'll see from the legendary manager...

I've preached for months now that the tag team division needs a lot of help.  I never understand why they split up talented duos and then send the individuals to get lost in the shuffle.  Cryme Tyme, the Colons, and the Hart Dynasty come instantly to mind.  While members of the first two teams have been "future endeavored" I'll stick to my favorite of the most recent tag teams, the Hart Dynasty.

The Hart Dynasty during happier times.

Reuniting David Hart Smith and Tyson Kidd only makes sense from my perspective.  These two made a great team.  They were young and still a bit green, but they had so much potential.  They just need time and a better crop of opponents to face.  I would also turn them heel again.  And that's where Jimmy Hart comes in.  Of course it's a rehash from something that was golden (or pink and black) 25 years ago, but I think it could work.  Adding the Mouth of the South as the manager of the Hart Dynasty could be the boost in the arm the tag team division sorely needs.  Not to mention, it may open the door for bringing more managers into the fold.

Tag teams and good heel managers are two things I miss from wrestling when I was growing up.  This could be the start of something big.  Now if I could only get Vince McMahon, Steph, or Triple H to read this post.  Can anyone help?
