Midnight Express heat?
By Scott Keith on May 23, 2014
In the Freebird question you said teams like the Midnights were jobbed out for political reasons. What reasons? Bobby must've been liked pretty well as he got a short baby face run, a TV Title run and then put in the Dangerous Alliance. Was there heat on Stan Lane? Or was this one of those "Because WCW" where they just outshines everyone and were thus knocked down a peg?
It wasn't specifically the Express as such, it was more Jim Cornette rubbing a series of bosses the wrong way (Ole Anderson in particular) and the Express making a lot of money and thus becoming the target of the constant cost-cutting measures. Cornette goes into tons of details in every shoot interview that he does.
