Over at ovwrestling.com, they've just announced a 12-hour boxset of Midnight Express videos. Here's what the site has to say about them. You can check out the site itself for details on what actually appears on each tape:
Originally posted by OVWrestling.comTo commemorate the reunion of all four members of The Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton, Dennis Condrey, Stan Lane, and Jim Cornette) in Philadelphia on October 2nd, we are offering a six-volume video tape set of the Express' great matches, career milestones, and memorable moments! It's twelve hours of the Express that includes rarities and background info as well. This is the essential video collection of the 1980's top tag team and manager. EACH TAPE COMES WITH CONTENTS SHEET AUTOGRAPHED BY JIM CORNETTE!
Geez, the gimmick was so awful! I really think that's the reason Holly continues to get pushes to this day. Every time he sinks past a certain point, he clears his throat and gently reminds Vince about Sparky Plugg and the MX...
Even Bart is over in Japan right now getting a hella Gaijin push because the MX period is PROOF the guy'll do ANYTHING for a paycheck.
And people wonder why Cornette vows to live longer than Vince for the single purpose of being able to piss on his grave...
Two hours later they decided to stop at a diner Because they loved the smell of eggs and coffee I just had to smoke a cigarette and wear a hat By the time that they set off again, the sun was starting to set It made the sky look red like a nuclear ray One of them said "what do you want more than anything in this whole wide world Do you want money, do you want sex, or do you want all that success?" I thought about that one myself (Then they came upon the thing)

Um... no.
A) Michael Barton (the former Bart Gunn) has pretty much fallen off the map in Japan. He hasn't had anything resembling a push in years.
B) Cornette never said that about McMahon(The late Michael "Hawk" Hegstrand did.) He WORKS for Vince McMahon and has always to my knowledge spoken well of him. Cornette may however have said it about Vince Russo.
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. - The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Michael Barton the former Bart Gunn may not be getting any sort of push but he did knock out the current WWE champion, Bradshaw. That just tells you that legit shootfighting and "wrestling" are worlds apart.

Okay, you don't want to include the "Bombastic" Bob and "Bodacious" Bart era but what "Ravishing" Randy Rose? And when you think about it, since Holly and the another Gunn are teaming together, why don't they revive the MX. Billy Gunn suits the "Bodacious" monciker more so than Bart and he looks like "Sweet" Stan.
