9 THE FABULOUS ONES Greatest Tag Teams Ever

The Fabulous Ones were a popular and influential tag team in professional wrestling during the 1980s. Composed of Steve Keirn and Stan Lane, they were known for their charismatic personalities, good looks, and in-ring ability. The Fabulous Ones achieved success in several wrestling promotions, most notably in the Memphis-based Continental Wrestling Association (CWA) and the American Wrestling Association (AWA). Here's the story of the Fabulous Ones: *Formation:* The Fabulous Ones, consisting of Steve Keirn and Stan Lane, were formed in the early 1980s. Both wrestlers had previously worked as singles competitors and in other tag teams. *Popularity in Memphis:* The Fabulous Ones gained immense popularity in the Continental Wrestling Association (CWA), which was run by promoter Jerry Jarrett. Their good looks and charisma made them fan favorites, especially among female fans. They were known for wearing stylish ring attire, including colorful jackets and sunglasses, and for carrying tennis rackets to the ring. *Championship Success:* The Fabulous Ones captured the AWA Southern Tag Team Championship multiple times during their time in CWA. Their matches against rival teams like The Moondogs and The Sheepherders (later known as The Bushwhackers) became legendary. *Influence and Legacy:* The Fabulous Ones are often credited with helping to popularize the rock 'n' roll and "pretty boy" tag team style that became a significant trend in wrestling during the 1980s. Their success and appeal contributed to the rise of tag team wrestling during that era and influenced future tag teams and wrestlers. *Departure from Memphis:* In 1985, the Fabulous Ones left Memphis for the AWA, where they continued to achieve success, including winning the AWA World Tag Team Championship. *Later Career:* After leaving the AWA, both Steve Keirn and Stan Lane had successful careers as singles competitors and in other tag teams. Stan Lane, in particular, became well-known as one-half of The Midnight Express alongside Bobby Eaton. While the Fabulous Ones' time in the wrestling spotlight was relatively short-lived compared to some other tag teams, their impact on the wrestling industry during the 1980s and their role in popularizing a particular style of tag team wrestling cannot be overstated. They are fondly remembered as a dynamic and influential tag team in the history of professional wrestling.
