[10.0] "One of my favorite tag teams of all-time are the Fantastics. The Rock & Roll Express and The Road Warriors got all of the publicity in WCW during their run in '88-'89 Then, in Smoky Mountain Wrestling, they had a brief reunion with Bobby's brother Jackie involved and taking over Rogers's spot in the team. That wasn't a good move, as the team wasn't as good without Rogers involved. They had another brief reunion in a return to WCW in 1996 for one loss to the Faces of Fear before going back to Japan. The last time they were in the ring together (to my knowledge) was as opponents on an episode of WWF Monday Night Raw in a match that lasted mere minutes and got no mention of them being a former tag team as part of their Light-Heavyweight Title tournament. Such a sad ending to a great team. If they were on the card, you knew they were in the best match. Their 45-minute match on Worldwide with the Midnight Express is one of my favorites of all-time and this team never failed to deliver. Eric Bischoff stated by the time they returned to WCW in 1996, that their time had passed. I disagreed because they could still go in the ring, but I wasn't running the company, so off to obscurity they went. Rest in peace, Tommy Rogers. You were a great entertainer."
[10.0] "One of the 80's not so hidden gems, if The Fantastics were on the card, it was probably the best match, undoubtedly one of the best 3. Watch them pop crowds like few did in their time! Yes they were basically another Rock n Roll Express clone but both were in much better shape and Tommy always looked absolutely TREMENDOUS. They outworked the RnR by leaps n bounds as well. The Fantastics had chemistry with essentially everyone but their Midnight Express matches were always off the charts. Flaws would be their size meant Vince would have never even touched them (unless they were cool with being in "45 second squashes"), so they never went further than JCP (which did allow for a short WCW stint) and sometimes Bobby could be "too cute" to the point of detrimental. Recommended with no hesitation, I honestly can't glow enough."
[8.0] "From the golden age of NWA tag team wrestling, not quite the level of the Road Warriors, Horsemen or Freebirds, they were an excellent second level team. Great work against the Varsity Club, Sheepherders and both of the Midnight Express teams. I preferred them to the Rock & Roll Express but they were not as over. Their mic work hurts them in that comparison but not their ring work."
[9.0] "I don't know why The Fantastics are/were so underrated (maybe it's because they didn't quite have "The Look" or maybe their charisma was seen as lesser, I really don't know), but they have to be the best underrated Tag Team of all time. They were tremendous in North America & in AJPW. I absolutely love their body of work in the 1980's & 1990's. They had WAY too many outstanding matches to ignore, and they brought it hard all the time from what I see."
[8.0] "Great team given they were so out of place in the southern wrestling scene. They pretty boys that felt more of what WWE was doing at the time, but they worked the crowd and became a known threat in the territories and Japan."
[7.0] "The Fantastics were a really good babyface tag team, and good workers. They suffered somewhat in places like the NWA and Mid-South, because they followed the Rock and Roll Express, and were a similar gimmick, the pretty boy babyfaces, which hurt in them being able to get over."
[10.0] "Sie machten ihren Namen alle Ehre. Neben den Andersons mein persöhnliches Lieblings Tag Team die es nicht in die WWF geschafft haben, aber ich denke mal das war auch die richtige Entscheidung. Denn da wären sie wohl unter den Demolition oder den Harts unter gegangen. "
[8.0] "Tolles Tag Team der Achtziger! Fast alle Matches, die ich von Ihnen gesehen habe, konnten überzeugen und das lag oft sicher nicht an Ihren Gegnern."
