The Fantastics were a very underrated team and Tommy Rogers should've been a major star if not for his lack of charisma, because he was a very innovative wrestler whose entire moveset was ripped off liberally by alot of guys who made it.

The Fantastic's feud with The Midnight Express

Had some great matches against The Sheepherders(Bushwackers) too.
