“The event is coming together great,” stated promoter Matt Riviera. “I am thrilled to have legends of the caliber of Jim Cornette and Jerry Stubbs committing to participate in the Fanfest. Cornette was one of the stars of Mid South that helped it gain a cult-like following in the South with his introduction of the tag team “The Midnight Express” which featured Bobby Eaton and Dennis Condrey. Stubbs was one of the most popular stars of Mid South Wrestling throughout the 1980’s.”

Cornette is one of the most respected wrestling managers of the past 30 years and is never known to be at a loss for words. At Fanfest, for the first time ever, Jim Cornette will host a Q&A session with Bobby Eaton, Dennis Condrey, Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson in which they will answer the fans’ questions regarding their legendary 30 year rivalry. They will be joined by wrestling great Bill “Superstar” Dundee, who was Mid-South’s matchmaker in 1984 and actually made the first match between the Expresses.

Cornette and Stubbs will join the already announced list of Mid South Legends; Bobby Eaton, Dennis Condrey, Bill Dundee, Ricky Morton, Robert Gibson, Mr. Wrestling II, Danny Hodge, Bushwacker Luke, Porkchop Cash and Kamala.
