WWE is currently preparing for WrestleMania 42 which will take place on April 18 and 19. While fans are excited for the action, some sad news has arrived. The wrestling world has lost a legend, Dennis Condrey who passed away at the age of 74. Fans and wrestlers everywhere are mourning his loss.
Dennis Condrey had an incredible wrestling career. He was a key member of the famous tag team, The Midnight Express, alongside Bobby Eaton. The group was managed by the legendary Jim Cornette and became very popular in the 1980s. Their rivalry with the “Rock ‘n’ Roll Express” is still remembered as one of the best in history. Sadly, The Midnight Express has not yet been inducted into the Hall of Fame. Condrey started wrestling in 1973 and retired in 2011. During his long career, he worked for major companies like WWE, AEW and WCW where he was even managed by Paul Heyman for a short time.
All Elite Wrestling has also expressed grief over the passing of Dennis Condrey. AEW shared a special message saying, “AEW and the wrestling world are mourning the passing of Loverboy Dennis Condrey, one half of the legendary Midnight Express. Our deepest sympathies go out to his family, friends and fans during this difficult time.”
