The fact that he's remembered more for being one of the nicest human beings you ever met more than being a great wrestler speaks volumes for Beautiful Bobby Eaton. RIP, Legend.

One of the most underrated workers in the business. The feuds between the Midnight Express and the Rock n Roll Express, Road Warriors, or Four Horsemen were works of art in the ring. Those guys could main event a card without the straps and still get over. RIP Beautiful Bobby Eaton.

"Nicest guy in pro wrestling history, and also the most underrated" Ric Flair about Bobby Eaton.

Bobby Eaton will be missed but never forgotten. the midnights vs the rock n roll or Tully and Arn even back in the old Memphis days when he teamed with Koko Ware was all golden. A true professional and a beautiful human being. love and prayers to all his family and friends.

Bobby Eaton is one of the most underrated wrestlers ever.

RIP to one of the tag team goats

I grew up watching Bobby Eaton in WCW I really liked his singles run in the early 90s. I'm truly saddened to hear of his passing.

An Epic Legend has passed , one of true greats of pro wrestling ... A great tribute ...hurts to see this ,,, Rest in peace Bobby

The best swinging neckbreaker in the business.

RIP Beautiful Bobby Eaton

All my heros are almost gone God bless your family beautiful Bobby thanks for the memories

RIP Bobby Eaton. This caught me by surprise. I remember seeing him in Jimmy Hart's stable on Memphis Wrestling before the Midnight Express and was so happy to watch his career blossom the way it did. Still underrated in my book though.

Awww man Bobby Eaton was 1 of my favorite wrestler's. R.I.P BOBBY 🙏🙏🙏 Very great technician very underrated

For me, a signature match in the career of "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton was when him and Dennis Condry (The Midnight Express) took on the Road Warriors in the Night Of The Skywalkers Scaffold Match at Starrcade '86. That's the match that put him on the board with me. I hope his rest is peaceful.

The "Dangerous Alliance" and his days tagging with Arn Anderson was my favorite part of his career... R.I.P.

He was one of the best on knowing how to move and not hurt his opponent. He moved like he was 150lbs. Thanks for the memories Bobby Eaton

I just came upon the news that pro wrestling has lost , in my opinion a true gentle soul and talent that will never be rivaled or duplicated. When I started to watch pro wrestling in the early to mid eighties, it was World Class Championship Wrestling and Mid-South Wrestling that were what my tv antenna could pick up. And I have always loved and been a fan of tag teams, my cousins had there favorites but I took my time and rooted for the fan favorites, but I watched closely when Jim Cornette and The Midnight Express came out to wrestle , both versions with Dennis Condrey and then Stan Lane and the constant outstanding quiet pro that was, is and always will be Beautiful Bobby Eaton. Some of the matches againist, The Rock N' Roll Express, The Road Warriors, and some of my favorites were againist The Fantastics, and so many more and I smiled when I got to see Arn Anderson and Bobby Eaton team together, and so many others that Bobby taught and worked with, and the Professional Wrestling World , for me will be missing Bobby Eaton and I can't speak for every fan, other than myself, and have his family and close friends in my prayers and I thank Bobby Eaton, for making pro wrestling so much better , and being an even better person . You will be missed Sir Bobby Eaton, may you Rest. In. Peace. , and again thank you for being one of the greatest tag team, and single pro wrestlers to ever lace up your boots . From one fan and hopefully many more , mere words can't describe what others, much more closer to you are feeling and I will not insult their feelings, but I have all of you in my prayers to, simply Thank You to all of those who've paved the path for today's pro wrestler's and never , ever forget the Legendary Men and Women who made this possible.

Rip Bobby Eaton I hope your healthy in heaven I love you

That flying leg drop! No one could do it better than Beautiful Bobby

Damn, so sad! One of my all-time favorite heel wrestlers but in reality one of nicest guys in the business! RIP: Bobby Eaton...

One of my favorites from the '80s. RIP.

One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE WRESTLERS

Pure class

Bobby Eaton and the midnight express were a big part of my childhood. RIP

RIP Bobby. You along with the Big Boss Man and Scott Hall had one of the greatest right hand working punches in the business. Also thank you for making the otherwise horrible WCW Saturday Night tolerable to watch via your matches.

This was very well done. RIP Beautiful Bobby

Beautiful bobby Eaton is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time and should be in the WWE hall of Fame.period

I met bobby at a house show in Albany Albany Georgia

Awesome tribute. RIP Bobby

I will always treasure the Midnights-Rock And Rolls rivalry, certainly the most heated tag team feud in wrestling history. R.I.P. Beautiful Bobby.

Love the Midnight Express feud with the Horsemen. True classic.

How much can a person endure of their favorite Wrestling icons,mentors and hero's for the past few Legend's are so Truely missed, IAM crying as I text this statement so please stay prayed up 🙏🙏🙏🙌😇😇🙏🙌 Halleluja AMEN!!!***

He really was THAT GOOD!!! I always look up Bobby Eaton Bruiser Brody my 2 absolute favorites!!!!! RIP

Bobby is one of the GOATS

I had met Bobby several times in the past helping with local independent shows. Bobby was a GREAT person and great wrestler from my all time favorite tag team the Midnight Express. I have photos of myself with Bobby at house shows and he never failed to take the time out to speak with me and take a look at old NWA House and TV taping pictures that I had taken over the years. I was honored to be in attendance many times as both a young fan and in later years as a friend.... Including the infamous Scaffold Match against the Road Warriors. RIP my friend... I will see you on the other side.... Your friend "Chief".

Rest easy, beautiful Bobby.

Moamo9q,o9amam99a,

Always rated Bobby Eaton,he always looked so smooth in the ring.

Growing up the eighties and watching wrestling I always thought the Midnight Express was one the greatest tag team of all time. They are definitely in the top five because of Beautiful Bobby Eaton. Didn't say much, so smooth and no wasted moves. He was one the best!

The fact that anyone would give a thumbs down to a tribute to possibly the most universally respected man within the business and a legendarily good human, is proof positive that this world is never lacking for miserable assholes. Fly high, Bobby and thank you.

RIP Bobby Eaton ...so sad to hear him passing, so many memoriesI watching him with the Midnight Express and his solo years. The moves, the right hand, the hair. As a fan I heard so many stories about what a truly great guy he was in the ring and outside. Truly underated as an athlete and a performer...

Nice tribute. RIP Bobby. 😔🙏

God Bless his Family during this time

Thank you Beautiful Bobby Eaton; thank you for making history, thank you for all the memories, thank you for having the heart that you had in helping your fellow wrestling brothers in their careers, thank you for being an all around champion... Rest In Peace Beautiful Bobby Eaton..🌹 ☀️🐺🌙🐺

Maybe not formally, but he was trained by Tojo Yamamoto. I’m from Huntsville and my dad and uncle grew up knowing him.

Thank God I got a chance to meet Bobby Eaton at a house show when Traditional Championship Wrestling was still operating. I was a able to get his picture and his autograph. I have never heard anyone in wrestling or outside of wrestling say anything bad about Bobby Eaton. Bobby Eaton Sir you will trying be missed and you will never be forgotten! One of the true legends of single and tag team wrestling! Rest In Peace Bobby Eaton and your wife Donna also which she passed away about a month ago! I am so sorry for the losses of Bobby and his wife Donna and prayers for their families!

Holy shit I had no idea. Remember watching wrestling with my old man and these guys were so entertaining. Loved his finishing move. He started that! Rest In Peace to another legend🤘!!!! He will be missed...

Makes me feel bad when I read about the sort of thing I had no idea he had passed God I watched him in the Midnight Express forever what a true loss

Rest in peace Bobby Eaton. The Alabama Jam is now in heaven.

Gonna try not to tear up while typing this out. I have been a wrestling fan from the age of 5 years old, I'm going to be 36 this year for context, one of the first matches ever shown to me by my uncle was midnight vs rock n roll. And I was hooked. I loved everything about what I saw. As a child I loved seeing the baby faces win and that big feel good moment but it always was based on how big of a heel the heels were I mean you won't get the same feeling from watching a squash or whatever. It was all about how bad the "bad guys" were. And there was no one badder than the midnight I loved seeing them get their asses kicked. It was not untill I was in my late teens early 20's that I really started to understand what was going on and once I did I went back and watched all of those old matches with the midnight and fell back in love with them for a completely different reason. I could see the work that was being put in there was no wasted movement when it came to beautiful bobby everything he did had purpose made sense and could be followed by ANYONE (and I say that as someone that took a while to understand what I was seeing lol.) It can NOT be over stated how good the man was in and out of the ring. He was a beautiful human being ( not knowing him personally but from all accounts he was peak humanity) the world lost an amazing person this past week and it hurts me on a deep level that he is gone.. ... Good bye Bobby Lee we love you.

I'm from Atlanta, and I grew up with my family on TBS!!! It truly hit me this morning when I realized that Mr. "BEAUTIFUL" BOBBY ❤💔EATON had passed away! I can still hear the Midnight Express music playing in my head as they came into the ring! Look up in the sky, its BEAUTIFUL BOBBY with his leg drop, 💥 BOOM! You are missed brother!!!

No one came off of the top turnbuckle like beautiful Bobby. Not much of a speaker, but a hell of a technician and a hell of a wrestler. RIP.

Bobby Eaton was truly one-of-a-kind. Respected by his elders, his peers and his fans. Legend.

I loved that he didn't say much in the interview segments...did all his talking in the ring...was one of if not the best tag team wrestler of ALL time...bar none. R.I.P. BEAUTIFUL BOBBY EATON. You will be missed by any true wrestling fan.

RIP Beautiful Bobby! You were second to no one!!!

Man that was a great tribute good to hear that he was not only a great pro wrestler but a better human being. He was really underrated in the ring smooth as silk. It sucks to seeing people you watched when your young pass away he will be missed.

OMG,, I was just thinking about Bobby Eaton last week wondering why he was not inducted into the Hall of Fame. He was one of the greatest!!

Memory remained back during my younger time watching legend in action, those days it's look real... RIP 🙏 over there...

A Wonderful Tribute To A Wonderful Man! Thank You For So Many Great Memories! Rest In Peace Bobby. We Love You!!
