Ricky Morton: Rock N Roll Express’ Last Match Will Be In NWA, I’ve Talked To Billy Corgan About It

Ricky Morton gives an update on the Rock N Roll Express retirement tour. 

In January, Ricky Morton announced the Rock N Roll Express farewell tour that would begin on January 22. No dates were given for the tour and it wasn’t said when the tour would officially end, but at the conclusion of it, Ricky and Robert Gibson would retire from tag team wrestling. 

Speaking on Insiders Edge, Ricky was asked about the farewell tour and when it might conclude.

“No, we haven’t,” he replied when asked if the final match had been decided upon. “There are so many places we have on our farewell tour, I guess it’s going to turn into KISS’ farewell tour and go on for 14 years because there are so many places we haven’t been or we need to go back. There are a lot of towns that you want to go to. We’re talking about it. It has to be, our last match, it has to be at NWA. I have talked to Billy Corgan about it.” 

Ricky said some of his best moments happened in the NWA. He and Robert are eight-time NWA Tag Team Champions. 

“It will probably be June or July of next year. Robert and I have a few towns we still have to hit. We were going to end it this year, but we announced this and, we’re trying to make a living, we didn’t make millions, and there are towns that we’re going to make a lot of money off of in the next six months. It’s going to happen,” he said.

Ricky & Robert teamed at Renegade Wrestling Alliance on September 17 and won the RWA Tag Team championships. 

The team has competed for GCW, BTW, UPW, and more independent promotions in 2022.
