Condrey and Rose resurfaced in the NWA (with Dangerously) in late 1988. During a television broadcast on TBS at the Techwood Drive Studios in Atlanta, Jim Cornette received an anonymous phone call. The caller ridiculed Cornette over Eaton and Lane's recent loss of the NWA World Tag Team titles to the Road Warriors. Cornette recognized the caller and baically asked him to come say it to his face. At that point, Dangerously and the Original Midnight Express hit the ring and proceeded to pummel Cornette and Stan Lane, who was wrestling in a singles match. By the time Bobby Eaton showed up, it was three on one. Cornette showed up the next week on TBS carrying his blood stained suit jacket and the feud was on.
The teams wrestled at Starrcade '88, but nothing was solved. The Midnight's vs. Midnight's would be the hottest feud in the NWA for months, building up to a 6-man tag match involving the managers on pay-per-view in February 1989. The one who got pinned would have to leave the promotion. However, the NWA was under new ownership and in transition at the time and many wrestlers were coming and going. At the last minute, Dennis Condrey decided to leave the NWA. Jack Victory was brought in as his replacement and the match went forward, but at this point no one really cared.
Rose would leave the NWA for a time and Dangerously would go on to bring in the Samoan Swat Team or SST as his new team. Rose would return to the NWA for a brief time in mid 1989. In 1990 and 1991, Rose wrestled for Georgia All-Star Wrestling and the Global Wrestling Federation. Global Wrestling Federation was a professional wrestling promotion based in Dallas, Texas. ...
Rose was also very involved with charity work during his wrestling career and tried to use his status as a pro wrestler to raise money.
