The Fantastics are a professional wrestling tag team comprised of Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers.

History

In 1984, Bobby Fulton & Tommy Rogers started a team in World Class Championship Wrestling called The Fantastics. They began a legendary feud with The Midnight Express that would extend into the NWA.

In 1986, they had a very violent feud with The Sheepherders (who would become the "Bushwackers"), Butch Miller and Luke Williams in the Universal Wrestling Federation.

In 1987, back in WCCW, they feuded with Mike Davis & Tommy Lane, The Rock 'N Roll RPM's. They won the feud by winning a scaffold match at "The Parade of Champions" on May 3, 1987.

They next went to the NWA's Jim Crockett Promotions to continue their feud with The Midnight Express and to win the NWA United States Tag Team Titles.

In 1989, they left the NWA and have been wrestling, sometimes together, sometimes not, in the independent circuit around the United States.

They made a very brief appearance in the WWF in 1997 when Fulton wrestled Rogers in the WWF Light Heavyweight Title Tournament.

As of 2005, they can still be found occasionaly teaming in the independents.

Fulton has occasionaly teamed with his brother Jackie Fulton as "The Fantastics" and "The Fantastic Ones".
