The Tag Team Appreciation Night segment on AEW Dynamite would have been lukewarm if not for the heel turn that happened with FTR during the course of the action. Tully Blanchard cut the second-best promo of the night after MJF during the course of the segment (well, Jake Roberts cut a great promo on AEW Dynamite as well, so it's a toss-up between the two veterans), but it was the attack from FTR on the Rock 'n' Roll Express that got people talking. FTR should have been heels from the moment that they arrived on AEW Dynamite, and it's great to see them in this avatar.

Your homework tonight is to go and watch classic Rock ‘N’ Roll Express and Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard matches. Witness greatness. #AEWDynamite
How cool was it for the Rock 'n' Roll Express, to put over a young team like FTR in the manner that they did?
Having interviewed Scott Dawson/Dax Hardwood in the past, I know that he's a big NWA/WCW fan and this segment on AEW Dynamite must have been the happiest moment of his career.
