Demolition reportedly sign WWE Legends deals

Legendary late-1980s tag team Demolition are reportedly under WWE Legends/Nostalgia contracts, first reported by PWInsider.

The original members (Bill Eadie & Barry Darsow) revealed last fall that they were invited to attend the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony for WrestleMania 40 but were unable to attend due to prior commitments. The two are not in the Hall of Fame, adding to speculation this could be the precursor to being named to this year’s class.

The 77-year-old Eadie (Demolition Ax) and 65-year-old Darsow (Demolition Smash) made their WWE debut as a team in January 1987, eventually winning the then-WWF Tag Team titles three times. Their 478-day reign from March 1988 to July 1989 still stands as the third-longest in main roster history behind The Usos and the New Day.

Eadie, who competed for WWE as far back as 1983 as the Masked Superstar, last wrestled for WWE at the 1990 Survivor Series. Darsow, who continued to team with Crush (Bryan Adams) in Demolition, eventually changed his character to Repo Man, ending his run in March 1993.
