[7.0] "Lane was a good tag team specialist who never had much singles success. His work in the Midnight Express was great and he worked well in the Faboulous ones as well. He is ring work was good and he had a great look for pro wrestling"

[7.0] "Stan Lane is a notable figure in tag team wrestling, often likened to Ric Flair for his contributions to the genre. While not as legendary as Flair, Lane has left a significant mark on tag team wrestling history."

[9.0] "The only wrestler ever trained by "Nature Boy" Ric Flair. A tag team specialist who was apart of two of the most recognized and influential tag teams of all time, The Midnight Express and The Fabulous Ones. And I want to add that I felt like he more than carried his end of the team in both of those tandems. His transition in to the Midnight Express replacing Dennis Condrey was seamless and he picked up right where Dennis left off. He also I believe supposed to be apart of the heavenly bodies in WWF as Dr. Tom's partner, but got hurt or something"

[10.0] "*sighs and fawns* He was sooo handsome and some sort of sexual icon at his peak. Like, c'mon; it's not even fair to be that good looking, with that figure and THAT voice. Oh yah *giggles like an idiot* he was a phenomenal tag team wrestler as well! Precision timing and synchronization, Stan Lane was always where he needed to be and had a knack for helping create perfectly controlled chaos. He absolutely carried The Fabulous Ones but the Stan Lane/Bobby Eaton Midnight Express is beyond tremendous and embody a huge chunk of what I love/often want from wrestling. One of my all time faves who never had a notable singles push. And yes; if given the opportunity I would rush at 1988 Stan Lane like a rabidly horny grandmother, I have no shame in that fact."

[7.0] "More of a tag team specialist. Wish he had a better singles career. Did some commentating for WWF in the mid 90's."
