1993-1995 Steve Doll and Rex King changed their team name from the Southern Rockers to Simply Devine and then ultimately Well-Dunn for their run in the WWF. Steve's name was changed to Steven Dunn, and Rex's name was changed to Timothy Well. I never quite understood the gimmick. Is it supposed to be arrogant Chippendale Dancers? I didn't like the outfits; they never rose above the mid-card level, and their time there was marred by injuries for both. They weren't used correctly, and giving them those outfits doomed them from the start. They did have some really good matches with The Bushwackers, The Smoking Guns, and even the Rock 'n Roll Express. The WWF tried to break their contract at one point because they both were out with injuries. They had to get an attorney and were able to get them to honor the remainder of the contract, which wasn't renewed. Steve and Rex never wrestled together regularly after this. Although they did come together to team and feud a few times. Steve remained Steven Dunn for the rest of his career, with a few exceptions. Rex King, whose real name was Timothy Smith, went back to being called Rex King for the remainder of his career.
A pen pal sent me these photos in 1994 and 1995.
She got some great shots!
Hilarious photo of Steve and Rex getting bit on the butt by the Bushwackers!
