The Fabulous Ones have often been credited with being the innovators of the "Pretty Boy" gimmick for tag teams and one of the first teams to popularize the use of music videos to help make them popular. With the success of the Fabulous Ones it wasn't long before promoters all over the country started to imitate their formula; even the Memphis promoters used the formula again and again with success. The first team to emulate the Fabulous Ones' formula was The Rock 'n' Roll Express, a fact admitted to by Jerry Lawler, and later on The Fantastics (who were originally billed as "The Fantastic Ones). Other teams have used the "fun loving pretty boy" gimmick but none more successfully than The Rockers, a team that started out in the AWA as the "Midnight Rockers" but soon rose to national stardom in the WWF. In ECW in 1996, Stevie Richards and The Blue Meanie did an affectionate parody of the Fabulous Ones. They were also a main inspiration for other promotions. WCW created the team of The West Hollywood Blondes, while WWE modeled several teams after the Fabulous Ones. The Dicks (Chad Dick and James Dick), The Heart Throbs, Well Dunn, and the team of Billy and Chuck were all inspired by the Fabulous Ones.
