Robert Gibson was born on July 19, 1958 in Pensacola, Florida, USA as Ruben Cain. He is an actor, known for Starrcade (1986), WWF Raw (1993) and WWF Unforgiven (1998).
Even though he and Morton were of similar build and wrestled a similar style, Gibson was always booked as the stronger and more powerful of the two.

In 1990, he injured his knee and was out for at least a year. Ricky Morton began teaming with Tommy Rich. When Gibson came back he had a feud with Morton, and the two fought at the Great American Bash '92. It wasn't until late 1993 that the two began teaming again as the Rock 'n Roll Express.

When he first began teaming with Ricky Morton, they needed a tag team name. They were going to call themselves the Ricky and Robert Express, but since they both liked Rock n' Roll, they decided on Rock 'n Roll Express.

Often does sign language in his interviews. This is because his parents are both deaf, and he signs to them.
