Robert Gibson (born Ruben Cain, July 19, 1958) is an American professional wrestler. He is best known as one-half of the tag team known as The Rock 'n' Roll Express, with Ricky Morton.
Cain started wrestling as Robert Gibson in 1977. He was trained by his brother Ricky Gibson and teamed with Ricky in the southern independents.
In 1983, he formed the Rock 'N Roll Express with Ricky Morton. They feuded with The Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton and Dennis Condrey) in the USWA/CWA, and the feud carried over into the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA)'s Jim Crockett Promotions in 1985. They won the NWA Tag Title four times while there and feuded with the Four Horsemen, Ivan and Nikita Koloff, and the team of Rick Rude and Manny Fernandez. 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.
Gibson was injured in 1990 and when he returned to World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1991, Morton turned on him to join The York Foundation. They feuded and Gibson teamed with Tom Zenk, but had no success and soon left WCW. He rejoined Morton in Smoky Mountain Wrestling (SMW) and they feuded with the Heavenly Bodies led by Jim Cornette. Shortly before SMW's demise, Gibson turned heel and joined "Cornette's Army".

In 21 innings of work, he had an ERA of 9.86. He walked 25 and struck out only four.
As a hitter, Gibson had a .176 batting average in seventeen at-bats. He committed a total of five errors, two of which were from when he spent time in the outfield.

He was an Assistant United States Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania from 1904 to 1914 and a special assistant to the U.S. Attorney General from 1912 to 1913.

Take a moment and watch this short video. Robert Gibson thought he'd die in Brushy Mountain Prison. He killed a man in 1976 and in 1982 was part of a group of inmates that took guards hostage and fatally shot rival prisoners in their cells with a smuggled gun. He has truly seen it all at Brushy, from a life of wickedness to a story of redemption, love, and freedom. This is what God can do - no matter where you’ve been or where you are, He’s still in the saving business.
