i met animal aobut a year before he died, he took a look at my giant sized self (im 7'9") and the first thing he said to me was "andre would have loved to have met you man, aint met anyone besides you who could make him look small, so he sure as hell would have loved you"
I've watched wrestling since I was a kid back in the 80's and there was no team like LOD. Total smashmouth in your face style. Thank you to Joe Lauranitis and Michael Hegstrand (Animal and Hawk respectively) for the memories you gave us over the years. And shout out to Wrestling Bios for this awesome piece.
Back in the 80s going to grandma's on a Saturday evening eating ice cream & watching NWA wrestling Road Warriors were the best of all time. Never will be like that again. Good old days.
I met LOD around 1990 in Calcutta Ohio..They did a Signing at a Dept store called HILLS! I had to pick which 1 I wanted to meet and get a Autograph from and I wanted Animal but was so over whelmed in excitement, I said "HAWK"! So I got up to them and He signed 2 of those WWF Promos and also signed Animal as well and gave out a "Ohhhh What a RUSHHH!" VERY Loud I will add! I wont ever forget these memories and now Im glad I picked Hawk instead since his Signature is way rarer! Still have BOTH Promos to this day! Awesome guys to meet!
Very nice! I met them in 1986. They were doing a signing at a K-Mart in Roswell, GA with Paul Ellering and Joe Pedicino. I got Everybody's autograph except for Pedicino. I also got polaroids of me with Hawk and Animal. One great childhood memory. I was 14 at the time.
These guys were the peak of what wrestling will ever get to. It was awesome when you heard "Whaaaat a Ruuuush" and seeing these two Iconic legends come out menacing. Can't be duplicated. The best.
I first seen these guys in action on tv waaay back in 1984, and I was blown away and terrified!!! I totally collected their posters and action figures.. There will never again be a tag team like this EVER again!!!!
No doubt. I was a little kid in the 80's and the Road Warriors were the baddest motherfuckers of all. When they used to run into the ring and pound people before the bell rang, my head would almost explode.
@giftofgab247to me with wrestling being fixed tagteam takes team effort. there were ultimaniacs hulkhogan and ultimatewarrior. but lod just always stood together. considering team work I would say legend of doom, steinerbrothers then hartfoundation. because scott steiner went on his own, brett hart went on his own. I wish wwe took tagteam more serious these days they seem to focus more on divas.
My favorite time in wrestling, the Road Warriors versus the Koloffs, then later the Road Warriors, Nikita Koloff and Dusty Rhodes versus the 4 Horsemen.....great stuff, so glad that we can relive those days through TH-cam!!!
Lee, THOSE WERE the good old days! That's really what I dislike about wrestling today. At least then, they knew how to promote an ideal. Men were MEN!!! Honor, Loyalty, dedication to one's career NOT going off to do movies and stuff. Sacrificing their bodies solely for OUR entertainment. I still say the NWA had the greatest fueds in wrestling history. The Garvins and the Freebirds, Midnight Express and Rock-n-Roll Express, Magnum TA and Tully Blanchard, Butch Reed and JYD..... Yeah, you're right Lee, THANK GOOD FOR TH-cam!!!
Greatest and most dominant tag team ever, bar none. One thing not mentioned is the fact that Hawk had a broken ankle when they had the scaffold match at Starrcade '86. Both Road Warriors were simply too tough for words.
One of the top tag teams of all time because length of their career, how long and how many organizations they participated in, popularity, style, wrestling ability, their promo spots, how many and how often they possessed the tag team belts, and notoriety of their team name as well as individually. Very few teams fit in all the categories I mentioned.
Animal has died at the age of 60 on September 22, 2020 at the Tan-Tar-A Resort in Osage Beach, Missouri. The WWE released the following statement regarding his passing: “WWE is saddened to learn that Joe Laurinaitis, known to WWE fans as Road Warrior Animal, has passed away at the age of 60. One of the most intense Superstars to ever step into the squared circle, the 6-foot-2, 300-pound Animal spent the majority of his career alongside his tag team partner, Hawk. Together, they formed what was arguably the most successful, popular and feared tandem of all time - The Road Warriors. With their intimidating face paint, outfits covered in metal spikes and impressive array of power moves, the duo captured titles and destroyed opponents wherever they roamed. Their dominance made them so popular that the phrase “Road Warrior pop” has been used in locker rooms to describe particularly deafening reactions from the crowd ever since. The Road Warriors thrived in multiple stints with WWE, where they were known as The Legion of Doom. The team won the World Tag Team Titles on two occasions and were eventually enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame. WWE extends its condolences to Laurinaitis’ family, friends and fans.”
@@MrJon76 I'm not dismissing any of the tag teams. I just happen to think that the Rockers and Road Warriors are the 2 most influential & The Rockers are my personal favorites
They were the most intimidating team that intrigued fans but as workers and being pleasant to the eyes? I like either version of the Midnight Express. I think Bobby Eaton is the most underrated wrestler of all time.
They got me into Black Sabbath. Them and my uncle, when I was a kid he smashed my toy guitar after playing a solo to the song. Iwas so pissed! God I miss him. Greatest tag team 😎
I remember that intro was well! I'm 48 and loved watching this guys wrestle. I do remember an earlier intro I think it was the theme song from the movie the Warriors?
I loved them in the 80’s when they where in Jim Crocket promotions . I always liked the NWA/WCW better . I guess it’s from growing up some in the south . Nothing like old school TBS at the weird start times 6:05 or 6:35 . Tony Schiavone calling matches brings back memories 👍🏼. I saw Road Warriors live once. It just never felt the same when they went to the WWF.
George Williams I wouldnt say Arn and Tully because they did win the Tag Titles as the Brain Busters in the Heenan Family. If anything, they just wasnt there long due tue Tully failing a drug test.
I loved watching these as a kid. Hearing eeeeeeeeee what a rush usually blew the ceiling off my sitting room on Saturday nights. I'd literally be bouncing off the walls watching them. The best tag team ever.
They actually started out as part of Powerteam USA before becoming the Blade Runners. Sting was called Flash and Warrior was called Justice. There were 3 other guys in the group as well. After that they wrestled as the Freedom Fighters then as the Blade Runners. prowrestling.fandom.com/wiki/Powerteam_USA
Road Warriors/L.O.D. were definitely number when it comes to the GOAT of TTW followed by the British Bulldogs and Heart Foundation. RIP Hawk and Animal. Much love from Cleveland!
Their time in the WWF was what really jumped them to stardom. As a kid I know that I didn't know who they were until they were the LOD. A lot of people didn't.
With a LOUD and EMPHATIC. ...ROAD WARRIORS are the greatest tagteam of ALL-TIME...like Ms TINA TURNER said in her song..."simply the best, better than all the rest" #LOD
Big Bubba Rodgers was supposed to catch Cornette but looked up and seen how high up he was and hesitated and jim landed on his feet breaking both legs.... He has retold the story many times
One of the greatest in ring feats of all time is Hogan sandbagging Animal because he didn't want to be gorilla pressed then Animal just muscled him up anyway, and that was a young 300lbs Hogan.
Thanks for listening to my suggestion again..i know i said about half a dozen but they were mentioned in that and its good you listen to your subscribers,keep up the great content big yin.
I discovered the road warriors one night after work, was totally blown away watching them. To me the most awesome tag team of all time ,at the peak of wrestling, the current version of wrestling can’t compare to the 70s -80s
The Road Warriors were my favorite growing up as a kid when they were in the NWA, I remember that's when they walked out to Black Sabaths Iron Man. Loved them so much!!!!
The Road Warriors are the BEST tag team in history. I saw one of their first matches in Wheeling, WV in ‘83, a cage match vs Buzz Sawyer and Brett Wayne. Awesome!!!!
I remember working in the Whitestone Radio Shack in Flushing in the '80s and I would convince the manager Ron to put on wrestling. So on Saturday's we would watch channels 9 and 11 for repeats. The Road Warriors were on an independent wrestling division before coming to WWF ( WWE now ). The were spectacular then and some of their matches are still phenomenal. Thank you RW for the entertainment.
Ikman 280 everything in wrestling is not fake.Go to a wrestling school train for about a month. Jump off the top turnbuckle a hundred times.Slam people numerous times. Jump and land on you're Knees and back over and over again. Take potatoes to the forehead face or chest.Potatoes are real punches.Have you're have you're arms legs and neck stretched. Wrestlers if they have wrestled long enough have knee problems,, spine problems, back ,shoulder and arm problems. All of these things aren't fake.Wrestling fans don't care about scripted or fake it's the wrestling shows, wrestlers ,storylines and performances we care about.No offense to you.
Oooh what a rush I remembered the legion of doom I also remembered at Wembley stadium summerslam 1992 when their entered down the aisle on their Harley Davidson motorcycles and they are bikers and actually owned motorcycles of their own
Growing up in Chicago back in those days these guys was living legends. Was 2 of my all time favorite wrestlers and I can't leave out Lex Luger R.I.P to of the best to ever do it.🙏😥
When they were in AWA, the promotion put on a show at my high school. That's how it was sometimes back then. The LOD wrestled Crusher Blackwell and Sheik Adnan el Kassi with Bobby Heenan. The large pop they received for winning the WWF titles happened because they became the first and only team to win the NWA/WCW, WWF and AWA tag titles. At the time, the wrestling market was up for grabs and the big 3 promotions were in hot competition to take it over. Unfortunately, AWA (Vern Gagne) did not have the juice to compete with Turner and McMahon.
I remember when Animal, (before he got that name), was a singles competitor, and when they came on the scene, they just blew everyone away with their power! No one knew just who could match them in that.
I love the last line of this video...."if you grew up in the 80s watching NWA..." so true. That was me. And no question Hawk and Animal are the greatest of all time.
Just heard Animal passed away today :( May both these men who gave me so many great memories as a kid RIP.
my fav tag team
@@KP-mj7ph Same here

@giftofgab247 Yep they held the "Tag Team" belts numerous times
No doubt. I was a little kid in the 80's and the Road Warriors were the baddest motherfuckers of all. When they used to run into the ring and pound people before the bell rang, my head would almost explode.

@giftofgab247 no one was more dominant than the Road Warriors. NO ONE.
Your exactly right ! Hawk and Animal will always Be the GOAT of Tag Teams. Sadly I dont think there will ever Be another even close to them.
The Road Warriors will always be my all time fav tag team. I enjoyed when they were with NWA, AWA, and WCW. WWF ruined their persona as a team.
wwf-e do that, ruin some great acts
I agree, I loved their NWA career, hated what WWF did to their image.
My favorite time in wrestling, the Road Warriors versus the Koloffs, then later the Road Warriors, Nikita Koloff and Dusty Rhodes versus the 4 Horsemen.....great stuff, so glad that we can relive those days through TH-cam!!!
Yes the Road Warriors the greatest tag team.
Lee, THOSE WERE the good old days! That's really what I dislike about wrestling today. At least then, they knew how to promote an ideal. Men were MEN!!!

LOVE THE ROAD WARRIORS!!! BEST TAG TEAM EVER IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING!!!
R.I.P. MIKE AND JOE!!!
6:22 Became the only team in history to accomplish a feat that never got touched. Winning all Big 3 tag titles. AWA, NWA & WWF.
Greatest and most dominant tag team ever, bar none. One thing not mentioned is the fact that Hawk had a broken ankle when they had the scaffold match at Starrcade '86. Both Road Warriors were simply too tough for words.

Liiiiiiive from the omni in atlanta!!!
WWE pretty much ruined anyone who was in the NWA. Dusty in polka-dot, "King"Harley Race, Arn and Tully to a lesser extent.
George Williams I wouldnt say Arn and Tully because they did win the Tag Titles as the Brain Busters in the Heenan Family. If anything, they just wasnt there long due tue Tully failing a drug test.
I’m from the north and couldn’t agree more. Some of my fondest memories were watching NWA with my grandpa and uncle as a kid
Hard to deny, these two were the best. Tag-Team GOAT!
I remember those days those were the good old days great video
The Roadwarriors
Hawk 6'3" 277 pounds
Animal 6'1" 300 pounds
G.O.A.T. Enough said!
RIP Animal OH WHAT A RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH! Thanks for being a part of giving me an awesome childhood.
I have loved these two since childhood & want to thank you for this post! RIP dear brothers!
I'm glad you mentioned the samoan swat team and the skyscrapers. Whether it was Sid with Danny Spivey or mean mark callous aka undertaker.
Found it very distasteful when the WWE ran the storyline w/ Hawk and substance abuse. Still by far one of the best tag teams. RIP Hawk.
Ya that sucked using Hawk's issues. No class merits for Vince. Such a poa exploiting someone else's personal life. 😡🤬
Great video! I've always wanted to see a full career retrospective on the Road Warriors so thank you 🤘🏻
I stopped watching wrestling in the mid 90s except I can't get enough of these videos
Me too
No question! The road warriors- "legion of DOOM"-were the GREATEST tag team. Ever!!!
Not one argument can be made otherwise. #1.

You need to do this again in more detail, seems like you skimmed over the biggest tag team ever
