RIP Road Warrior Animal

RIP. Age 60. Joe Laurinitis.

Fun stuff as a kid watching them in AWA and NWA/WCW. WWF/WWE was not nearly as entertaining.

The best tag team bar none is reunited. They were the first of their kind, often imitated by other organizations and were truly the first popular bad guys.

One of the first heels who the more promoters tried to sell them as heels the more the fans cheered for them.

Great stuff with Four Horsemen, Steiners, Midnight Express and a bunch of others. Technically not the greatest but as a fan you knew what you were getting.

I beg to differ:

Dean Ho and Tony Garea​

Dean Ho and Tony Garea​

Loved Dean Ho and Tony Garea. Great battles with Mr Fuji and Prof Tanaka. Didn't Tony live in Hamden after his wrestling part of his career ended?

Road warriors and hart foundation were definitely in my favorites. Steiners too.

I also liked the Nasty Boys and demolition.

Its not even close. They were great on the ring and great on the mic.

Only tag teams really worth nothing beyond that is New Day and The Hardy Boyz

Edge and Christian bro. And the dudleys Gotta show the other killer teams from those tlc matches there some love.

And the young bucks are probably the best team in the world right now. Although they are being the anti kliq right now and holding themselves back.

Saito and Fuji were great. Didn’t either Saito or Fuji have a short run with an individual title belt? I remember as a kid thinking that didn’t seem right.

Lots of things about pro wrestling don't seem right when you're a kid. Even less makes sense as an adult.

My knowledge of pro wrestling stops somewhere around 95-2k. Definitely should include Dudley's. They had a great gimmick and worked their arses off.

Damn I forgot about the Dudleys. Definitely should include them. Edge and Christian were alright, but Edge was better solo

 

[hardcorehusky]

I loved ECW - the Dudley's were good but they had so many good tag teams run through that promotion- the Pit Bulls, the Eliminators, Public Enemy.

 

[BlueDogs]

Missed the British Bulldogs.
