Summary: 5 Stars
I could care less about wrestling now, but in the 1980's & early 90's professional wrestling was a lot of fun with many memorable characters and matches. At the top of the tag team food chain were the seemingly unbeatable Road Warriors. With their painted faces, street fighting tactics and spiked shoulder pads, the Legion Of Doom were a sight to behold. The fact that they revolutionized pro wrestling is redundant now but delve into this extraordinary trip through time to find out how they did it.I just finished watching this excellent 2 disc set on the legendary Road Warriors, Animal & Hawk and i have to say it is essential viewing for wrestling fans of the 80's & early 90's. The disc 1 documentary gives us a real, behind the scenes look at this awesome team. It chronicles the training, formation of and subsequent explosion of the Road Warriors onto the wrestling scene in 1983, forever changing the world of professional wrestling. They would eventually storm their way to all 3 major tag team titles (NWA, AWA & WWF), and have many memorable feuds with the likes of The Fabulous Freebirds, Midnight Express, The Koloffs, Four Horseman & Demolition. The falling out of the Road Warriors while at the very top of their profession was surprising to learn and will pique the interest of anybody who deemed this duo inseparable. Their subsequent reformation and return to action 4 years later was triumphant but too soon touched by tragedy with the sudden passing of Hawk. The disc 1 documentary is a thoroughly absorbing overview of The Road Warriors/ Legion Of Doom. The remainder of disc 1 and all of disc 2 contains many of their most memorable matches including the bloody Superclash AWA tag team title match vs. The Fabulous Freebirds, the Koloff Russian Chain Match at The Great American Bash 86, The famous Skywalkers scaffold match vs. The Midnight Express at Starrcade 86 and the bulldozing of The Nasty Boys at Summerslam 91 to capture the WWF gold. Some important matches are overlooked, such as the Ultimate Warrior team up against the 3 members of Demolition (instead we get a quickie count out match with the inferior version of Demolition, Smash and Crush) and the subject of why the Road Warriors never battled the original, superior version of Demolition, Ax & Smash, in a dream match is never discussed. Also missing is the infamous blinding of Dusty Rhoads with Animal's shoulder spike but that's about it. The WWE did a fantastic job with this dvd release and i highly recommend it for fans of the golden age of wrestling, a fitting tribute to the most dominating tag team of all time.Movie Review: The Road Warriors Were the BEST
Summary: 5 Stars
Great DVD for any true Road Warriors fan. I remember watching some of the matches on the DVD as a kid. I thought I'd never get to see those again. The nostalgia and background info on the Warriors makes this a must have.Movie Review: What a DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a Road Warrior fan back when they were in the AWA. In fact I have an original VHS tape they released of them when they were in the AWA. SO to see this coming out was great. The documentary was almost tear jerking in the end and the extras are awesome. They have matches from Georgia Championship Wrestling, NWA, AWA, Japan, WCW, and the WWF/WWE. I loved it and I would recommend it.
