One of the Best Tag Teams in the 1980's The Road Warriors
Teams of the 1980's that I remember that everyone wanted to follow suit were The Road Warriors. Demolition wanted to be like them. The Powers of Pain wanted to be like them. And even now a days the Acolytes wanted to be like them. Even though there were imitators, there was only one original and which never could be duplicated and that was The Road Warriors.
The Road Warriors dominated professional wrestling in the 1980s going through the AWA and the National Wrestling Alliance. They had classic feuds with The Midnight Express and The Steiner Brothers and they sided with Dusty Rhodes against Ric Flair and the 4 Horsemen.
Then they came over to the then WWF to feud with The Hart Foundation and to destroy the imitators Demolition who were about to disband at the time. And when The Hart Foundation feuded with The Legion of Doom, The Road Warriors it was a battle of who would be the best team in wrestling. The Hart Foundation were up there as one of the greats and The Road Warriors were to. It was great to be alive to see this feud unfold. All I know it was so long ago. It was the Golden Age of Wrestling.
It was sad to see what happened to the Road Warriors, Animal and Hawk at the end. Hawk later passed away in the early 2000's and then Animal wasn't the same. Nothing couldn't ever duplicate that team and he moved on. And just recently Animal had passed away.
