Post Description

For nearly two decades, Michael "Hawk" Hegstrand and Joseph "Animal" Laurinaitis ruled the WWF (now WWE) as the greatest tag team in pro wrestling history. Alternately known as the Road Warriors or Legion of Doom, Hawk and Animal distinguished themselves with a ferocious fighting style and a MAD MAX wardrobe to match: face paint, mohawks, leather, and massive metal spikes. The Road Warriors made their debut in 1983 and competed for the AWA, NWA/WCW, and WWF/WWE all throughout the 1980s, becoming the only tag team in history to win major titles in all three divisions. Though they faced a decline in popularity in the '90s, the duo continued to make appearances until Hawk's tragic heart-attack death in 2003. This documentary recounts the Road Warriors' enduring legacy through archival footage, interviews, and a collection of clips from their most memorable matches
