5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Matches, Cool Nostalgia..., October 25, 2005

This review is from: Road Warriors: The Life and Death of the Most Dominant Tag-Team in Wrestling History (DVD)

This DVD set is a combination of a tribute and a documentary of sorts. It features some of the more memorable matches in the Legion of Doom's career as a tag team and it also puts a spotlight on the tumultuous life of the late, great Hawk.

I was afraid the latter would be a tacky show on exploitation on Vince McMahon's part, as he's had an up and down relationship with both Road Warriors. However, the look back at Hawk's rocky life is done in a classy way with insight on his life, commentary by Animal and none of the "shock value" stuff that the WWE used in their more recent Ultimate Warrior DVD.

It's the matches that make the DVD set, though. There are so many great selections from the LOD's time in Georgia Championship Wrestling, the AWA, the NWA/WCW and, of course, the WWE. Some of these matches even include commentary by Animal himself. A really cool feature, in my opinion.

If you're a lifelong wrestling fan, such as myself, you're bound to enjoy this selection. One of the better "legend" compilation DVD sets out there right now. Even better than The History of The Undertaker, as far as I'm concerned.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best tag team ever gets their due., June 17, 2005

Not that there's ever been any doubt, but this collection cements the fact that the Road Warriors/Legion of Doom changed the face of tag team wrestling forever and proved themselves worthy of the accoladed heaped upon them. The main feature has Joe "Animal" Laurinaitis discussing the Warriors entire existence from their first meeting in Chicago to their move to Minneapolis to their early days in Georgia right up until Hawk's tragic death in 2003. There are plenty of other wrestlers, managers, friends and colleagues adding comments and memories about the duo throughout including my personal favorite moment where Barry Darsow aka Demolition Smash claims Demolition wasn't a ripoff of the LOD. Good candid stuff much like the ECW dvd and much like that set, the feature ends on a down note. It's sad that the Road Warriors went out with a whimper rather than a roar, but this set does a good job of closing their chapter of professional wrestling history properly.
