Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

alexanderdavies-99382 The Road Warriors or Legion of Doom need no introduction. They have long been acknowledged as one of the definitive tag teams throughout the history of professional wrestling. Their direct and hard-hitting style, plus their look, all combined to make them a force to be reckoned with. The fact that Hawk and Animal were real life street fighters added a lot to their respective characters. This documentary chronicles the career of this tag team via interviews with those who worked with them and those who knew them. Hawk's well known drink and drug problems aren't shyed away from and are included in this tribute. We get to see hear from Animal how he and Hawk got into the wrestling business in the first place, how they learnt their trade as they went along, the problems brought on by the erratic behaviour of Hawk and other things besides. Animal describes their days as bouncers in some of the tougher nightclubs before turning to wrestling. Animal even revisits one of the nightclubs after over 20 years have elapsed. The Legion of Doom inspired real fear in some of their opponents and some of them were slightly reluctant to step into the ring with them. Precious Paul Ellering was absolutely instrumental in the team becoming a success. He functioned as the nerve centre and he genuinely was the manager to the Legion of Doom. The documentary reveals the following that Hawk and Animal had during their time with the AWA and the NWA. They held the titles in both companies and became one of the most popular teams. In 1990, they came to New York to work for the WWE and made themselves known soon enough. The crowds were a lot harder to please so the Legion of Doom succeeded in becoming more entertaining. As the documentary points out, the problems began to develop and the team got suspended a couple of times. I would have liked it if more had been mentioned of Hawk and Animal feuding with the likes of Natural Disasters, Money Inc, The Nasty Boys amongst others. The story angle against Demolition is mentioned a fair bit though. It is revealed how after Summerslam 1992, Hawk handed in his notice and walked out. Animal had to fulfill the remaining bookings in handicap matches before he sustained a serious injury to his back. He and his partner weren't on speaking terms for a while as Hawk went to Japan to wrestle. The rest of the documentary deals with the Legion of Doom going to the WCW before leaving due to a contract dispute. Eric Bishoff didn't look as though he wanted to reveal what led to Hawk and Animal leaving and dismissed them as being past their prime. More fool him! The documentary rounds off with the team returning to the WWE and Hawk finally being able to lay his own demons to rest. He seemed a somewhat troubled soul who was in need of some guidance according to Paul Ellering. Jim Ross makes a telling remark about how Hawk tended to be in the locker rooms. According to Ross, some wrestlers were afraid of Hawk because he was a bit of a loose cannon. A few times, he used to execute his press slam move and drop people on the hard floor. This is the best documentary you will ever find on the Road Warriors/Legion of Doom.

SoulCaliburGod I was always a fan of Animal and Hawk, The Legion of Doom, The Road Warriors, whatever you call them. This DVD was pretty neat. It showed their early beginnings, their rise, and their fall and separation. One of my gripes, as with the other comment, was how they didn't show any feuds. OK, they have one match against Demolition, and a pretty mediocre one at that, but they never bother to show any more of the feud after that one match. They mention and show the ending of their triple tag team match with the Ultimate Warrior against all three members of Demolition but they don't include it. Nor do they include their Survivor Series match that included them on Team Ultimate Warriors. Another example is LOD 2000 when Animal and Hawk win a match against multiple tag teams. This was Animal and Hawk's reunion match after Hawk left for Japan. How could they leave this match out? Another gripe about this DVD is they show mostly victories with only one or two matches ending in DQ. This ended up making the DVD pretty predictable. Just because they lost a match doesn't mean that it was not worth watching. I wish they would have included their last RAW together. I also didn't like how they devoted a lot of time to showing their promos and sometimes not even following up. They have a promo against the Natural Disasters, Earthquake and Typhoon, for example, but they don't show the match because Animal and Hawk lose.All that aside, this was still a great DVD to buy.

MARVMOOCOW The most successful tag team ever, Hawk and Animal,The Road Warriors aka Legion Of Doom aka L.O.D.This is DVD essential viewing for any wrestling fan. L.O.D were the tag team that inspired many imitators including Powers Of Pain and most notably Demolition(a team that consisted of their training partners) This DVD tells the story of how Hawk and Animal grew up together,trained together,worked together and made the big time together. My biggest gripe with this DVD is that it doesn't show enough of their feud with their biggest imitators DEMOLITION, which was one of my all time favorite tag teams ever, (right behind L.O.D and the Hart Foundation)It would've been great to see the match between all three members of Demolition and LOD with the Ultimate Warrior or the feud against Earthquake and Tugboat RIP HAWK!!!
