Bored 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2003 Pulled this off The Wienerboard: "The Road Warriors have told indy promoters that they will be joining WWE shortly. The plan right now is to give them a tryout to see how they look and how the fans react and then go from there in regard to a decision on whether they should be brought back on TV." --Credit: rajahwwf.com Oh and I checked rajah's source...Wrestling Observer Newsletter *gulp*.

Guest ViciousFish Report post Posted April 22, 2003 After watching Road Warriors in TNA I couldn't face seeing them in WWE. They are past the Hogan stage of washed up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Downhome Report post Posted April 22, 2003 I haven't seen them in the ring, so I can't comment. I've always marked for them, but I dunno. They sure were treated like shit the last time they were in WWE if I remember correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JAxlMorrison Report post Posted April 22, 2003 So the nonstop old jokes they made about the LOD (OLD) 5 YEARS AGO are just totally forgotten? Man Vince has totally lost it.....I will know he has gone completely insane when Luger is brought in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2003 Everyone has pretty much said that Luger is the last straw in terms of bringing back old timers. Who else would be left? I'd expect to see Savage before Luger, so he's not an option here. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dames 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2003 This whole thing reminds me of an old school fighting video game. You know, one of those side scrollers like BAD DUDES~! You fight your way to the top...you're in this great groove...and then you have to fight EVERY BOSS you faced in a ROW before meeting the Big Boss and ending the game. ..... Great.

Guest Will Scarlet Report post Posted April 22, 2003 Wow. Weren't the Road Warriors considered past it in like 1997? Geez. Who's next? Marty Jannetty? The Rock N Roll Express? Greg Gagne? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Redhawk Report post Posted April 22, 2003 Isn't one of the Road Warriors related to Johnny Ace? I think Animal is his brother or something. So look for LOD to be on Smackdown and make Team Angle look like shit. Yay. And I actually wouldn't mind seeing Macho Man one more time...if he's wearing some of that outlandish 1980s Macho Man shit, with the ridiculous sunglasses and all, and not the black-and-white WCW outfits. Besides, Savage is a big-time movie star, remember? He could feud with The Rock over who's the bigger Hollywood figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KanadianKrusty Report post Posted April 22, 2003 Here's the solution: -Fire everyone except Flair -Hire Terry Funk -Make RAW a Funk/Flair debate on whatever they want to talk about and have them wrestle for 30 minutes at the end. I mean if you're going to bring in has-beens, why not hire the entertaining ones? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
