My favourite Hawk story is hearing that he laughed uncontrollably when Vince tried to give Bret Hart a cowboy gimmic, complete with the outfit and a horse.

[@Daygostylz]

Ted DiBiase is one of the most underrated wrestlers of all time. Definitely top 5 heels ever imo. The Million Dollar Man persona was perfect. I think about Floyd Mayweather voicing his admiration for the WWF/WWE and have to think his Money Mayweather persona has at least some Million Dollar Man influence.

[@JohnnyJohn116]

Truth on all fronts

[@J0HNJ0RDAN]

For sure. The look, the voice, laugh, talent. Perfect. He did the face down "Flair Flop" better than Flair IMO. Definitely top 5 heal.

[@Daygostylz]

@@J0HNJ0RDAN absolutely. Everything about him made you want to hate him. It’s rare to have a heel that’s so relatable to the real world. Everyone hates a rich, cocky asshole lol

[@saltedllama2759]

That is well said. Mayweather saw what Ted, Flair, HHH, and a few others did as villains to help promote contests. Floyd was willing to embrace the villain role like a heel wrestler to help push his own fights to absurd levels.

[@jamief1263]

If anyone is in doubt how good Dibiase was, he got Virgil, yes, Virgil, super over. Great promos, good in ring work, knew how to work the crowd and could make anyone look fantastic. I personally felt that Bret and maybe Shawn could have used him or someone like him in their first baby face title runs.

After Hawk did his disappearing act over in England, they first would have Animal doing Handicap Matches Vs.

It was reported on in WWF Magazine, however. I remember it well.

[@adamrobinette6832]

It was always so heartbreaking to hear Animal tell stories about this time. He was not only Hawk's brother more than most blood siblings every could be, he was sort of Hawk's caregiver later on. The Road Warriors were like the Fonz in the sense that they could never really be anything other than a tag team. Animal knew that, and knew that whether they both kept making a living started and ended with Hawk, because the life he was living at any given time determined whether they worked or didn't. And Hawk, like all out of control addicts, became horribly selfish by then, and was very vocal that he didn't need anyone if they weren't on board with how he was living his life. And no matter how hard Animal tried to be Hawk's caregiver, there was no controlling Hawk by then. So Animal had to watch helplessly while Hawk destroyed literally the last 25% of their career, either walking out on his own, or getting the team released. Hawk killing their first WWE run was the worst, because they were red hot when Hawk tanked them in 1992. Just watch that 92 Summerslam match. They were so over, even with that damn puppet. They would have worked on top another few years.

Money Inc. winning the belts from the L.O.D was one of the strangest and most convoluted angles the WWF ever did. It happened at a non televised house show. What they they said on TV was that Dibiase paid off the officials to take the place of Earthquake and Typhoon who were supposed to challenge the Road Warriors that night. Earthquake and Typhoon were said to know nothing about this. Quake and Typhoon's manager Jimmy Hart betrayed them by arranging the deal with Money Inc. This turned Earthquake and Typhoon babyface and made them the top challengers to Money Inc. What really happened in Denver as reported by the dirt sheets was that Earthquake and Typhoon interfered in the match and cost Hawk and Animal the belts. Afterward the heels all celebrated together so they were all in on it. It was a few days later on TV that the WWF came up with this story. The fans in attendance that night in Denver had to be really confused in the aftermath.

possibly Money Inc pick the Tag belts back off Disasters, and then drop them to L/O/D?!

@@Shoreline71 I was very close to Joe.. we were like family. We traveled the world together. He told me first hand what happened that day. What I said is what Joe told me.. Ted is a bit off on this one and I’ve taken Somas myself so I know how they effect the mind/body. What you aren’t taking into consideration is when Hawk took them or his tolerance level.

This youngster, the host, hasn't done his homework. Hasn't the foggiest idea how the Legion of Doom debuted in WWF. Maybe he should watch shows pertinent to the interview subject.

[@TheHappynot]

It was a mistake to kill off Demolition, two professional guys who were super over as babyfaces at WrestleMania 6. They got tossed aside like trash all for The Road Warriors, who seem to bring nothing but drama.

Think I'd rather have Haku/Meng walk down a dark alley with me at night.

Any or all of: Haku, Steve Blackman, Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn, and Brock Lesnar.

@@BigG257 not bad. I’ll take Big Norton & the dude that nearly kiIIed mcmahon jr: Mr Wacholz AKA nailz. When Zenk was asked “pick three guys to patrol a volatile locker room”, he answered: “Norton, Steiner, Wacholz…; who the heII is gonna tell those three “no”…?
