      Sadly the guy had a few screws loose in real life. He normally came off as a soft spoken guy in the locker room and if you met him - unless you pissed him off. At one point he was supposed to join the WWF - Vince even put him on the cover of a magazine a month before his debut - then he never bothered showing up. Sadly he's now accused of murdering his wife.

      Agreed. BUT, Hawk still would've put some hurt in BJH. BJH has been to my family's house on a few occasions - my mom dated him right around THIS time. They actually broke up when he left for WWF/E
      So I'm biased for BJH, but I'm sure Hawk could hold his own. Y'all forgetting, Hawk was a HS wrestler at state, and I think he went to community college wrestling too.
      Fun fact, my uncle was head wrestling coach for Columbia River college ( Vancouver) he recruited Matt Borne ( Doink) but Matt took off for WCCW, and didn't say anything B4 he left. So my uncle went to his last known address, and Tony Borne ( famous 70's wrestler) answered the door : " wth do you want"?
      Tony was a mean old bastard! So u know where Matt got his legendary toughness from. Ric Flair even said Matt was 1 of the toughest.

    These dudes were special. A joy to watch in the Golden Age of Wrestling. My all-time favorite tag team is The Road Warriors. I was Hawk and my best friend was Animal. Crazy memories and tons of fun. For those of us that remember, Billy Jack Haynes was one of the toughest dudes in wrestling but sadly was booked improperly with WWF. Billy Jack was a serious butt kicker in previous wrestling organizations.

    This is why the Road Warriors were such a legendary team. Even when they were on a sitcom that exposed some of wrestling as "work", they made people believe how tough they could be. The straight faced way they cut a promo in one episode where they said they wore the spiked shoulder gear because "They make us look soft.. and cuddly!" actually made people want to watch that show!

      They're acrobats today. Rhea Ripley, Dew Drop, are more manly than any of the guys in WWE . Logan Paul is pretty good I have to admit. N I hate that guy!
      Wrestle to survive today, had/has to grow tho. The Mountie or tug boat or Ultimate Warrior wouldn't fly today. Neither would tough guy NWA style from 1985/6. When it was believed to be real, it worked well. Now that it's known 109% sports entertainment, that wouldn't fly either. The ruthless sgression era had a lot more Mic work, and cage( hell im cell, elimanation chamber) stuff that worked, but going into 2010's there had to be something different!! Women's Wrestling being equal to men's. Not just the woke crap part of it, but it's actually very good! I mainly just watch women's now.
      2020's - u got ur Hollywood social media acrobats now
      1986 WWF style today would fall flat. We probably wouldn't even watch it hardly
      Men are more betas now, instead of steroid head alpha's. Besides, with concussions, wrestlers today work more on body to body, so the poor brain is spared. And yes, PED:s are banned and regulated now in wrestling, so there isn't any 285 6 5 muscle heads anymore ( well.... myself, but bad assert had left the building).
