 Just finished "Animal's" book on the Road Warriors. It's good, but doesn't do much but center on all their matches. Mostly, on how much they could just beat the snot out of anyone they wanted. The Road Warriors were 100% steroid driven, from day 1. Joe says as much. Everything is about big muscles, and simply plowing through "little" people. I wonder Would they have just have "plowed" through Thesz & Hodge? No one is going to tell me Bruiser Brody wasn't as "big and bad" as The Road Warriors. However, he has been quoted as saying, Lou Thesz tied him up like a knot, and that was even in his later years.

Hodge did the same to Brody And both would have sdone the same to the Road Warriros as well |

I've also read, that The Road Warriors wanted to throw the Steiners around, but after a bit, they got tired of selling.
IIRC, they took Animal & Hawk down and made them a pretzel.
The suits about fainted, as it might have killed the RW's image, to squash.
