Good team obvious Road Warriors rip off but most brute strength teams in the late 80's were. I at times did find them entertaining .

Thanks for posting this W-OLF Demolition were the first ever tag team that i saw when i started watching wrestling at Wrestlemania 6.Az And Smash were great as they used to come out in wicked costumes with all the leather and studs,Just like a couple of characters from Mad Max,And their theme song was pretty cool to.
They were never the same when they added the third member Crush (Bryan Adams) as then they just became a joke.....and then of course when they finished Barry Darsow stayed on as Repo man a character that sucked so bad it hurt....

The Repo Man ruled damn it

demolition were just a road warriors rip off

thanks

great post

Yeah, Repo Man was pretty cool.

Demolition were a classic team, even if they were just an LOD ripoff.

Demolition were brilliant. Even if they were a rip off of the great LOD

LOD ripoff lol ya right lol

Thanx for the info, I loved Demolition.
