10 80s Wrestlers Who Would Be Awesome In Today's WWE

10. The Road Warriors

Before you claim that The Road Warriors had a tired gimmick that would look dated today, look no further than The Ascension. While their run on RAW has stalled, they were popular enough on NXT to get promoted to the big show.

So there's no question that a team in the style of The Road Warriors could succeed today, with the right mic skills and in-ring style. The sort of goth/metal look they sport never really goes out of fashion, which is why The Hardy Boyz, The Ministry of Darkness, and even The Undertaker himself have all found success over the years with similar (though not exactly clone) gimmicks.

The attitude, the look, the ring work - there's no way The Road Warriors wouldn't be just as big today as they were back in the eighties.
