Loved the Headbangers. Mattel could have so much fun making those elite figures with all their crazy attire they wore. Should have held the tag titles atleast once, or did they? Im not so sure but they were a wacky tag team that suited the attitude era finely.

I would get grossed out when they'd spit into the air and catch it back into their mouths.
Makes me wanna vomit just thinking about it.

Im not so sure but they were a wacky tag team that suited the attitude era finely. They actually held them for like a month after Stone Cold and Dude Love had to vacate them because of Austin's neck injury. Won them at Ground Zero only to lose them a month later. I remember them facing LOD and it ending in a draw on a Raw, may have been Thursday Raw Thursday. I wasn't a huge fan of them, but I didn't hate them. I do remember HBK smashing a jack Daniels bottle over one of their heads and it leaving a huge gash.

Former WWE and NWA Tag Champions were the Headbangers.
They probably should have had another WWE Tag Title reign in 1998 when they were heels and feuding with the New Age Outlaws, but they kept the heel run for Shamrock and Boss Man, which I get cause of the angle they were doing at the time.

I don't get why WWE has stated that they overstayed their welcome

Their gimmick was perfect for the time. I was never a fan, though.

I enjoyed The Godwinns BCAs once I realized that Phineas was perfect for flap jacking a guy, and Henry was perfect for diamond cutting.... soon their finishing move was "3G!" instead of 3D! I remember I made a Memphis Mafia team consisting of Jeff Jarrett, Brian Christopher, Jerry Lawler and a heel turning Road Dogg, who turned his back on DX. So I had Billy Gunn, X-Pac, HBK and HHH feud with them. Ahhhh.... BCA memories.... it's great!

I loved The Headbangers & I felt they fit in perfectly with the Attitude Era with their outfits, infinitely better than their previous gimmick, The Flying Nuns.
I'd always put on their theme in Warzone, it always got me hyper.

I don't think I will ever be able to forgive you for this. I never noticed that and now my childhood is ruined.

I could never understand why my Blue Blazer figure had loads of other stuff sculpted into his head . They reused the damn Patriot head for him.

Ah.....great times Is that because the Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrett figures had the EXACT same head? I love how Jakks didn't think/care anyone would notice. Whos head was it? Jeff's or Owen's?
