The Road Warriors
In 1988, The Powers of Pain began feuding with The Road Warriors, with Jones claiming that The Powers of Pain were stronger than their opponents. In a memorable angle that aired on "WCW Saturday Night", The Powers of Pain faced The Road Warriors in a weightlifting contest with $50,000 on the line. The contest ended abruptly when Ivan Koloff blinded Road Warrior Animal using chalk dust, enabling The Powers of Pain to beat down The Road Warriors.
