After dominating the NWA in 1988, The Legion of Doom are presented yet another honor by Pro Wrestling Illustrated Senior Editor Bill Apter
Pro Wrestling Illustrated Senior Editor Bill Apter makes an appearance on NWA television to present the Tag Team of the Year Award to Hawk, Animal, and manager Precious Paul Ellering.
The Legion of Doom reached the pinnacle of success in 1988, finally winning the World Tag Team Championships in the National Wrestling Alliance, after a dominant reign in the AWA. They would later go on to capture the belts in the WWF as well, which made them the first duo to win the 'holy grail' of all three original world titles.
Hawk, Animal, and Precious Paul Ellering were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011. To this day, they are considered possibly the greatest tag team of all time.
