[9.0] "Their work stands the test of time. Incredible stable as heels that set the standard and laid out the blueprint. Only Gordy was really well regarded as an individual, but as a trio they had virtually no knocks or flaws"
[10.0] "The team formula was essentially full proof. Michael was the irresistible force of charisma who had the "rock star" element. Buddy was the pinball who bounced about for the faces, and supplied chicken s#it antics near non stop. Terry Gordy was the muscle and mayhem that only had an equal in the likes of Bruiser Brody. None of them were slow, all of them had dynamite mic skills, with Hayes being a nuclear weapon behind the stick. Trendsetting trailblazers who alone lacked, but together made THE complete and total heel package."
[10.0] "One of the best heel stables of all time. They were like rebels. They feuded with the Von Erichs and made WCCW a name. One of the best heels of all time as a tag team."
[10.0] "Ich würde sagen, die Freebirds waren so ziemlich das geilste Wrestlinggespann der 80er! Wenn ich mir vorstelle zu dieser Zeit 15 Jahre älter gewesen zu sein & in den Südstaaten gelebt zu haben, wären Hayes, Gordy und Roberts vermutlich meine Helden gewesen, denen ich gern ein paar Runden verschiedenster Genussmittel spendiert hätte. Allesamt klasse Wrestler, passend in Szene gesetzt von Promogott Michael Hayes!"
[8.0] "Wunderbares Stable waren einer der ersten Wrestler die mich zu diesem Sport gebracht haben. Unvergessen und inzwischen legänder ihre Rivalität mit den Von Erich Brüdern. In der WCW bz. in der NWA wurden sie dann nur noch in der Undercard eingesetzt schade."
