Terry Scott Szopinski[1][2] (born March 28, 1962) is an American professional wrestler. He is best known by his ring name The Warlord and for his tenures in Jim Crockett Promotions and the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as one-half of the Powers of Pain alongside The Barbarian.[3][4]

The Warlord's first national exposure was in the NWA territory Jim Crockett Promotions, where Powers of Pain held the World Six-Man Tag Team Championship until they departed the company in 1988 and joined the WWF, where they competed in the tag team division until the team was quietly split in 1990. Warlord then competed as a singles wrestler until departing in 1992 and had a small stint in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1996, where he briefly reunited with The Barbarian as the Super Assassins.
