Texas Tornado was an American competitor robot that fought in the second season of Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors. It lost in the first round of the US Championship after suffering problems with its antenna against Unibite 2.0 and Black Widow, but reached the second round of the Tag Team Terror tournament, paired with Mad Cow Bot, where both robots lost to Sir Force A Lot and G-Force. The robot’s name is presumed to have been potentially inspired by The Texas Tornado, the stage name of professional wrestler Kerry Von Erich.
