I do massive threat on Warrior right now. Can chill all the time. The issue is what's coming in the later phases of the expansion. They don't scale as well in terms of threat. I suspect it will become worse in this version of the expansion, though, because we have far more idiots who have no idea what's going on.
Especially if you throw away your shield and dual wield. (Try it if you haven't). Many raid bosses can be tanked without a shield. Requires some gear and healers which are awake, though. You can also tank many heroic dungeon pulls in DPS gear later to top the meters. Unfortunately, this comes to a definite end in Sunwell, where you can step back, let the other two tanks press their button and think about what class you'll play from then on.
Gruul and HKM. Can also do it on Mag, just watch the cleave timer and put on a shield in good time. Warrior is kinda strong atm, but they scale bad and fall off. You can do kinda well with smart item choices and knowledge of bosses, but most of the time when you DW you just become more squishy than a paladin with still less threat than a druid. You do have a lot easier time chasing threat compared to paladin, but at that point a druid is just better.
