4 Horsemen Question

> Watching ICW (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_World_Class_Championship_Wrestling) videos from 1990 and Pez (Shaska) Whatley was introduced as "One of The Original Four Horsemen"  but I am seeing now record of this anywhere

Could be some deal where he teamed with Tully in 1982 in Georgia or something.  They play games like that a lot in THIS BUSINESS.

  2. They didn't mean the wrestling stable. Pez Whatley was War.

  3. Somebody lied about a wrestler's past, in order to make him seem like a bigger deal? WHODATHUNKOFIT

  4. They retconned Gene Anderson into the Horsemen, so why not Pistol Pez?



    Oh, because Gene halfway made sense (MNWC lineage) and Pez Whatley was terrible.

  5. Maybe they meant the biblical version.

  6. Uh No!!! Paul Roma and Mongo were bad enough. Pez was a member however of the more famous Jive Tones with Tiger Conway Jr. Now that was a super group!

  7. I don't think they retconned him. They just talked about how great of a team him and Ole were and it paralleled the Ole/Arn team

  8. I thought he was PEZtilence.

  10. If you search around YouTube, in the interviews leading up to Ole being kicked out of the Horsemen, you can find a clip where Ole says something along the lines that the "Four Horsemen started" with him & Gene, and then Flair and Arn became involved, and that Tully was an "outsider" because he wasn't 'family' (Flair was originally an Anderson 'cousin'). Tully naturally took offense. But outside of that, I've never seen or heard anything htat referrred to Gene as 'Horsemen'.

  11. That's the one. JJ in a subsequent promo plays off Ole's line.

  12. Was the Flair/Arn group the first ever wrestling stable to call themselves the "Horsemen" though? Maybe some small territory had Pez Whatley, Lewis Abraham, Randy Hickey and Abraham Lewis as the "Four Horsemen" back in 1983, only they never got over?
