The Cream of the Crop-Superstars Profile#56

The Brain Busters 

Real names: (AA) Martin Lunde (TB) Tully Blanchard 

Home: (AA) Minneapolis, MN (TB) Calgary, Alberta, Canada 

Membership: Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Bobby "the Brain" Heenan

A.K.A.: Super Olympia, Midnight Stallion 

Finisher: Spiked piledriver

Background: If you can't get all four, why not settle for two?

The Four Horsemen were probably the most notorious gang to ever come out of the Southeast. Naturally Bobby Heenan wanted them to work for him, but Ole Anderson cussed him out and hung up the phone. 

When Arn and Tully found themselves on the outs with their management, Bobby was there to swoop and offer them double whatever Ric Flair was giving them. One phone call later, the Heenan Family had two new members. 

Their tenure was...ok. Not groundbreaking, and frankly they didn't exactly pop against some of the more colorful Superstars but they did smack around Strike Force, so that has to count for something.
