Enforcers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Enforcers were a professional wrestling tag team in World Championship Wrestling in 1991.
[edit] History
The Enforcers were formed when Arn Anderson and Larry Zbyszko started teaming in the later summer of 1991 in WCW. Scott Steiner was injured and the WCW World Tag Team Championship had become vacant because of it. The Enforcers were entered into the tournament for the titles and made it to the finals against Rick Steiner and Bill Kazmaier at Clash of Champions XVI on September 5, 1991.
The Enforcers were known for their dirty tactics and did not fail to deliver upon that at the Clash. They attacked Kazmeier with one of his weights during a power lifting demonstration at the beginning of the Clash. When the match came, they took advantage of his injured ribs and won the titles.
They then began a feud with Barry Windham and Dustin Rhodes and broke Windham's hand in an out of ring attack. Windham and Rhodes had just arrived for an interview in Windham's car and the Enforcers slammed his hand in his car door as he was getting out of the vehicle.
This injury came just before they were supposed to get their title match against the Enforcers at Clash of Champions XVII on November 19, 1991. Nobody knew who Rhodes would get for a partner until just before the match when Ricky Steamboat came out. The Enforcers lost the titles to them at the Clash.
After this Clash, the Dangerous Alliance was formed and the team was split up so Anderson could team with Bobby Eaton.
