Arn Anderson Would Include Tessa Blanchard And Brian Pillman Jr In Potential New Four Horsemen

Arn Anderson talks the potential of a new iteration of the Four Horsemen.

To many fans in the world of pro wrestling, the Four Horsemen are easily the most iconic stable that has ever graced a squared circle. The group has hosted members like Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, Sting, Lex Luger, and Barry Windham over its near thirty year history.

Recently, Brian Pillman Jr and Brock Anderson have been teaming together both on the independent scene and in certain spots on AEW programming. This has caused some fans to speculate that a new iteration of The Four Horsemen could be coming soon, as Arn Anderon secured the trademark for the group’s name earlier in the year.

On Arn’s latest Ask Me Anything podcast, a fan asked about the potential of a new version of the group the would include Brock Anderson, Brian Pillman Jr, and Tessa Blanchard.

“Well, obviously at some point and some time, I would sure love to see one more successful run by the Four Horsemen renamed. I do own the trademark, which you know, was not easy to acquire and pretty expensive. But our buddy Mike Dawkins made that possible, so not only do Brock and I own our names, we own the Horsemen deal. Brian [Pillman Jr] has a lot of potential. I’m still trying to figure Brian out. That was talked about after the successful outing they had at Starrcast, they had a good match. I think that there’s a possibility that something like that could happen. I think Tessa Blanchard, from what I’ve seen in the past, has a lot of talent. That’s for sure. [She] has a great look, not sure what’s going on with her inner business these days or what her goals are. I don’t know Tessa like that, it’s been a casual crossing of paths maybe three or four times. It’s something to think about definitely.”

Anderson went on to talk about the pressure that would come with the building a new iteration of the group.

“Great point. To put that moniker on some of the versions, I’m not gonna say all of them because let’s just face it, there were a few versions [of the group] that weren’t so good. There were some that flopped, some that failed, but some live in infamy and they’re still talking about them today. That’s a lot of pressure to put on them kids, if they understand what it means. I know Brock would. I think Tessa would, just from what I’ve heard as far as her business sense. I don’t know about Brian, I don’t know Brian that well. I’m trying to get to know him. That’s a lot of pressure to call yourself a Four Horsemen in a new group. When I’m gone, Brock will inherit that trademark and be able to do with it. I know he’ll do with it what I would like, but more so make it their own and make it better. The keyword would be better.”

Recently, Anderson has noted that he’s under contract with All Elite Wrestling for another year and a half. For more information, click here.
