MikeCampbell Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 I was having an e-mail conversation with J.D. Dunn concerning The Black Scorpion, specifically his comment that Al Perez was supposed to be the Scorpion. I'd always heard it was Perez on the first night, but was supposed to be The Angel Of Death, which he said made sense since AOD was part of Power Team USA with Sting and Warrior. This got me thinking, who was the fourth member of the group and did they do anything notable in the business? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bix Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Power Team USA was a group of bodybuilders formed by Red Bastien in California in 1985. Bastien intended to train them to be wrestlers, but soon abandoned the plan. Upon disbanding the group, Bastien observed "they have great bodies, but they can't wrestle a lick." The members of the group were Jim "Justice" Hellwig (later the Ultimate Warrior), Steve "Flash" Borden (later Sting), Mark "Commando" Miller and Garland "Glory" Donnoho. Miller never wrestled after the disbanding of the hroup. Donnoho wrestled briefly in California as "The Myth" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingus Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Odd how Sting eventually developed the wrestling skills to go with the body... but now has neither. (And oh yeah, Insert Smarky Comment About Insane Warrior Here.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCampbell Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 What's the source of that little article, Bix? The Wiki entry on Powerteam USA lists Dave Sheldon (AOD) as being part of the group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bix Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Got it somewhere on Google. I've always heard those 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
