3. I already had a very successful career when I arrived in The WWF in 1982. I had a brief but bloody feud with Jimmy Snuka in late 1982-early 1983. I also had the distinction of being co-managed by two WWE Hall of Famers; Fred Blassie and Lou Albano. Who am I?
4. In the summer of 1988 I came to the WWF after some great success in other territories. I was an early candidate for the persona of Mr. Perfect which eventually was given to the late Curt Hennig.

I won the coveted NWA U.S. Heavyweight Title in 1988 and was a member of one of the more successful incarnations of the legendary Four Horsemen.
