* '''[[Wrestling/ArnAnderson ARN ANDERSON]]''': Basically made a career as "The Enforcer" of the Four Horsemen, always there as the second-in-command to Wrestling/RicFlair. Even the one time they were at odds in September-October 1995, it was all a setup for Flair to turn on Wrestling/{{Sting}} at ''Wrestling/{{WCW}} Halloween Havoc 1995'' and reform the Horsemen with Wrestling/BrianPillman, and Wrestling/ChrisBenoit being added the next night on ''Wrestling/WCWMondayNitro''.
