"The Enforcer" Arn Anderson

A student of mine - his ring name is "The Bonesaw" - asked me who my all-time favorite wrestler was. Tough one.

I loved me some Ultimate Warrior. I loved me a nasty DDT from Jake Roberts. But favorite ever? I almost said Sid Vicious/Psycho Sid, but I gave the nod to Double A, Arn Anderson, one of the original Horsemen. He wasn't flashy and he didn't cut a terribly exciting promo, but God damn could he wrastle - technically sound, powerful, and intimidating. His accent is cool and something about his name - if that's even his real name - suggests that he loves America. And he has as beard. I also liked that he rose to prominence in the NWA and WCW.
