Does anyone have a reference showing that WWE was, in fact, going to bring back the Horsemen with Flair, Anderson, Benoit and Guerrero but Austin's walkout caused that not to take place? Because while it seemed somewhat likely at the time, I hadn't actually ever heard that it was going to really happen. ekedolphin 08:11, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

WCW should have been sued by Metallica cause they stole the name of their song and turned it into a stable.

Oh really? Wow, the Four Horsemen formed in 1986 but still managed to steal the name of a song that wouldn't come out for about five years. I always knew Ric Flair was the master of willing and dealing! Eric42 01:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
The Song "Four Horsemen" is off the Metallica album "Kill em All" which was released in spring '83 FYI. GarethM
Rock on, the four horsemen lived before WCW was ever born in the back of Ted Turner's mind. Also, the four horsemen is a BIBLICAL ALLUSION, it cannot be copywrited. The Hybrid Its a Cow!


I have a problem with this article. It refers to Elizabeth and Woman leaving Hogan and Savage. This is incorrect. Nancy Daus Sullivan did NOT accompany Savage nor Hogan, instead accompanying her then husband Kevin Sullivan until joining the Horsemen

Actually, Woman *did* accompany Hogan & Savage. She first appeared with them at Clash of Champions #32 on January 23, 1996. Woman turned on Savage to side with the Horsemen during a match on Nitro shortly thereafter, as she was already with them by SuperBrawl 6 on February 11. Even though she had a real-life connection to Kevin Sullivan, she was with him (in the context of the storyline) in WCW.

[edit] Jeff Jarrett

Is there some particular reason why Jeff Jarrett isn't listed in the Horsemen Members section? I'm pretty sure he was an official member for a short time (I even remember him having a few tag team matches with McMichael), and in fact his time with the Horsemen is mentioned earlier in the article...

    • his 'time' with the Horsemen was more of an angle than everything. it helped fuel the inner conflicts with the Horsemen. i need to rewatch the DVD, but i don't think he was ever an official Horsemen - i think they even made jokes at his expense. Khal 17:48, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


        • The DVD downplays Jarrett's time in the Horsemen - probably both because of TNA and because Arn Anderson doesn't like Jarrett - but I'm pretty sure he appeared on WCW tv as an official member of the Horsemen. A short-lived member, granted. They probably did make jokes at his defense - as I recall, the angle was that Flair went down to injury and tried to bring Jarrett into the Horsemen, and the rest of the guys didn't like him, but Debra kept pestering to bring him in, and eventually left McMichael for him.

            • In reality, Jeff Jarrett was a Horseman, but his time there was forced on "The Four Horsemen". Personally, I would not list him as a Horseman.

If you dont list Jeff Jarrett I wouldnt list Paul Roma because we all know he wasnt really a horsemen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.117.49.133 (talk) 19:33, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
