I think that's one of the things he's going to talk about in the upcoming Arn Anderson: The Ultimate Collection DVD set.

Yes. Fun fact: Flair hired Arn for the Horsemen because he was first in the wrestler phone book.

Arn would be the first wrestler In the Phone book because he was one of the first people to own a phone.

I just picture him meeting Ric Flair in preschool. Flair is finalizing his first divorce, and Arn has a full beard and is already balding.

I want to know where Arn came from. He could have gone with any A name. Aaron. Adam. Alex. Yet, he chose Arn? Why?

Simple answer is this - when they decided to make him an Anderson, they gave him a Nordic name similar to Ole's. The name Arn is found in old Swedish, Norwegian and Germanic areas, as was Ole.

I'm surprised there never been a Hans, Sven, and Olaf Anderson.

I think that's one of the things he's going to talk about in the upcoming Arn Anderson: The Ultimate Collection DVD set. I would actually watch that dvd. Arn Anderaon was my favorite Horsemen, even more than Flair.
