James "Jumping Jim" Brunzell (born August 13, 1949) is a retired professional wrestler. Best known for his successful tag teams, Brunzell performed for various wrestling promotions during his 21 year career.

Jim Brunzell wrestled for the American Wrestling Association (AWA) throughout the 1970s, primarily as a mid-card talent. In 1973, he made a cameo appearance sparring with Billy Robinson in the film The Wrestler. On July 7, 1977, Brunzell and Greg Gagne defeated 'Black Jack' Lanza and 'Big Bad' Bobby Duncum, who were managed by Bobby Heenan, to win their first AWA World Tag Team Championship. They held the title until September 1978, when they were stripped of the belts due to an injury Brunzell incurred while playing in a charity softball game. The title was awarded to the team of Pat Patterson and Ray Stevens.

During the latter half of the 1970s, Brunzell wrestled in the Mid-Atlantic region and won the NWA Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Championship, a significant singles title at the time, twice.

Lanny Mark Poffo (born December 28, 1954 in Calgary, Alberta), better known by his ring names "Leaping" Lanny and The Genius is an American professional wrestler. Poffo was born in Calgary, Canada, to Angelo Poffo, an Italian American Catholic, and Judy, a Jewish American. He is also the brother of wrestling legend "Macho Man" Randy Savage. Poffo grew up in Downers Grove, Illinois. He still wrestles regularly and is the co-owner of a new wrestling promotion in Canada called Hannibal Pro Wrestling along with Devon Nicholson.

He began wrestling in the NWA territories in the 1970s before becoming a star in his father's promotion, International Championship Wrestling, where he held the promotion's title. Over the course of his regional career, Poffo both tag teamed and feuded with older brother Randy. Upon the ICW's folding in 1984, he joined Randy in the CWA before traveling with him again to the World Wrestling Federation in June 1985. The brother angle was never worked in the WWF and the relationship was never mentioned on-air.

Nicholas Warren Francis "Nick" Bockwinkel (born December 6, 1934) is a retired American professional wrestler. He mainly competed in the American Wrestling Association (AWA) in the United States. He is a former multi-time AWA World Heavyweight Champion and co-holder of the AWA World Tag Team Championship.

Bockwinkel was considered by his peers and many industry experts to be an excellent wrestler, known for his exceptional technical ability and ring psychology. He was also known for his calm, charismatic, articulate promos, which distinguished him from many of his contemporaries.

Bockwinkel began his career in 1955, after a knee injury forced the University of Oklahoma to withdraw his football scholarship. After training to become a wrestler by his father Warren, a regional star in the 1940s, and Lou Thesz, he spent the early years of his career teaming with his father. At the age of 16, he had his debut match against Thesz. He won his first major singles title in 1963, defeating Tony Borne for the NWA Pacific Northwest Heavyweight Championship.
