Power Team USA was a group of bodybuilders put together by Red Bastien and Rick Bassman in California in 1985. Bastien planned to train them to become wrestlers but soon after he broke up the groups when he found out they couldn’t do anything decent in the ring. The group consisted of Jim “Justice” Hellwig, Steve “Flash” Borden, Mark “Commando” Miller, and Garland “Glory” Donnoho. After the split Miller quit the wrestling business and so did Donnoho after a short stint wrestling in California as “The Myth”. Hellwig and Borden teamed together in independent federations as the Blade Runners. The group did not last long and Hellwig went on to be The Dingo Warrior in Texas and then the Ultimate Warrior in the WWF. Borden went on to be Sting in NWA/WCW.
