About Brad Armstrong (wrestler)
Robert Bradley James (June 15, 1962 – November 1, 2012), better known by his ring name, Brad Armstrong was an American professional wrestler best known for his appearances with the promotion World Championship Wrestling in the 1990s. He was the son of wrestler "Bullet Bob" Armstrong and brother to professional wrestlers Steve, Scott and Brian. == Professional wrestling career == === National Wrestling Alliance and World Championship Wrestling (1980–1995) === Brad Armstrong began his career three weeks after graduating from Wheeler High School, wrestling his first match on July 4, 1980, at the age of 18. In 1984, he moved to the Georgia territory of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), Georgia Championship Wrestling. During this time, Armstrong began teaming with "White Lightning" Tim Horner. He was also involved in an angle with Tommy Rich, who was feuding with Ted DiBiase. After Rich lost to DiBiase in a "loser leaves wrestling" match, he put on a mask and came back as Mr. R, who DiBiase insisted was really Rich. On February 18, during a TV match for DiBiase's NWA National Heavyweight Championship, Rich visited announcer Gordon Solie and DiBiase unmasked Mr R, only to find that it was actually Armstrong, who pinned DiBiase to win the championship. Armstrong also held the NWA National Tag Team Championship twice that year, once with his father, and once with Horner.
