Borden and Hellwig sans makeup as the Freedom Fighters
After the collapse of Powerteam USA, Steve Borden and Hellwig decided to continue to pursue wrestling careers. Getting in more experience and training, they formed a tag team meant to tap into the rampant patriotism--or was it nationalism?--of 1980s America and the Freedom Fighters were born.
