The Batten Twins
The Batten Twins were a professional wrestling tag team, consisting of twin brothers Bart and Brad Batten. They performed under the "Batten Twins" name in Central States Wrestling, Continental Wrestling Association, International Championship Wrestling, Jim Crockett Promotions, Southern Championship Wrestling, Texas All-Star Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling, and the World Wrestling Council, and the name U.S. Express in World Class Championship Wrestling. The team also appeared in various independent promotions during the 1990s including, most notably, Atlantic Coast Championship Wrestling, IWA Mid-South, Smoky Mountain Wrestling and Southern States Wrestling.
A popular tag team in the Southern United States during the 1980s, the Battens faced off against some of the top tag teams of the era.〔 They began their wrestling career working for the Poffo family in 1983. As identical twins, the brothers were a rarity in pro wrestling at the time of their debut.〔 Their tenure in the NWA's Central States territory saw them engaged in a long feud with Sheik Abdullah.〔 They held the NWA Central States Tag Team Championship a record four times, defeating The Midnight Express, the Midnight Rockers, Sheik Abdullah and Akio Sato, and Bobby Jaggers (in a singles match) for the title.〔
The Battens were also major stars in Puerto Rico during the late-1980s where they won WWC Tag Team Championship four times and the WWC Caribbean Tag Team Championship twice.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Batten Twins Profile )〕〔 Their unexpected "heel turn" made them one of the most hated wrestlers in the country. After returning to the U.S., the Battens continued wrestling on the Southern independent circuit until the early-2000s. In April 2005, The Batten Twins ended their 23-year career with a retirement tour of their home state.
==Early life==
Bart Tammy Batten and Bradley Jay "Brad" Batten were born to Marjorie (née Hayes) and Jack Batten in Mount Hope, West Virginia on September 8, 1958. They were involved in youth sports at an early age. In 1969, the brothers were featured in ''The Charleston Daily Mail'' about identical twins who participate in little league baseball. Both brothers played football from junior high to college with Bart attending West Virginia State University and Brad going to Glenville State College. As both schools had a longtime football rivalry, the brothers often played against each other but with Bart as a wide receiver and Brad a running back they were never on the field at the same time.〔 In addition to teaching school, Bart Batten went on to play two years of semi-professional football for the West Virginia Rockets.〔
