The Bushwackers worked for All Star in the 1990s they did at least one tour and did decent business as far as I can remember. Butch flew into the States for a wrestling convention last and took ill on arrival and died shortly afterwards. The Bushwackers were known to most as a comedy tag team but in a previous incarnation The Sheepherders, they were a hard hitting rule breaking team who spilt both their opponents and their own blood frequently, a far cry from what they became.

Let's not forget, that before joining Vince's circus, the duo were one of the roughest and toughest tag teams on the planet. Riots, blood and gore was the order of the day. There is an excellent interview on the w.w.web, where the guys recall their travels and careers in general. You just have to endure (maybe laugh) at the first ten minutes or so, when the interviewer, for some obscure reason starts the interview while the boys are finishing their lunch of hamburger and refreshment! (A wife also passes in the background a few times also).
