Martin Lunde, better known by his stage name of Arn Anderson (born September 20, 1958 in Rome, Georgia), is regarded by most professional wrestling experts as the greatest professional wrestler never to win a world title. His career has been highlighted by his alliances with Ric Flair and various members of the elite wresting stable, "The Four Horsemen".

Known as "Double-A" or "The Enforcer," Anderson is considered to be one of the greatest tag-team wrestlers in professional wrestling. In addition to holding the NWA Tag Team Championship belts twice with Tully Blanchard in the late 1980s, Anderson also held the WWF Tag Team Championship (w/ Blanchard) and the WCW Tag Team Championship three times, once each with Larry Zbysko , Bobby Eaton and Paul Roma in the early 1990s. He is also a four-time holder of the NWA/WCW World Television Title.

Along with a DDT for a finishing maneuver, Anderson utilized a familiar array of holds and throws during his career, highlighted famously by his powerful left-handed punch and a spinebuster that was considered by most observers to be the finest in wrestling. Out of the ring, he was renowned for his ability to do quality interviews to further the storylines he participated in.

Anderson is currently retired from the ring due to chronic neck problems and is currently working behind the scenes of the WWE. He is known to occasionally show up in "backstage" segments where he can be seen in the background of a scene. However, during WrestleMania X8, he made a brief in-ring appearance during a match between Ric Flair and The Undertaker.
