The Hunter Brothers are the professional wrestling tag team of American brothers Rick Hunter and Scott Hunter. The team debuted in 1989, and competed in promotions such as Xtreme Championship Wrestling, New Japan Pro Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling and the International Wrestling Federation, winning in the process ten world tag team championships, before disbanding in 1998. The brothers began teaming together on the independent circuit in the early 2000s, and in May 2007, they were reunited in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
They are one of only two tag teams to win the IWF World Tag Team Championship, the WCW World Tag Team Championship and the IWGP Tag Team Championship in professional wrestling history (the other being the Dudley Boyz/Team 3D) and the only team to achieve that before WCW was purchased by the WWF.

1While this Mid-Atlantic promotion is an NWA affiliated promotion, operates out of the same region as the first Mid-Atlantic promotion, and has revived some of the championships it used, it isn't the same promotion. The original Mid-Atlantic promotion was once owned by Jim Crockett, Jr. and was sold outright to Ted Turner in November 1988. The promotion was then renamed World Championship Wrestling.
