Tim Horner is a professional wrestler best known for his "Lightning Express" tag team with Brad Armstrong.

Career

Tim Horner started wrestling in 1982 in the Alabama territory. He formed a tag team called the "Lightning Express" with Brad Armstrong and they had a lot of success. They won the Universal Wrestling Federation tag team titles by defeating Sting and Rick Steiner in 1987. They also won the National Wrestling Alliance's National Tag Team titles. Horner then wrestled briefly with the WWF as a jobber.

In the 1990s, Horner wrestled in World Championship Wrestling as the masked Star Blazer and in Smoky Mountain Wrestling (SMW). He was part owner of SMW with Jim Cornette until they had a falling out. Thereafter he competed in WCW as a jobber (for a time, he and Brad Armstrong were the only jobbers who had their own ring entrances).

Pro Wrestling Illustrated (PWI) ranked him # 430 of the 500 best singles wrestlers during the "PWI Years" in 2003.

He is now wrestling on the independents on occasion in the Georgia and Tennessee areas. Recently, he was working for the WWE as a Producer for the SmackDown! brand until October 26, 2006, when he was released along with Ted DiBiase.
