Reply #2 - Dec 13^th, 2007, 11:05am The name was changed from The Southern Boys to the Young Pistols before the heel turn. The reason for the name change was the company felt "The Southern Boys" name sounded to regional.

I thought they had a ranch in Cheyenne, Wyoming Grin

Which I never understood that. Did they move to a ranch together. I remember they were originally billed in localized house show promos as "The Young Guns" This was during the height of popularity for the western movies with Emilio Estevez. Shortly after that, and before they ever debuted on TV with the gimmick local promos were changed to "the Young Pistols." I guess 20th Century Fox didn't like their copyrighted name making somebody else some cash so they stopped it before it got going.

I believe their first televised appearance with the new team names was at Wrestle War 91. They just came out to wrestle Rip Morgan and Jack Victory with new outfits,a new team name, and a new announced hometown
