Japan got the same trio:

Here’s the description for Streets of Rage, which is, if you’ll forgive some light editorialization, one of the best beat ‘em ups of all time:

Axel, Adam, and Blaze—ex-cops, the solution to punk pollution. The city’s a war zone, and they’re going out two at a time to give the gangs a kick in the guts.

This is the ultimate in street combat. These city fighters are martial arts maniacs with a battery of 40 individually controllable attacks including jabs, head butts, and overhead kicks. They’re up against a mob of Kung-Fu creeps and axe hurling fiends.

On the streets it’s only two of them against hordes of attacking scum. Slam into pipe-wielding weirdos and bash ’em with their own metal. Throw an uppercut or an elbow smash—these goons keep comin’.
