Died driving while having a heart attack.. RIP for the Savage.

I remember growing up with him hogan and piper all there glory days for TV. As cheezy as it was those where to good times for wrestling.

[AVGWarhawk]

I remember him as well. My sister watched these guys all the time. I remember Junkyard Dog especially. Probably because he would howl a bit during his act. :haha:

[FIREWALL]

Heart Attack caused by OD on SlimJims. :O:

[ReallyDedPoet]

He was a classic.

Used to watch him when I was a kid:

Could not find a match with him, but found one of an
early Bret hart.

Gorgeous George, he had a restaurant on on Ventura Blvd. and it was painted bright purple. Wild Red Berry, Dr. what's his name???? had the near fatal "Sleeper Hold". Ahhh back in the days when fake wrestling was real.

I used to love watching the Macho man in action ,what ive seen of the current lot none of them hold a candle to the guys back then.
As for showing your age how about The Iron Sheik Vs Hulk Hogan or Sargent Slaughter?:DL

[Sailor Steve]

Back in '99 I was working driving the ski vans, and in the summer I helped arrange tours. We had a visit from wrasslin' promoter Mean Gene, who was in town scouting locations for his restaurant. He and two wrassler buddies were wearing T-shirts that said "Mean Gene's" on the front. On the back they read "The Burger That Says 'Bite Me'"

[Penguin]

I learned to understand yelled English through him, as he was my favourite one from the WWF.:salute:
