Brings back a lot of 80's memories. RIP George.

TBH, thought he had already passed younger. Glad he was able to live longer than most.

Looks like Ivan "The Russian Bear" koloff has also passed away at the the age of 74, due to liver cancer. Damn!

I saw both of those yesterday....those guys were a big part of my childhood...I was a HUGE wrestling fan!

I was sad to see this news as well. My father and I used to have great times watching wrestling on TV and at the nearby arena when it came to town. I think the Iron Shiek is still alive and kicking. Rick Flair seems to be doing well too.

He was actually a very cool guy. Met him a couple times many, many years ago. He was a teacher in the suburbs north of the city. Super great man. Loved the persona he portrayed in the ring. He was all about entertaining the crowd. All the good guys go to soon.

 

[Ashop]

He was a legend in wrestling, one I will never forget.

The crazy thing is that those two guys looked old when I was a kid!
