  1. Glad to hear he had a good long life. So often you hear about wrestlers dying at fairly young ages.
    I realize that he had the pro-wrestling "look" of the time, esp. in a period when his physique would have made him a "body guy" in any promotion. I just wonder what he would have looked like with a good haircut and updated (and short) gear. Anon.
