    How I despise seeing the word "cancer". If cancer were a person I would love to kick the crap out of it.

    Great wrestler. Big loss.

    RIP DR D.

    His last match. It's not an easy watch but his speech at the end got to me and I have a limited knowledge of his career. A brave man.

    Aw justy spotted this now after being away for a few days. Loved him and his matches so much, whether it was in the Varsity Club in JCP, or tagging with Gordy or his epic matches with Kobashi and Kawada in Japan.

    One of the genuinely tough guys in the world of wrestling, its nearly a surprise he succumbed to cancer in the end.

    RIP big lad, they don't make em like you anymore.:(
