So many tragedies and accidents seem to befall wrestlers in particular.

RIP Mickey Rourke.

Why does he throw 1970's Van Morrisson outta the ring in that clip?

That's him and Junkyard Dog gone......thanks for entertaining a 10 year old Kfallon

bonerm

At least he lived to a right old age (by wrestling standards).

RIP

Oooooh yeahh!

Chris P. Bacon

R.I.P a great wrestler in his day

Grew up watching wrestling alright, but Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks.

Steroids are bad for you kids!!

Was gutted when I heard this today. I grew up on Macho Man, Hogan and Warrior. 58 is old by wrestling standards, but young by any other.

Certainly, Giant Haystacks was a star when I was a lad. The whole drug fueled WWF farce passed me by wasn't it/isn't it only on SKY?

ShadowGal

I used to love the macho man "oh yeaaa"

RIP

Havermeyer

Damn.

So many memories.

Himself, Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior - back when wrestling was good.

The_Kew_Tour

oh ****tttttttttttt!!!!!

RIP though I loved him, when I believed it back in early 90's

partyndbs

Wrestling was **** back then it's basically the same nowadays as that era.....wrestling was beast when it was cool from 97 to bout 2001....was stll alrite for a few years but now it is terrible

That's right. It was a healthy mix of drug users and and big fat guys.

Aoifey!

The world just got a lot less macho

RIP

She died in 2003 or thereabouts.

RIP Macho Man.

Rip macho man Randy savage, the frenzy you used to send me and my brothers into was partially the reason for wrestling being banned from my telly.

legend

Also watching some of the clips, for all its fakeness you'd want to be fairly fit to throw yourself around like that for ten minutes :eek:

When I think of the 90's this image is always one that springs to mind.

Man, he was the basic voice of any wrestler. When anybody tried imitating a wrestler from WWF (back in the day) they always talked like him.

Another notch of my childhood stubbed out.

MagicMarker

I remember seeing him in X-Men, he was fúcking massive, he actually looked like he'd doubled in size, all muscle!!

Such a shame though.

I'm reminded of Andrew Martin aka "Test". He was only 33 when he died, I'm not sure what it is that befalls these wrestlers but they seem to have significantly short lives or they wind up crazy like Chris Benoit.

I wonder will the WWE induct him into the hall of fame next year? It should have happened while he was alive.

RIP Macho Man!

Sanjuro

And so the rapture begins...










.... RIP

Doubt it. The difference between a lightbulb and Vince McMahons daughter was that Macho man could unscrew a lightbulb.
