the best wrestling show I ever saw was in the convention center of a now defunct hotel about 10 years ago. He and Rob Van Dam wrestled by Hardy boys in a hard-core tag match. It was part of wrestle con during wrestlemania 31 weekend. like a guy that worked at the hotel or was a waiter or a table busser when he wasn’t wrestling that whole weekend. He pretty much embodied what Mickey Rourke was trying to capture in the film the wrestler. CSB
Good for him for making it to 60. You’d be hard pressed to find another career with a shorter life expectancy than pro wrestler. I can’t think of one off the top of my head. It’s a fucking miracle Ric Flair is still alive.

Yeah, it’s crazy he almost made it to 80, especially doing all the hardcore shit he did.
Like barber college?
One of my favorites of all time. Changed what we knew about pro wrestling.
