I don't remember him as a wrestler but the pic of him in the cowboy hat, I remember that.

He and Mick Foley made American hardcore wrestling. Some of their matches in Japan are so brutal they are hard to watch. They beat the hell out of each other as only real friends can do. He was a legend.

Sadly Bray Wyatt also died this week from a sudden heart attack. He was only 36.

RIP Mr Funk. He was also in Roadhouse. I believe he was kicked in the knee by Sam Elliot.

Being from Amarillo I met him several times, had breakfast with him and Dory Jr. once too, they were good people in real life, hate seeing him look like this

I met Foley once many years ago. Also a bunch of wrestlers use to come in the Loves I worked at on their way back from shows in Tulsa. Only name I really remember is Dr Death Steve Williams. Mainly because he asked if I would make him a sandwich while resting one of his tree trunk arms over my shoulders. That man was quiet but very intense and had shoulders you could drive a dirt bike across.

Skandor Akbar was usually with them but never came in the store. One of his wrestlers did but I can not remember his name. Big heavy guy. Was also a tag team and others.

Roadhouse, that’s where I remember seeing him. Thanks!
