Lee Noble dead at 33.

Updating the notable wrestlers or wrestling personalities who are older than or will turn 70 in 2021. As you can see from the Wiki list, not yet dead old timer wrestlers keep being found down the back of various sofas as no one was keeping records in the 50s - however, I've stuck to adding the few new names who might get you a QO in various deadpools. Caswell Martin (born 1932) lives, for example, but wont pick up a QO for anything, outside of maybe the Deathrace. 1922 - Joe D'orazio 1926 - Bill Mercer 1929 - Samson Burke 1931 - Tony Marino, Hank Garrett 1932 - Dominic Denucci, Gene LaBell 1934 - Bob Uecker (WWE HOFer, baseball player) 1935 - Jack Lanza, Hisashi Shima, Dory Dixon, Ted Lewin, Earl Maynard* 1936 - Eddie Sharkey 1937 - Mark Lewin, Jim Breaks (age given when arrested), Angelo Mosca, Paul Vachon 1938 - Jody Hamilton, Ted Turner 1939 - Billy White Wolf, Bill Watts, Jim Herd 1940 - Baron Van Raschke, Iron Sheik (circa), Sweet Daddy Siki, Les Thatcher, Adrian Street, Alan Kilby, Spiros Arion 1941 - Abdullah the Butcher, Dory Funk Jr, Gino Brito, Ivan Putski, Thunderbolt Patterson, Kendo Nagasaki 1942 - JJ Dillon, Mil Mascaras, Jimmy Valiant, Ken Patera, Afa, Johnny Saint, Jerry Jarrett, Ole Anderson, Jack Veneno 1943 - Antonio Inoki, Superstar Billy Graham, Bill Dundee 1944 - Jimmy Hart, Terry Funk, Butch, Tiger Jeet Singh, Bobby Duncum Sr, 1945 - Ronnie Garvin, Sika, Vince McMahon, Pete Doherty, Colonel DeBeers 1946 - Gerry Brisco, Tony Garea, David Crockett 1947 - Luke, George Wells, Ax, Teddy Long, Killer Khan, Tommy Young 1948 - Black Bart, Sgt Slaughter, Linda McMahon, Carlos Colon, Greg Gagne, Great Kabuki, Tiger Chung Lee, Rob Fuller 1949 - Ric Flair, Dave and Earl Hebner, Jerry Lawler, Jim Brunzell, Bob Backlund, Stan Hansen, Don Muraco, Mike Adamle, Kevin Sullivan, Paul Orndorff, Zeb Colter, Austin Idol 1950 - Iceman King Parsons, Genichiro Tenryu , Greg Valentine, Bob Orton Jr 1951 - Bruce Hart, Jesse Ventura, Larry Zybysko, Skinner, Riki Choshu, Buck Zumhofe (a horrible, horrible person) *won some tag titles with a very young Rocky Johnson so his route to an obit is "Rock mourns friend of dad" - very very slim but not non-existent! 1950 and 1951 have no staying power so far.

Lee Noble's peace is prized by defending champ maryportfuncity, who punches in a unique hit. 40 base points plus 16 in bonus delivers him a heavyweight 56. And with that is the next scoreboard. In contrast to the colossal hits in February of Spinks, Davies, Menem, and Limbaugh, the March hits so far have been exclusively uniques. 1. Perhaps 214 2. CaptainChorizo 175.32 3.

Disgraceful...

Nawal El Saadawi, probably the leading feminist voice in the Arab world, dead at 89. DDP pick and I assume a QO will be along shortly.

Please stay away from my family.

Lee Noble is out for the count now, and he might end up being a very decisive hits for multiple people. For starters, BuffaloPhil and Chorizo are no longer in a tie, and Chorizo takes a lead in that match. Meanwhile, Perhaps takes a 6 points lead against ThereWillBeDeaths7, and DDT gets his 11 points lead up against Annami. The most consequential matchup might be Book vs An Fear Beag. Their match is tied scorewise. However, because they both had Lorimer joker and Noble is younger than Jim Crockett Jr, Book now takes the lead. Honestly being a cup finalist isn’t a statistically a good thing for the following cup. Indeed, of the 6 finalists from 2017 - 2019, only one made it past round 2 the next year. It could be that An Fear Beag just could not avoid that curse either. YorkshireBanker vs CalebH 4 - 7 Grobler vs msc 0 - 12 Djemba Djemba vs alt obits guy 6 - 9 Theoldlady vs deadsox 0 - 0 Perhaps vs ThereWillBeDeaths7 12 - 6 Book vs An Fear Beag 9 - 9 Markb4 vs maryportfuncity 0 - 6 Quim Reaper vs Wormfarmer 6- 0 HDS vs Clorox Bleachman 12 - 6 DeathByArsenic vs Joey Russ 6 - 0 DevonDeathTrip vs Annami 17 - 6 Gcreptile vs Baby Blue 13 - 3 BuffaloPhil vs CaptainChorizo 6 - 9 Banana vs GreatUncleBulgaria 16 - 6 Spade_Cooley vs Grim Up North 15 - 9 Bibliogryphon vs EtushIsPushingUpTheDaisies 0 - 0

Of course. Just giving a reason why I won't be playing. I prefer a level playing field, where people make their selections in isolation and they are not revealed until the game starts.

Completely pro the Astra Zeneca vaccine and all the rest of them but this side effect definitely needs looking into.

Wait. You can get hair cuts in Austria? Jealous. My hair is super long now and we still cant get hair cuts here and no way i am doing it myself.
