This is going to be one of those years for wrestling topped off with a big death. Hulk Hogan ? Vince Mcmahon? Great khali? Literally not figuratively for Khali.

Well goddammit I'm still waiting for Tom Billington to drop dead, all we read is he's in poor health, mama bathes and cares for him.  Blah blah blah.... it would be Dynamite if he got me a hit this year.

B Brian Blair, now President of the Cauliflower Club, confirms Niedhart's death to Slam/Canoe Sports.

[Thatcher 2,493]

Daily Mirror, The Sun, Metro, Daily Star, Daily Express obituaries for Neidhart.

[drol 12,156]

TMZ reports it was a medical emergency, so probably a heart attack. Surprising, isn't it?

[Sir Creep 7,072]

Stunning.

 

[drol 12,156]

No, it was a fall. Unnatural bonus points for the DDP.

And there I was thinking falling anvils only happened in cartoons.

[YoungWillz 21,250]

I can't find him picked for the DDP.

forgot about billington.If he dies I think thats all of bret's major tag partners dead. Though he didn't team as much with billington as he did with others.

 

Also billy Graham has been at deaths door for about 7 years now.

Also billy Graham has been exaggerating to con folk out of money for about 7 years now.

 

FTFY.

I was a Graham victim two years ago.  I'm in Step 8 of my recovery program.

Every wrestler Bret tag teamed with ten or more times in his career (1976-Goldberg kicking him in the skull):

 

Jim Neidhart Dead

Keith Hart Alive

Davey Boy Smith Dead

Bruce Hart Alive

Dynamite Kid Alive

Wayne "Honky Tonk Man" Ferris Alive

Hércules Ayala Alive

Mr Hito Dead

Scott Hall Alive

Luke Williams Alive

Butch Miller Alive

Leo Burke Alive

Lex Luger Alive

David Schultz Alive

Owen Hart Dead

The Undertaker Alive

Mr Perfect Dead

Dangerous Danny Davis Alive

Randy Savage Dead

Bill Eadie Alive

Shawn Michaels Alive

Bad News Brown Dead

 

Weird that Bret teamed with the Bushwackers more times in his career than Owen.

If you want five more to make up a round 20 for a theme team, five of the next six (Johnny Weaver's dead) are Tiger Jeet Singh, Jim Duggan, Kevin Nash, Rollerball Rocco and Don Kolov (who wouldn't obit).

[Sir Creep 7,072]

I would think (means 20% chance lol) Duggan and Nash would obit.

[Spade_Cooley 9,638]

I meant Kolov (had about 100 career matches, never worked for a US national promotion) wouldn't obit. I think all of that list with the exception of Kolov and Ayala are guaranteed obits. Schultz and Davis might be dependent on a quiet news day though.

[Thatcher 2,493]

Ian 'Doc' Dean, British wrestler, has died aged 48.

 

Edit: Daily Mirror obituary.

The only man to beat Jushin Liger and job to Miss Jacqueline in the same year.

[gcreptile 11,091]

Is wrestling having a particularly bad year?

 

Also, looks like I have to follow Jerry Lawler's twitter account.

Let's see if the UK will also follow the family of the wrestlers. Justin Credible Reveals That His Wife Only Has Six Months To Live.

Justin Credible arrested for "violating a protective order", which could quite possibly mean he's just beaten the shit out of said wife.

Sounds to me like he's got that timeline pretty close then.

Gangrel needs to get onto his lawyer for gimmick infringement.

Rocky Johnson may be a good possibility for 2019. Long time alcoholic, 74 years old wrestler, guaranteed to obit.

Mexican Wrestler Villano  died after heart attack

[msc 18,558]

Villano III, so not one of the WCW pair, that was Villano IV and Villano V. Villano III was referred on one WCW Nitro as "the late, great", however. He outlived WCW by 17 years.
