Would be one of the most tragic & shocking Wrestling Deaths of all time if she gets smoked by that creepazoid fan. Disturbing. Why do they always go for the Alexa Bliss-types. Same with AJ Lee and how much harrassment she got from creepers during her WWE run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He placed 6th in a Mr. America bodybuilding comp in 1956 and Opened a Gym in 1957, but based on his listed age didn't turn 18 until Dec 1958. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That age is certainly false. I had him down as born 1937 which was still surprisingly young for his mid-1950s achievements - no chance was born later.

Spade_Cooley 9,537 Posted March 4, 2021 Rumours on Twitter that Inoki has gone. Japanese deaths always take a fucking age to get confirmed though, so expect an update sometime in mid-August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dead would qualify as that, I guess, but there was a false report the other day too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,476 Posted March 4, 2021 Hisashi Shinma (a DDP pick!) says alive for now, but fuck I don't give him long from this Tuesday video... Another tip from Japan is the original Tiger Mask is apparently very unwell. Given his history with Dynamite Kid, I think he could get a QO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
