Wrestlers/actors

It seems premature, but he just discontinued chemo.

[drol 12,446]

Official denial.

 

A lock for 2025 if he makes it that far.

[Thatcher 2,699]

Rey Misterio (Sr), Mexican wrestler, reportedly dead aged 69. Uncle of Rey Mysterio. 

[drol 12,446]

You ninja'd me. Of course I wanted to announce in an ambiguous way like "Rey Misterio has died".

Agreed, but I wonder if he’s a lock for a QO?

Wrestled for both the WWF and WCW, had TV matches with Stone Cold, Bret Hart and a PPV clash with Hulk Hogan... how could he possibly not QO?

I suppose that even as a wrestling fan myself, he didn’t jump out to me as someone who would be a sure thing. Perhaps I underestimate his degree of fame with the England-based publications. Is this one of those Yahoo aggregator-type things?  
 

You present a fairly convincing case considering his associations with household name wrestlers.

Your comment confuses me sir.  If a wrestler from the WWE/WWF could not get an obit, why would we have an entire thread related to Wrestlers?

On the British scene, it has been posted over on the Wrestling Heritage forum that Peter “Tally Ho” Kaye, probably best remembered as one of the trainers on “The Big Time” was counted out at some point during 2024.

names 1940-1942:

Baron Van Raschke (1940) 

The Iron Sheik (1940? 1942? - 2023) Looked half dead for ages but that hasn't stopped his social media accounts from posting tons of messages each day.

Sweet Daddy Siki (1940) Retired from karaoke hosting in June 2022.

Les Thatcher (1940) Had covid and pneumonia in early 2021.

 

Sweet Daddy Siki dead at 84 or 91.

Now also hearing from the same source that WoS era regular Larry “Black Jack Mulligan” Coulton was counted out overnight.

Black Bart has now been moved to hospice - I kind of thought he was in something like that already:

Surely as you say, mate, but the Sun is already covering his admission to hospice care.
