For a sec I did a double take, and thought it was Nikita Koloff that passed, and went "Noooooooo...".

Still sad.

R.I.P.

Remember when he grew out his hair, and became property of Ted Dibiase?

Honestly, his best look.

RIP


Back when heels in wrestling actually had heat and weren't trying to always be cool

The caricatures in wrestling back then were something else.

So sad Lawler couldn't turn his life around. 2Cool was super popular for a long ass time and could still be a draw. I'm guessing it was drugs?

It was being reported that it was the effects of a suicide attempt in jail for DUI, but it was quickly edited out of his wiki and can't find a good source

Dave says Volkoff had a heart attack a week ago, was told he needed open heart surgery and refused. Was then told he should at least have a stent put in, and refused that too.

Not sure whether it was a money issue or he just didn't want to get operated on. :(
