It's a sad day for anyone who's a wrestling fan (yes we know it's not real).

Just read Dusty died yesterday at 69 years old. No cause yet released.

Kind of comes out of nowhere. He was one of the greats though.

Loved watching him wrestle! All those epic battles he had with Ric Flair and when he would cut his head open with the razors. Dusty's forehead looked like someone took a weed-eater to it.

Big Dust, the "Bull of the Woods", "Son of a Plumber", "The American Dream" was an icon in the business. He was a huge influence on Ric Flair. He'll be missed. The reason for death hasn't been announced but I'd bet it was some kind of cancer. His body was a shell of it's former self at the end.

Poor Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan is probably next. This is a somewhat recent picture. I couldn't believe when I saw this...

As a side note, I do a helluva Dusty Rhodes impression.....

Neither did I. Doesn't look anything like how I remember when I was a kid.

Heenan looked like what you remember him as a kid up until about a year/year in a half ago. Cancer has turned his face/body into what looks like one of those shriveled up apple head characters.

Amen. I told my girlfriend that if that ever happens to me, take me behind the garage and "Old Yeller" my ass.
