Sad news.

A huge part of my TV entertainment growing up.

A lot thought he played Buzz-Saw in "The Running Man" along side Arnie Schwarzeneggar ...

He was certainly larger than life

RIP Hulkster
You never know
Give it a couple of hours they will announce he’s stood up, pointed at the grim reaper, no sold all his punches and then leg dropped him

Absolute stalwart through my childhood. Massive fan of the Hulkster. Even till the end he could out perform the best of today's wrestling stars.

Need more role models like him these days

RIP brother

Apart from the actual wrestling part (not that important) one of the greatest ever to pro wrestle. All around a deeply unpleasant human and an incredibly shameless liar. RIP.

He was a great wrestler.

Both things can be true.

Depends which you think is most important really.
Actually ….. he wasn’t a great wrestler.

He was a great entertainer. But he wouldn’t sell for others, he had about four moves and arguably he was as at fault as anybody for the downfall of WCW.

Great entertainer though.
