Haven’t worn my Hot Rod shirt in a few years...

Gonna miss his persona.

If you want to find out what a decent family guy that he was, look on YouTube when he was on Celebrity Wife Swap (swapped with Rick Flair).

Wearing my Hot Rod tee shirt right now.

My all time favourite wrestler. The hype leading up to Wrestlemania was some of the greatest stuff in WWF history.

One story I remember hearing was when he was in LA back in the 70s. He kept tooling on the Mexicans. One match they were booing him and he apologized and said he would play the Mexican national anthem on his bagpipes to show his sincerity.

After the applause died down, he played ‘La Cucaracha’. Classic.
