I didnt realise that Bam Bam Bigelow died. Bloody hell, a lot of wrestlers died last year

[Nibb]

Mae Youngs as fair bet!

Big Daddy V?

[wizard1974uk]

I'm going for Lex Luger, he's close to popping his clogs right now.

[eggon]

Maybe the Hulkster will go next. He is in divorce proceedings (apparantly) and his son has put a kid in a nursing home for the rest of his life
So my bet is Hulk Hogan.....Legend though

[micko69]

bobby heenan

[DB]

Undertaker, coz he's not really dead you know? its pretend

[daz73]

Horrible list....

Mae Young gotta be a cert..

PS.. Why vader, He hasnt wrestled for ages and im sure his set for life with a successful estate agents company

[demonology]

dunno why but i got a feeling Rick Flair gonna go down this year with a heart attack...
and staying in the ring isn't doing himself justice.........

[DannyLad]

PS.. Why vader, He hasnt wrestled for ages and im sure his set for life with a successful estate agents company

Come on Daz, that aint gonna stop him from snuffin it though is it?

[-G-Man-]

he wrestles every now and then on indy shows. Plus he has balooned in weight over the years, he doesnt look healty at all!

this picture is nearly 15 years old:

hmmmm....I reckon they'll be a surprise one: Kurt Angle maybe

[-G-Man-]

hmmmm....I reckon they'll be a surprise one: Kurt Angle maybe

if he carries on wrestling druged up to the eyeballs on pain killers then it wouldnt suprise me if he suffers a serious injury, or indeed dies.

What a sad morbid thread
But it just shows you how its a hard life keeping you up to some of theese wrestlers standards. I would be gutted if Hulkster or Ultimate warrior died as they were my favourites when i was a kid
i agree tho about rik flair, last time i saw him in the ring he looked old and ragged

[Yorkshire Bantam]

My list is quiet sad but

William Regal - So Many who messed in the past have died just look at last years list and people like eddie etc

Bobby Heenan - This guy keeps getting all the bad luck, i really think he is going to go this year

Kurt Angle - This guy is messed up both phyiscally & mentally, anyone say Benoit 2?

[Tammer]

I'm gonna throw in some randoms:

Jimmy Snuka

Randy Savage

Lex Luger (just saw it had been added earlier, but I'll second it)
