Guy was a behemoth of a man and put on a good show for the fans. Sad for the family and this ridiculously low life span for these wrestlers. He actually lived a little longer than some of the recent wrestlers who have died.

Agree. Its not the same but a a class act nonetheless.

King Kong Bundy was a mainstay of Saturday afternoon wrestling on channel 56 (I think)... With Vince McMahon announcing and mean Gene okerlund doing commentary...

They had 2 decades of awesome announcing teams (late 80s early 90s gorilla monsoon and Bobby Herman and attitude era with JR and the king). Nowadays not so much

Each had their different styles, both fantastic. As a team I have to go with gorilla and heenan. The chemistry they had hasn’t been matched since.
