If you look at the last thread on this, I had Greg 'the Hammer" Valentine.....I will stick with him.

Is Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart still alive?
I think everyone else from the Hart Foundation is dead(except Bret).

Yup, he's still around...he's doing the high school circuit, as a matter of fact, he's due to appear close to where I work in another week or two.

Here is a site that I just found that lists all deceased wrestlers. It has yet to be updated with Candido but it should help.

I had the Snake in the last one, so do I get to keep that pick or do we share it?

If not then I'll take Dusty Rhodes. He looks awful.

Would you believe Abdullah the Butcher is actually a guy by the name of Larry Shreve! Just never struck me as a Larry. He's now around 65 years old, lives in Atlanta, and runs his restaurant, Abdullah the Butcher's House Of Ribs and Chinese Food!!!! He still does a few shows a year, mainly for the NWA.

Wow, that's a lot of heart attacks, quite a few suicides too.

I will pick Lex Luger. I didn't read all posts so let me know if he's been taken.

Mine is: George "The Animal" Steele

Goodluck.

Shoebottom,
I read about hairy George years ago as I loved his act and he is actually very bright and has a masters degree and was a highly successful high school football coach in Michigan for years.
His real name is Jim Myers and I think he's retired today living in Florida and has a normal family and life and has been very successful outside the ring!
If I remember I think he tried out for the Lions years ago and injured his knee and had to retire from playing football. I don't remember for sure but he may have gone to Michigan State but the point is he is the complete opposite from his act as a Neanderthal who drooled after the late Miss Elizabeth!

Who are those two old chicks who sometimes went on the show??

Mable i think it is. Either way, my vote is for one of those two old ladies.

I was always under the assumption George was a college professer. I almost remember reading that about him.

Mable was the big fat black guy who wore that purple pants and bleached his mohawk. He wrestles under the name "Viscera" now.

I think you are talking about Mae Young and The Faboulous Moolah. Excellent pick BM!

I'm going with Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake.
