R.I.P. Dr Death. Class Act. While he was working MidSouthWrestling he lived about 5 mins from me in central la.. Really nice guy. Saw him again 10 years later in Shreveport, la at a GNC and was also very friendly. Hate to hear hear of his death.

I thought he was older than that... Damn.
50 seems to be the cut-off age for wrestlers.

AUSTIN – While Tony Dorsett played with his kids and Archie Griffin and George Rogers played golf Friday at Barton Creek Resort, Earl Campbell was struggling to walk.
Wearing a burnt orange, Texas golf shirt, white knee-length shorts and new Nikes with a Longhorn logo, Campbell used a walker to inch down a window-lined hallway overlooking one of his favorite golf courses.
He took roughly six minutes to cover 40 yards – a distance he used to breeze through in less than five seconds as a punishing running back at Texas and during an eight-year, Hall of Fame career in theNFL, mostly with the Houston Oilers. Still wearing his trademark beard, now gray, he stands at a 45-degree angle, unable to straighten at his lower back. He can no longer straighten his knees, either.
When the walker becomes too much work, he uses a wheelchair that he travels with at all times. During a 40-minute interview with a few reporters on Friday, Campbell was totally lucid one second and struggling to recall names and prominent dates the next.

Oh My !
I saw him in an interview fairly recently (don't know how old the interview was but prob recent) and he looked in great health. He actually looked younger than he really is and I was thinking being black-balled from wrestling was probably a great thing for him.
for the record , I never liked John Stosell ...
but then again who does ?
