    The Italian Superman. He was the biggest name in wrestling for about 8 years straight. I saw him as a child at a mall in Cleveland. My friends and I set up a makeshift ring right after.

    The way he was talking a year ago he sounded like he had great doctors and was in great health. Guy was always in super shape. I wonder if his death had anything to do with his wife passing about a year ago.
