Meltzing Pot Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Kind of a random question, but.... what wrestler or wrestling-related person's death would/will likely impact you the most when it happens and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Already happened. Eddy, Benoit, and Savage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianChris Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Kind of a random question, but.... what wrestler or wrestling-related person's death would/will likely impact you the most when it happens and why? Michael Sweetser. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Of those alive now, probably Daniel Bryan. Watched his whole career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakk_Sabbath Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Kind of a random question, but.... what wrestler or wrestling-related person's death would/will likely impact you the most when it happens and why? I think Vince's death is going to affect the entire wrestling world in one way or another. Of course, I think his mother is still alive at 90-something so he could easily outlive a lot of people, myself included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Probably Bret because he was my hero as a kid and Vince obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacelle Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Bret would hurt the most. Prior to that it was Savage & Pillman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I'm nearly 100% with Ace. Macho, Eddy, and Benoit are all gone. Of those alive, it's probably Austin or Punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 If it happened tomorrow? Negro Casas because he is still so relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Myself, Ethan HD and Mike Santiago were doing a roadtrip to a DOA show in Willamina, Oregon when we heard of Savage's death. We had to pull over for a while and just let it out. That one really, really, REALLY hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeball Wizard Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Roddy Piper. He isn't so much relevant anymore in the current landscape but childhood heroes are gonna be tough. Same goes for Hogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyMax46 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 So...any credence to the Okada/Nakamura/WWE rumors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyWhioux Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I'd put Hogan and Flair right up there with Vince. Like, I still don't 100% believe/accept that Dusty is dead even though I know he is. My denial with them will last even longer, because I can't even fathom wrestling existing without those 3 guys. But it will. Even those guys will die. Everyone does. Except Jake Roberts, of course, who somehow functions as his own Portrait of Dorian Grey and stays with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyWhioux Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I miss Warrior way more than I ever thought I would, too. EDIT: obviously Bret too since I had some mental block where I couldn't even allow myself to mention him dying even hypothetically, such is my ingrained adulation of The Hitman.

Raziel Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 So...any credence to the Okada/Nakamura/WWE rumors? It's that time of year. Plus they'll all be in Brooklyn the same weekend. Okada's about a 96% lock to win the IWGP Belt Sunday, so there ain't much there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Rovert posted the rumor on Twitter, and when I tried to find more info, I just saw that they were supposedly holding tryouts in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
