Wow, R.I.P.

RIP Sherri, You were way too young to leave us, but your in a much better place and I will never forget all that you have done for Pro Wrestling.

mrslackalack 06-15-2007 10:05 PM

It is crazy because I believe it was Fourfifty just Tues or Wed that had her as one of the anwsers to the Three of a Kind game linked with HBK, Dibiase and Flair, and she was also interviewed for the Families DVD that just came out a couple weeks back.

mrslackalack 06-15-2007 10:06 PM

2007 has been a tragic year of passings (Bam Bam, Awesome, Skaaland, Ladd, Sherri etc) It has def been the most tragic since 2003 (Liz, Perfect, Hawk etc.) I just pray that no more happen this year.

Yeah. And I just got the Ladder Match DVD and like right after I finished watching Bret/Michaels with Sherri I read that she had passed. :(

LoDownM 06-15-2007 11:46 PM

Wow, thats a mood killer right there :(

KingofOldSchool 06-15-2007 11:46 PM

She was just announced last week to appear at our local Wrestling Legends Reunion show in October.

Funny how things work out.

NeanderCarl 06-15-2007 11:47 PM

It's a real shame. Many people call Elizabeth the first 'Diva', and Moolah the first 'lady wrestler', but Sherri was the first woman worth a shit in the business as far as I'm concerned, at least from a 'big-time' perspective. R.I.P., Sensational One.

.......So are you trying to be a cunt or is it just second nature?

NoRoolz 06-16-2007 10:10 AM

R.I.P Sherri :(

Bad Company 06-16-2007 10:20 AM

Not really surprised after seeing her at the HOF, but she was Sensational.
RIP Sherry :(

Gone Mad 06-16-2007 12:58 PM

Oh shit, I thought this was gonna be some fake news thanks to the Vince angle. Damn... and still so young. I never forget her for her days with Shawn and her overall character. They don't make them like that anymore.

RIP Sherri

Sherri was tougher than a $2 steak, but had a heart of gold. Her genuine enthusiasm and love of the business was so evident when she was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame last year.

Sherri could out-cuss, out-drink, and could whip most men’s backsides, as she came up the hard way in the business during the male-dominated days of the old wrestling territories. I have personally never seen a woman as physically tough and fearless as Sherri Martel. She enhanced the career of so many Superstars, including her “Boy Toy” Shawn Michaels, among others.

The Good Lord broke the mold when He created Sherri, and now He has the lady back. I hope Sherri takes it easy on the men folk up in Heaven. We are all going to miss her.

Blue Demon 06-16-2007 01:28 PM

I thought that was a nice little tribute by JR.

Azriel 06-16-2007 04:49 PM

Damn, RIP. What happened? Heart attack?

Seems to be second nature...did this ass use to be Heyman?

JT 06-16-2007 10:44 PM

I started watching around the time that she retired, so I know reletively nothing about her. But from what I do know and what I have read of her, it sounds like she was the old school Victoria...maybe even better. I really wish I had gotten to see her work.

RIP

EDIT: Maybe not retired, but not apart of the big 3...still it's sad to see here die at too early of an age.

mrslackalack 06-16-2007 10:46 PM

Its sad that the WWFs top 3 women in 89-90 (Liz, Sherri, and Sapphire) have all passed on.

mrslackalack 06-16-2007 10:48 PM

Yeah Sherri was an Old-School Victoria type. She managed many of the top stars (Savage, Dibiase, Shawn, Flair, Booker, Douglas) and was slated in WCW at various points to manage guys like Austin, HHH, and Regal,

Ninti the Mad 06-17-2007 06:14 PM

So cause of death is still unknown?

Juan 06-17-2007 07:21 PM

Fuck man, that sucks. RIP :(

You laugh, but mark my words: It'll be CM Punk's listed cause of death when the Heroin takes him.

Interesting that you said that, because I read this today...this may end up being more than just another death:

Quote:

On his Wrestling Observer Live radio show Sunday night, Dave Meltzer stated that Sherri Martel didn't die of natural causes. The case is currently under investigation by law enforcement. Police were in abundance at Martel's mother’s residence in Alabama where the WWE Hall of Famer was found dead Friday morning. More details on the situation will likely be revealed soon as Meltzer plans on talking to the police later today to gather more information regarding her sudden death.
Not only did she die, but someone may have KILLED her?

Oh, and the other paragraph:

Quote:

When Martel passed away on Friday, there were a number of people who were downright embarrassed by the way her death was placed far down on the company's website, under all of the reports of Vince McMahon's "demise." It has led to discussions internally about ending the angle, but in the end, the storyline will likely continue.
A damn shame that such a good angle has to be put into a "bad taste" column because of some conincidental shit.

But still...what kind of enemies did Sherri actually HAVE?!

HeartLess180 06-19-2007 05:13 AM

R.I.P...one of the best HEEL managers from the past.

Well, she did cost Marty Jannetty his match with Shawn Michaels at Royal Rumble 93...:shifty:

I'm gutted by this news though. My earliest memories are Shawn Michaels and Sherri when Marty came back and was refelected in the mirror!!! She was ace.

RIP

Anyone who is enough of a coward to dive through a plate-glass window to escape Shawn Michaels is definitely capable of murder in my eyes.
