R.I.P Del Wilkes aka "The Patriot" at age 59
Looks like from a heart attack
|
Dang man, RIP
|
I am a huge Del Wilkes fan. I thought his run in WWF was a standout and was always sad it didn't last longer. Also a big fan of him with Marcus Bagwell and his AWA work as The stripper.
LOL I meant The Trooper |
RIP
I remember enjoying him coming in as someone for Bret Hart to beat |
The man who used Kurt Angle’s theme before Kurt Angle! RIP
|
RIP
Ground Zero Bret vs Patriot was good |

I HATED the Patriot because I was a 15 year old good ol Canadian boy who hated those God Damn Americans! |
I looked him up recently and he looked pretty dang healthy. A shame.

There was a lot of good talent that came out of GWF (Global Wrestling Federation). Like, a lot a lot. Like, without GWF, we may have never gotten Alex Porteau (not much of a loss, but it could have been worse). or Buff Bagwell (like I said, it could have been worse. He was Handsome Stranger.) or JBL (He worked as John Hawk). or Raven (Scotty Anthony, later Scotty Flamingo). Or the Patriot. Or Jerry Lynn (his big program here helped redefine Indy Wrestling) Or the Godfather (as Soultaker, IIRC). Or X-Pac (as Lightning Kid, who feuded with Jerry Lynn). Or Booker T (as a G.I. Bro & as 1/2 of the Ebony Experience)

Or Francis "Crybaby" Buxton
|
So fork over my money for lifting it for you... Bux-ton!
