All these wrestlers dying young, such a shame.

Young?! The guy was 101. For a pro wrestler that is a fine achievement.

R.I.P.

Rest in Peace.

Who holds the honor or oldest now?

Sad to hear about that.

RIP Abe. Truly a great, with a very interesting story.

Much respect to his family and friends, and God Bless him.

Hogan's aiming to beat Coleman's record. He wants to job to death when the actual Four Horseman reign terror and pestilence upon the Earth.

<font color=white>Pfft, 101 is nothing.

Flair will still be in the ring when he's 106.</font>

All jokes aside, I have a great respect for anyone who has laced up their boots and took bumps in the name of a show.
Rest in peace.

All jokes not aside, WHY COULDN'T IT BE THE WARRIOR THIS TIME!?!?!?!?!!!!!

Although officially he will only be recognized as being 103. :shifty:

Jobbed to death? :)

All these wrestlers dying in about a month span. Pretty soon, Vince McMahon is gonna hold a press conference and say "5 guys died in the past month." *BANG!* Pat Patterson shoots himself. Vince says "Make that 6" *BANG!* "Make that 7."

A wrestler dying from just being old.

That seems like a rare occurrence.
