Wow, this one hit me pretty hard.
I have the upmost respect for Ernie Ladd and his accomplishments in his life, both in and out of the ring. I remember back in school, in 8th grade, we had Black History Month reports. Everyone did the usual. MLK Jr., Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, George Washington Carver, Rosa Parks, etc. - I did my report on Ernie Ladd. I did hours and hours of re-search, which at the time wasn't as easy as the internet, and scoured magazines, spoke with people and looked through a lot of wrestling books and such. I learned a great deal about his life, his careers, and his family. I gained a great deal of respect for Ernie Ladd, and an A+ in history because of him. Ever since then I've learned more and more about his career, added a number of items of his to my collection and always spoke well of him. This is truly a great loss to the business and the world, and I will definitely pray for him and his family. I am sure he's up there battling it out with Andre the Dummy, JYD and Gorilla Monsoon all over again. R.I.P. |

I never saw much of his stuff, but he seemed super charismatic in the interviews I've seen. From reading about him (and JR has a new blog remembering him on his website) he seemed like a genuinely nice guy too. R.I.P.
So that's Bam Bam Bigelow, Doug Gentry, Cowboy Lang, Mike Awesome, Bad News Brown, Ray "Thunder" Stern, Jim Melby and now Big Cat Ernie Ladd... it's been a rough year for members of the wrestling community passing so far in 2007.

Ernie Ladd along with Bobo Brazil broke down barriers for African American professional wrestlers.
Ladd is a TRUE Legend in the business. |

I'm not saying 68 is old, but it is old for a wrestler.

68 is not a BAD innings. Hell, if I get to 68 I'll be happy. But it's still sad, because he could have had another 10-20 years if it wasn't for cancer. Cancer is a bitch. When are we finally going to find a cure for this piece-of-shit disease?
