Giant Gonzales
Does anyone remember much about how his career with WWE wrapped up? I know he fought Taker at Wrestlemania IX I believe? after that I think he retired. Last I heard of him he was very ill and on a wheelchair. Can anyone fill the blank of what happened to him from WWE to now? did he ever wrestle again after he left WWE?

I thought they continued their feud til King of the Ring where the Undertaker chokeslammed him and pinned him. I think that is how it happened anyways.

Per wikipedia:

González competed as the "Giant Gonzales" during his brief WWF tenure as a heel; managed by Harvey Wippleman. González grew a beard and wore a bizarre, memorable, full-body suit that featured airbrushed muscles with bushy hair attached. He was introduced at the Royal Rumble in January 1993, where he quickly overpowered and eliminated Wippleman's nemesis the Undertaker from the Rumble match despite not being an official participant. The Undertaker defeated Gonzalez at WrestleMania IX by disqualification after he knocked Undertaker unconscious using chloroform.

After another loss to the Undertaker at SummerSlam 1993, Wippleman berated Gonzalez; this ended their relationship and turned Gonzalez into a pseudo-face. Though the foundation was later set for a feud with Wippleman and Adam Bomb, it never truly began, as Gonzales left the WWF in October 1993.

His last match was on February 8, 1995, against The Great Muta in New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Also per Wikipedia:

In short, they describe that he did in fact pass away, broke.

That's sad. I didn't like hearing that......

Last I heard / read he was living in S. America and had a few health problems.

A while back I did see that some company was selling his old wrestling suits [including the famous GG hairy naked man suit] on eBay - along with signed photos of him. Guess that they must have tracked him down, saw he needed money and are now scamming him into selling his merchandise.
