Bam Bam was the shhhhh back in the day... He was one of the 1st tatted up wrestlers. He had the whole flames on the head thing working for him. I wonder what he died of. I am guessing heart attack

 

[smurfie]

WOW, He was one of my favorite wreslters growing up. Being that big and being that agile was just something special !

 

[Buckets]

Alot of those wrestlers back then used off the wall roids and supplements. I caught A thing on Siruis where Hogan was trying to describe the wrestlers lifestlye in the 80's. He said they lived out of control rockstar lifestyles. Wrecking cars, destroying hotels, running through women. it was rather interesting

He hasnt wreslted for a while. I know he was in a bad motorcycle accident in Florida. His g/f almost died. He had lost weight he was down to like 300 lbs, which was not alot for him considering he use to be over 400!... its hard to tell what happend, being only 45 !

Wasn't Brian Pillman's death linked to steroids? What about Eddie Guerrero?
