Viola smith was genuinely fantastic. I'd say I'm surprised she isn't championed more by woketards, but I'm fine that way.

107 is an amazingly long life.

I though he was dead ages ago but Samsung was hiding it.

That would imply that woketards have any respect for history and the work that those in the past have done to make a brighter future for the rest of us.

Wokeists tend to think anything pre-1960s is "bad" because it's "traditional" or whatever.

Isn't he the one who had the crazy daughter?
She was dealing drugs and used the company jet to deliver the goods, or am I thinking of someone else?

Yeah, thats the guy.

His other daughter killed herself in NYC as she was starting to think she was about to get arrested in relation to it but all that had happened was she got searched by TSA two flights in a row iirc

RIP Tracy Smothers, pro-wrestler. He was 58.

Also known as a member of the Full Blooded Italians, hailing from Nashville, Italy or just "Southern Italy". He was about as redneck as you could get.

So many pro wrestlers die young. Is it just the roids or beating the hell out of their bodies or something else?

Pretty much but also had partying and long work schedule with no breaks or heath care. Unless you can move into acting or a bigger figure, a wrestling career is quite miserable especially with WWF monopoly.

Well...he died from cancer so...?

But @Billy_Sama is right, unless you're making WWE/AEW money, you aren't making money. Hell, good ring gear and boots alone cost me $600. If you're smart with your marketing and hustle the hell out of your merch, you MIGHT break even or come up a little.

He must have challenged someone to a dance-off TO THE DEATH and finally lost.
