RIP Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt (Windham Rotunda)

It's why although I've always been a big fan of Jon Moxley/Dean Ambrose, I mostly just cringe at his matches anymore. It's one thing where WWE has gone way too far in the PG direction where even the hint of blood is avoided at all cost, but where Moxley has gone the last few years it's as if he's trying to prove some kind of point. Many of his matches aren't even wrestling anymore, but scripted BDSM exhibitions - and it's really not entertaining to watch.
He simply replaced the alcohol addiction with adrenaline rush he gets from pain. It's bizarre. These ******** out using light tubes and panes of glass and forks and pizza cutters aren't wrestlers, they're freaks that have convinced themselves it's some kind of masterful storytelling and art. It's awful.
I haven't watched AEW in a long while but you come across clips of stuff and shake your head. I saw Moxley hit his finisher from the middle rope last night and the guy kicked out. Just illogical.
Cody left because he thought he was building JCP with money and the Elite went PWG. Cody lost out and ended up in a MUCH better spot because of it.
*Rant over*
Agree, Aew anymore is just big spots and violence. Their matches don't tell a story nearly as well as wwe.

Paradise Alley is an under rated movie, in my opinion, and Funk played Frankie the Thumper and was outstanding in it.
I have been trying to find the exact quote from the movie, but when the match between Victor and Frankie was finalized, Frankie the Thumper says something like, "For $5,000 I rip the face off my smelly old, decrepit, sweet mother, you puke."

Not a big speculation guy (as I’m about to speculate) but saw on social media he was having heart issues and was dealing with myocarditis.
Strowman also came on as a wyatt family member. He is godfather to his 2 youngest children a 4 year old son and 3 year old daughter.
In light of news of Bray yesterday it looks like wwe is doing what they do when someone on current roster passes in that tonight will be a tribute show and storylines will pause.
Cody Rhodes whose dad Dusty worked with Bray in NXT and wyatt family member Braun Strowman will be in attendance.

A week like this and two questions come to mind…How in the hell is Ric Flair still alive? And how is Sting still an active wrestler?
Mick Foley is another one. He had a match with the rock where he took probably at least 12-15 chair shots to the head.
Windham Rotunda. A name with so much wrestling history.
The WWE has such a history of just junking things just to junk them.

I guess the CTE effect is one thing but the steroid, drug and alcohol abuse is another thing.
