Anybody watch Prob Wrestling in the 80’s and 90’s?
Funk was a badass.
And also a halfway decent actor.
He lived a long time for a wrestler. They seem to die young.
Cocaine is a helluva drug! Especially when mixed with steroid rage. I forget the wrestler’s name but I live a mile away from a wrestler who killed his wife and son about 7 years ago.
His name was Chris Benoit. The murders and suicide actually happened in 2007.

He was a third generation wrestler on both parents side.
