Same bloke. But he very rarely wrestles as he is mid-fifties I think. In fact he may just about be retired now.

Wrestles once a year at Wrestlemania for the payday.

Photos I've seen of the ballroom look amazing. Hoping to catch most of the UK Championship this week

Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka has passed away aged 73

He'd only just had murder charges against him dropped because of ill health.

Tyler Bate from Dudley is the WWE UK Champion.

Tyler Bate from Dudley is the WWE UK Champion.

WWE's 2nd youngest champion ever. Rumours picking up steam of a potential weekly UK Show. The UK scene is on fire at the moment which is great especially with World Of Sport coming back on a 10 week trial.

Been a weird year in general for wrestling, the Hardy's returning and Matt potentially bringing the broken persona to the WWE. Goldberg... less said better. Cena tying Ric Flairs 16 world titles.

And of course the Undertaker apparently retiring after losing Roman Reigns.

There was an NXT Special this weekend in Chicago featuring Tyler Bate (from Dudley) v Pete Dunne (Birmingham) for the UK Championship.

If you are a fan of wrestling I urge to you to watch this match - one of the best matches I have seen for a long time.

Bate beat Dunne in the inaugural Blackpool 'extravaganza'.

Bobby "the Brain" Heenan has died at the age of 73.

One of the best trash talkers in the game gone.

Used to love him and Gorilla Monsoon chatting shit on Superstars in the 90's

He did someething quite rare for anyone in the wrestling business he could do all the comedic skits and not damage his character or gimmick. His charisma and on air chemistry with Gorilla monsoon will never be replicated.

Loved the Brain - his commentary on the 1992 Rumble when Flair won will always be a highlight for me

Wrestlemania 34 was last night a very good show with a few surprises!

RIP leon Wight aka Big Van Vader.

Was always scared of him as a kid and in a time of where the WWF was all silly gimmicks he made me believe this stuff hurts and not to mess with Vader

Sad news.

Sad news.

Even more sadder 18 months ago he was saying he needs to be in he hall of fame this year as he said he wouldnt live to see another
