RIP GEORGE 'THE ANIMAL' STEELE


Aw man, sad news! Wrestling legend GEORGE 'THE ANIMAL' STEELE has passed away at the age of 79. 

He was one of my absolute favorite wrestlers and a great entertainer - the dude had a green tongue and would eat turnbuckle stuffing!! 


Although Steele was a villain for much of his career, he turned face in 1985 and went on to engage in a feud with Randy "Macho Man" Savage.

Steele lost an Intercontinental Championship match to Savage at WrestleMania 2 and was in Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat's corner when he beat Savage for the title at WrestleMania 3 in what is widely considered one of the greatest bouts in wrestling history.
