Sadly we were just talking about him the other day, but King Kong Bundy died today.
I remember that he was bought into WWE as a monster for Hulk Hogan to fight.
He was well known as a monster heel who demanded a 5 count to end his matches. Its funny, because we remember his WWE run but he was only with the company for 3 years, Famously known for his feuds with Andre the Giant, his tag team with Big John Stud and his cage match against Hogan at Wrestlemania 2 Which I remember fondly because my dad took me to watch it on closed circuit TV at the dome, at least I think it was the dome).
I also remember that he was in a wrestlemania 6 man tag team match that involved little people, and Bundy almost killed Little Beaver with an Elbow drop.
I also remember seeing him at a live event where he threatened to slap the taste out of my best friends mouth because we were heckling him so hard.
RIP
