I remember really liking this guy when I was a kid. Wasn't he dubbed as one of the "bad guys" in the WWF back then?

Anyhow, RIP Bam Bam

All I remember about BBB is that his special move in one of my Genesis games was some sort of move involving his belly.

He was amazingly agile for his size.

Unlike many of the recent pro wrestler deaths, his death was not likely due to drugs and alcohol. I heard was that he was fighting an infection related to his diabetes.

One of my brother's friends worked for the Pontiac Silverdome when there was a wrestling event there, and they all got front row tickets for it. During one of the matches, Bam Bam got tossed from the ring and was walking past my brother who yelled to him "Kick his ass, Fatass!". Bam Bam turned and pointed to my brother and goes "That's RICH Fatass to you!"
