DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show special: Rest in peace Bob Armstrong

Southern pro wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer “Bullet” Bob Armstrong has died at the age of 80 following a battle with bone cancer. Bullet Bob is a man I met many, many times, worked around at many shows, and grew up watching. His sons Scott, Steve, Brad, and Brian (Road Dogg) all had success in the wrestling business.

Today, along with excerpts from Dave Meltzer’s Wrestling Observer obituary for Bullet Bob, I remember and pay tribute to one of my favorite pro wrestlers ever, my dad’s favorite wrestler, and by-golly one of the best promos in wrestling history.
