Hugo Chavez
He died doing what he loved: venting bile.
Oh, they're finally admitting it. Yesterday they claimed that it was only a rumor, but you know how those things sometimes go.
If Sean Penn is a pallbearer at his funeral, the paparazzi should take this opportunity to take a bunch of pictures because his hands will be full and he won't be able to punch them.

I was just about to post that… RIP, I guess the Undertaker will have to do Wrestlemania without him this year.

The last time he was on TV, it was so his other 'son' Kane could lock him in a meat locker, last year, and they never let him out…
you sure know a lot about wrestling.  i used to love wrestling, but that was when cyndi lauper was doing videos with them.  oh that crazy old cyndi lauper.
I was too young to enjoy it then.  I enjoy it now (though i did watch for a bit in 97-99, but didnt start again until summer of 2011). I dont hide my fondness for Pro Wrestling.  I always post in the This Week's Roll Call thread every time I go to a live event for WWE or (my favorite) Ring of Honor. We do not have a Wrestling Thread, and never will, so I usually keep my opinion of the sport to a minimum, outside of the aforementioned thread, or if one of the wrestlers pass away. I enjoy the performance aspect and storytelling of it.  To me, its similar to watching a (very violent) play.

No I do not make fun of (or watch) Nascar. I can appreciate racing, and the couple of races I watched a few years back were pretty entertaining.  That could also have been due to the people I watched it with being big fans and really getting into it.

Anyways, sorry to derail… It really is sad about Paul Bearer, he was only 58.
