The Wrestling World Reacts To The Passing Of Bruno Sammartino

April 18, 2018

Bruno is indirectly responsible for where I am today. Growing up in Pittsburgh, he was my father’s hero, and sparked my dad’s passion for the business that he passed on to me.

I was lucky enough to spend some time with Bruno, and the man exemplified class. #RIPBruno
