George "the Animal " Steele. RIP
 

Sad to hear that one of the great wrestlers ever to grace the squared circle has passed away. It's not just anyone who could throw the flying hammer on you. Happy memories of him " returning to ring again after a long absence, being led to the ring by his manager, the manager of champions, Captain Lou Albano, from the motor city, Dee troit Michigan, at 288 pounds...George, the ANIMAL Steele

2:08 mark is classic

He was really good at what he did. I got into the WWE for a while way back when and George would scare the poopies out of me. It must have been the hairy back. RIP George you were very entertaining. :tro:

Motor City Madman who also happened to be a college professor .
