I woke up this morning to read that the legendary Ox Baker has passed away, aged 80.
Ox Baker is the reason I love professional wrestling. In the mid 1970s here in Australia he was a central part of our World Championship Wrestling promotion. He teamed with the likes of Brute Bernard and Butcher Brannigan and was just so damn scary to me as a little kid. He was the very definition of a heel.
Nearly 40 years later, I can still find a spot in my all time top ten for Ox.
He will be sorely missed.
I look forward to hearing some of the older members' memories.
RIP
