R.I.P John Tenta...only you could be an awesome manshark and a retard who carried a giant Eric Cartman doll after being teamed with the likes of Tugboat.

I'll never forget you.

As I said in the other thread. I liked 'Quake. For a fat man he could work... Almost. :D

You think he'll be remembered more for his feud with Hogan or his squashing of Damien?

I actually met him once. He was an incredibly nice guy.

R.I.P., big guy.

Yeah, I talked to him a few times over WrestleCrap forums, he seemed nice. The way RD Reynolds talks about him, he's gotta be a stand up guy.

Was Earthquake a participant in the gimmick battle battle royal at WM17 which the Iron Sheik won?

They have a video of his short match with Adam Bomb at WMX on wwe.com. Dude threw a killer belly-to belly, no doubt stemming from his sumo career.

Unbelievable. John Tenta's passing is a great loss to the world of wrestling, and to anyone who had ever met him. I had the pleasure of speaking with John in person twice, and stayed in contact with him on his message board on the wrestlecrap site. Back in 90', and 91', John was one of the most hated heels in wrestling. Little did anyone know, John was really a great person. This is a pretty shocking death to me, seeing as John had posted on his boards saying he was feeling pretty good not too long before his passing.

I'm not sure what it's called, but I've heard it before somewhere.

Mothafuckin' Zakk Wylde, nigga.

Good vid. Tenta was a good man. What really stuck out to me, is that Jake fucking Roberts outlived Tenta.

Never even thought about that. Pretty damn surprising, that a guy like Jake, with all of his demons, could outlive 'Quake.

That cancer is a fuckin' bitch, ain't it. It don't care HOW much coke you've snorted.

That's why I drink lots of diet cola, smoke clove cigarettes, and watch too much TV. I DARE cancer to get me. :)
