Wasn't he the guy that saved three kids from a burning building or something?
I never saw him wrestle but still sad.
Well after looking on SA forums, I found this gem:
Ok this isnt sleazy, but its kinda cool. In 1995 my buddy worked at a Dominos pizza in Manasquan, NJ. A local indy fed was putting on a show at the local high school gym, and his Dominos Pizza got hired to sell pizza there. So my buddy says "dude, if you wanna sell pizza that night I can get you in free". So I jumped at the chance. The card was full of the usual "I never heard of them" indy types...PLUS Bam Bam F''n Bigelow!! Mark out city!!!!! So the show is going cool and the guys are a blast to talk too, and Bigelow is the coolest f**king person alive, mad props to him. Anyway, his opponent that night was some HUGE juiced up roid freak, cant remember his name. So this guy comes to the pizza stand and takes a coke and walks away. So I say, "excuse me, you have to pay for that" and he shoots me this look and says "You gonna make me?" and walks away. Ok, its 35 friggin cents, no big deal, but it pisses me off. Bigelow comes over and says "What just happened?" and I tell him. He smiles at me and says "Don;t worry".
In the match, Bigelow shoots on the guy and literally smacks the living crap out of him...HUGE stiff shots, big time, all the hard way. The crowd goes nuts, the other wrestlers are loving it.
At the end we are packing the pizza stuff up. Mr.Steroid monster himself, now limping and with a black eye and bruises all over sheepishly walks over and hands me 20 bucks and says "its for the coke, keep the change". He doesnt even make eye contact!!!!!!!!!!
From that day on, I am a mad Bigelow mark. The man can do no wrong in my eyes. What a class act.
Jesus, how a man like that not get some good karma chips and not outlive some of these assholes in this industry is beyond me. RIP Good sir.
