Aw that sucks. McMahon was underrated. I know he got some flack for his portrayal of Dr Doom but he had a solid television resume. Still remember him as the half demon Balthazar on Charmed. His ever changing loyalties and his on again, off again relationship with Alyssa Milano's Phoebe being a constant source of drama on the show. He of course got a lot of recognition for his portrayal of criminal plastic surgeon Dr Christian Troy on the cult FX drama Nip/Tuck. Usually enjoyed him in whatever I saw him him.

Man, this week has been brutal. We've also lost Kenneth Colley, best known as Admiral Piett in the original Star Wars trilogy.

Now we lost Ozzy

[SoggyNoodles2016]

Fuck, man.

Dad was a massive Sabbath head and it got me into metal. I knew he was bad off and was glad he got to retire with Back To The Beginning but still way too soon.

Rest in peace, Prince of Darkness.

R.I.P. Ozzy

[Executive Hamster]

So devastated by the loss of Ozzy. Without him and Iomi, there is no metal. This genre just wouldnt exist. I owe a lot to Ozzy.

[UltramanGoji]

The Prince of freakin' Darkness being gone was always that persistent inevitability in the back of my head but seeing it come to fruition...it hurts, man. Ozzy was the king of metal (whether he liked the term or not!) and on its Mount Rushmore. I'm extremely happy he was able to have one last big celebration with the original Sabbath members one last time before he passed. Gonna be going through his discography, both Sabbath and solo, the rest of this week in remembrance.

RIP Ozzy, you absolute legend.

[MC_Lovecraft]

My mom texted me at work with the news. Crazy. Some people, there's just this always-ness to them, like they'll never not be there, even when you know better. Ozzy was high on that list. The life he lived, you thought nothing would actually stop him in the end. A true pioneer, one of the greats. Godspeed, you crazy bastard.

[NSZ]

Been digesting the news since it broke. Really fucking wild to think that he just isn't here anymore. Even knowing how old he was, no matter how obvious the coming turning of the page was, it did feel like he'd never not be around, but I guess with the legacy he's made, both with Black Sabbath & solo, that'll still be true in a sense. Maybe that's what true immortality is.

But yeah, like UG said, I'm happy he got that big send-off concert under his belt. Go out with a bang.

Rest easy, Ozzy. You'll be missed, but never forgotten.

[Kiryu2012]

Was never a big fan of Black Sabbath, but I can't deny the legacy Ozzy Osbourne made for himself. I'm really glad he got that one last concert before his passing. RIP to a legend.

Hulk Hogan has passed

^Now he can have rematches with Andre in heaven.

[Gigantis]

On one hand, there's no denying it. Hogan was super influential as a wrestler, was a major force in putting WWE's name on the map, and was an all around super star that many could recognize even if they never watched a single wrestling match.

On the other, there's also no denying Terry Bollela was also a notoriously awful person who was an incredibly racist narc that had no qualms with screwing over those deserving just to get what he wanted in addition to a ton of other gross activities. His legacy in the ring will be remembered fondly I'm sure, but the man himself almost certainly will not.

[Jomei]

RIP HULKSTER

Crazy to think Ric Flair outlived him.

[o.supreme]

^Now he can have rematches with Andre in heaven.

That is just crazy, but unfortunately not unexpected. I still remember seeing Wrestlemania III live via close circuit television (look it up kids) . I haven't watched wrestling since 2002, but a close buddy of mine has been watching a ton of the older stuff on streaming. Good memories.

Not only Ric Flair, I'm surprised Vince McMahon is still alive.

Oh no!

Anyways, RIP Ozzy
