    RIP, Fred Blassie

    Jim Ross announced on RAW tonight that Fred Blassie had passed away today.

    Blassie was a legend not only in the US but also in Japan where he was a top heel against Rikidozan.

    He lived only 10 to 15min from where I live, and since his wife and I had a mutual friend, I always thought I could meet him anytime I want to. Never happened.

    Rest in Peace, Freddie...

    Freddie used to say that he'd have a rematch with Riki, but in The Other Location.

    Olev ha'shalom.

    So long from the Sunshine State.

    Goodbye Freddie, you'll be missed.

    Indeed he'll be missed. He must've been the greatest promo man of the last 50 years. If Mohammed Ali says he used to model his promos after him, I doubt there were many better than him.

    Unhappy "Stairway To Heaven"

    Prayers and love goes out to the family, and my respects also goes out the spirit of a man who made being a heel manager an art form.

    Rest In Peace Freddie. We Love You

    a belated goodbye

    My heart fell when I heard of his passing. He was a great heel and a great manager.

    I saw the video on Smackdown, and I thought that they did a great job... I shed a tear. I'll won't be able to hear that song again without think of him.

    Goodbye, Mr. Blassie.

    Although we are sad at his leaving us, we should all drink a toast to him to celebrate his life.

    Greedy enough to be labeled a thief
    Angry enough for me to go and hurt a man
    Cruel enough for me to feel no grief...
