i believe it was ten years ago today that he died. he was one of my favourite wrestlers.
i remember the first time i saw him was at wrestlemania 5, when he fought the warrior. i loved everything about him, and that match is one of the most entertaining i've seen. i was twelve years old when i saw this and couldn't stop laughing when he tried to swing his hips and had to stop midway because his back was hurt!
just thought i would post this and see if you guys have any fond memories of the "Ravishing" one

"Cut The Music!!
What I'd like right now is for all the fat, sweaty, outta shape losers to pipe down while I take my robe off, and show the ladies what a real man looks like
Hit The Music"He is of course the only man to appear on ECW, WCW and WWF programming in the same week, Ravishing Rick Rude. So sad that he has been dead for 10 years now The memory that stands out to me is from the Jake Roberts fued he had and this moment: I also loved his WCW theme music from his title run. I still do today

Damn man. Cannot believe he has been gone 10 years already! I loved his feud with the Ultimate Warrior throughout 1989 - 1990. Definitely great on the mic and in the ring.

he was excellent.I loved his feud with Jake the Snake.
it really shocked me when Bobby Heenan said on his shoot that Rick never wanted a manager and used to complain to Vince constantly about being paired with a manager.......I found the Brain CRUCIAL to his act and success

Ten years, aye...
Tremendous talent, and an awesome performer.
When he appeared in ECW at Barely Legal, that was pretty amazing too (he and Brian Lee fooled everyone, especially Shane Douglas)
