One of the greatest NCAA wrestlers ever to cross over to pro wrestling. The annual NCAA best wrestler award is named after him as well as a high school wrestling tournament which I believe Randy Orton was a winner of. RIP.

It always saddens me when you find out someone who was tough as nails or a beast among men was battling dementia.
The man was a legit tough guy & a man's man. But he was very humble & quiet about it. The stories about his feats of strength are amazing.
Rest peacefully, Mr. Hodge.

It is not necessary to believe in God to be a good person. In a way, the traditional notion of God is outdated. One can be spiritual but not religious. Some of the best people in history did not believe in God, while some of the worst deeds were done in his name.

While he didn’t get into bar fights and bite people’s noses off(to my knowledge) Hodge was a badass in the vein of Haku. He was Jim Ross’ hero being Hodge was from Oklahoma. Well respected amongst the amateur and pro wrestling community.

RIP Danny Hodge
