Shame he passed at just 55. RIP Mantaur

Wow, he was so young still too!
R.I.P. Mantaur, you were an interesting character in the New Generation era!

One of the worst gimmicks of the New Generation Era, but you can blame Vince McMahon for that. When he jobbed to Bret Hart and Bam Bam Bigelow though, he did put them over good. RIP.

Hey you're late I posted this in the theme thread earlier! I did watch the match with Bret a few days oddly enough.It was on Action Zone and it's a nice little match. Bret always worked well with the big guys

Way to young to die and while his gimmick was horrible, it is certainly one that stuck in the memory.

What a shame and no age at all.
Fun fact (from wiki so might not be reliable) but his debut match in Catch Wrestling Association in Germany was against Rambo, who was later his stable mate in the Truth Commission (Mantaur as Tank and Rambo as Sniper). Ok played it fast and loose with the word fun, but it interested me.
