There may be some more unhealthy lifestyles than pro wrestling, but there aren't many.

If you can make it to the age of 69 when your career was a pro wrestler, you did alright.

From 24wrestling.com. Which deals with a lot of backstage stuff of wrestling.

quote:

While there aren’t a lot of specific details to report at this time, we can confirm that there are reports out that claim Rhodes suffered a fall at his house earlier today and his kidneys were shutting down as he started to get dehydrated.

We should have more information on this unfortunate story later today. Stay tuned.

Best TV announcer ever. Best wardrobe too. I loved that guy. He did some of his best work on Dialing for Dollars.

Dusty Rhodes was heavily involved in bringing the direct national competition between NWA (WCW) and WWF.
He pushed to have a rival Main Event type show to go against the Pay-per view programs of the WWF and pushed the quality of free televised wrestling.

He was funny on a microphone but some of his biggest contributions were behind the scenes. Seemed like a cool guy.
