'The Assassin' Jody Hamilton is one of the all-time great wrestling villains, whether that was as a solo act or as part of the Assassins tandem alongside Tom Renesto. Sadly, Jody passed away on 3 August at 82 years of age, as announced by his son Nick Patrick.

Away from his own Hall of Fame in-ring career, Hamilton had a spell working as a key part of Dusty Rhodes' creative team in WCW, while Jody also famously headed up the WCW Power Plant - helping to train big-name players like Goldberg and Diamond Dallas Page.
