5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (March 22)
1. Age Ain't Nothing But A Number

No, that's not the name of Jerry Lawler's autobiography, but an impossibly real truth in the ageless form of 'Bullet' Bob Armstrong.
'Bullet' Bob Armstrong wrestled his last match over the weekend at the age of 79 (seventy-nine). He was born in the same year World War II started. Reading through his history yields the account of a proper man's man. You'll never feel even remote sympathy for a WWE babyface after reading it.
So Kofi Kingston ran through five guys on SmackDown in some very on-the-nose booking. Big whoop. Bob Armstrong, as a young man, broke his face. Not WWE-speak "broken face", i.e. a damaged orbital. He broke his actual face, all of it, when a bench he was working out on collapsed, and the weight he was lifting crashed down on him. This freak accident took his nose clean off.
Requiring £38,000 of corrective plastic surgery, instead of recuperating, the verbal maestro Armstrong simply donned a mask to power through, and repackaged himself as the Bullet. Even into his 60s, still wrestling after four very successful decades for some reason, he was advised after knee surgery to only wrestle again after four months. He returned in weeks.
A raised glass to you, Bob, and you are forgiven for siring Road Dogg.
