    WWE star George 'The Animal ' Steele dead at 79

    Published February 17, 2017

    FoxNews.com

    Professional wrestler George "The Animal" Steele died at age 79, the WWE said in a statement.

    Steele, whose real name is William James Myers was one of the WWE's most wild and outrageous stars.

    Known for his green tongue and hairy chest, "The Animal" received a master's degree from Central Michigan University and was a high school teacher and wrestling coach in Michigan.

    The WWE Hall of Famer continued to make wrestling appearances through the 2000s.

    He is survived by his wife Pat, their two sons Dennis and Randy and daughter, Felicia.

                  That era is passing fast. It recently started with the passing of Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka.

                      I have no idea how Superstar Billy Graham (wrestler) is still alive. He's seemed close to death for decades

                          Aw man, that's not good news. Yet another icon from our teenage years gone. Chet Donnelly from Weird Science.

                          RIP Bill Paxton....... great actor.
