Dynamite Kid Suffers Stroke

[The Brain]

The Dynamite Kid has had his share of health problems over the years. According to wwe.com he suffered a stroke yesterday and this is not the first one over the past couple weeks. It was 25 years ago today that Dynamite wrestled his last match in the WWF. He certainly wasn't the nicest guy in the world but he was a great athlete that was ahead of his time. Here's hoping Dynamite is able to recover.

Dynamite Kid was so far ahead of his time it's ridiculous. You could take his style from the 80's, insert it into todays wrestling, and it would not look out of place in the least.

He wasn't a great human being, and you have to wonder how well his health would be today if he hadn't gone so far overboard with the steroids and drugs back in the 80's (and how much that would have helped his overall disposition as a man), but you still have to feel for him with all he's gone through these last couple of decades.

Hopefully he's able to recover. I wish him the best.

Hopefully Tom can recover from this. He's had a lot of problems with his health over the years and it's a shame to see. He really was phenomenal in the ring and a massive influence on so many of the wrestlers you see today

Great wrestler.
Difficult human being.
That being said I feel for him and his family. Hopefully he recovers well and quick.

Ah, that sucks. I hope he sees an improvement in health.
