Pre-Show Stalwart
Jorge "Giant" Gonzalez, a former member of the Aregentina Olympic basketball team in the 1988 Olympics, known to wrestling fans from his runs in both WWE and WCW from 1990-93, passed away today in a San Martin, Arentina hospital today.

Gonzalez had a run in WCW as EL Gigante, along with a run in WWE as Giant Gonzalez (including an early loss on The Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak run) ,and stood a legitimate 7'6'' and weighing around the 400 pound mark.

Gonzalez was 44 years of age.

I don't know what to say this is a really sad day. RIP :( .

what are your thoughts on this?
 
Wow. I'm speechless about this. I remembered him in WCW when he debuted as El Gigante. Remembering the days of the "Dudes with Attitudes", seeing him as a tag team with Junkyard Dog and Paul Orndorff, and of course the Battle of the Giants with Sid Vicious and the One Man Gang. Truly a sad time.
 
never good to hear about a performer passing away whether they are from the past or present. may he r.i.p. and may we all enjoy the memories he left us with
 
Well, it's another life gone, I guess he'll be remembered most for his feud with Undertaker...

R.I.P. BIG GUY!!
