“I am sad to report that Bill Dundee passed away this morning. He was a brilliant wrestling mind and performer for decades. My thoughts and prayers are with his entire family,” Thompson wrote.
Moments ago, World Wrestling Entertainment’s official X (formerly Twitter) handle acknowledged the legendary pro wrestler’s passing and posted a heartfelt message.
“WWE is saddened to learn that Memphis wrestling legend Bill Dundee has passed away. WWE extends its condolences to Dundee’s family, friends, and fans,” read the tweet.
You can check out the tweet below:
Although he wrestled for multiple promotions before his eventual retirement, Dundee made a name for himself at Memphis Wrestling. He often teamed up and even feuded with WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler. The duo even won the AWA World Tag Team Championship.
Dundee’s wrestling career that spanned nearly six decades came to an end in 2019. He officially bid adieu to professional wrestling at 76 years old at a Pay Per View named Bobby Eaton: A Night Of Appreciation that took place in Knoxville, Tennessee. He competed in an eight-man tag team match and ended up on the losing side.
Bill Dundee hailed a WWE Hall of Famer for his friendly behavior
Dundee spoke with Dr. Chris Featherstone on an episode of UnSKripted several years ago. When asked about Sting, Dundee stated that he liked The Stinger.
The veteran noted that he got along very well with Sting and reiterated the latter wasn’t hard to get along with. He added that the former NWA World Heavyweight Champion did whatever was asked of him.
“Borden [Sting] was alright, he’s a good guy. I liked him, I got along good with him. No. He wasn’t hard to get along with. He’d do business, do whatever you wanted him to. And he could work,” Dundee said.
Everyone at Sportskeeda send our condolences to the friends and family of Bill Dundee.
