RIP Nikolai Volkoff

I was a fan of Nikolai and the Sheik. Volkoff was an absolute beast especially early in his career. He seemed like such a nice man in interviews(outside wrestling) too. I'll miss him. RIP.

Trump calls Putin, sends condolences to the Russian people and will attend Volkoff’s funeral.

Collusion. How dare you humanize the face of Soviet era oppression (unless you're Bernie Sanders, who had a soviet flag in his office and honeymooned with his pig in the USSR)? LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, BROTHER...WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WHEN THE GREATEST COUNTRY ON EARTH COMES DOWN ON YOU?!?

I would dearly love to see Hulk Hogan do a leg drop on Nikolai's corpse at the funeral. And then put his hand up to his ear in an exaggerated manner, to elicit cheers from the crowd.

Seriously though, that era of heels was the friggin' best. Volkov; The Iron Sheikh; Bobby Heenan; Jake the Snake; Brutus Beefcake; The Anvil; George Steele: hell, even Andre the Giant took a turn as a bad guy.

So long Nikolai Volkov. We hardly knew ye.
