Mick Foley via Facebook: „IT’S TIME…TO PUT VADER IN THE HALL OF FAME“

Wie WrestlingCorner.de bereits berichtete, hat der frühere WCW World Heavyweight Champion Leon „Vader“ White vor wenigen Stunden via Twitter bekannt gegeben, dass er laut seinen behandelnden Ärzten aufgrund seiner Herzinsuffizienz nur noch zwei Jahre zu leben hat. RAW General Manager Mick Foley hat sich nun in einem Facebook-Beitrag über die Vader-News geäußert und verlauten lassen, dass es an der Zeit ist, Vader endlich in die WWE Hall Of Fame einzuführen. Nachfolgend der Social Media-Beitrag von Mick Foley:

IT’S TIME…TO PUT VADER IN THE HALL OF FAME

I have been talking with Leon White the past few weeks, so I knew the news might be coming. But seeing it in print this morning was a shock nonetheless. Leon is dying. He has been told by doctors that he may have less than two years left to live. His legacy is so important to him, and he has told me that being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame would mean so much on both a personal and professional level. On a global level, Vader was one of the greatest attractions the pro wrestling business has ever seen. I have talked with people at the highest levels at WWE, and hope and pray that Leon’s name will be included in the class of 2017 Hall of Fame inductees.
