RIP JAMES NEIDHART 1955-2018

"The Anvil" has died.

One of the greatest stars of professional wrestling has died. Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart has passed away at the age of 63. The cause of death is only being listed as a "medical emergency" for now.

Neidhart was trained by Stu Hart in Calgary, Canada and became a driving force in the sport in the 80's and 90's. I first caught him at Stampede Wrestling in Canada. Soon he moved on to the WWF and became a huge name in the business.

He became a member of "The Hart Foundation" managed by Jimmy Hart and also featuring Brett Hart. Neidhart also appeared in ECW, WCW,and TNA. He was indeed a class act and a gentleman to boot.

They simply don't make men like Jim anymore.
