Race was an 8 time NWA Heavyweight Wrestling Champion and he held many other titles in his 40 year career.
I watched Race wrestle from about 1976 until he retired from active wrestling and never stopped being amazed at his talent and ability. Race made a great heel, and was often involved in some of the greatest matches ever with opponents such as Dory Funk, Jr. and Ric Flair.
Harley Race died on Aug. 1st, 2019 from lung cancer at the age of 76. He was and always will be a true legend in the sport, and it is safe to say there will NEVER be another one of his kind.
