RIP as well. It's been said, but bares repeating, she may be the toughest woman to ever work in this business. Yeah, some women do deathmatches, but she was in her 80's taking powerbombs through tables from the top rope, and according to the Dudleys, got hot that they took it too easy on her.
That's freaking nails right there.

RIP, Fabulous Moolah. At least she got to live a good, long life. She could even take a bump in the last few years.

That's freaking nails right there. That was actually Mae who wanted the Dudleys to treat her "like one of the boys". Moolah did, however, take an RKO a few years back and sold it better and more convincingly than half the roster. But in any case, RIP Moolah. |

Regardless, nothing but respect for both of them. |

With how old Moolah is this isn't a time to be sad but to celebrate her life.

Well the Wrestlecrap jinx has done it again. Not only does Candice Michele almost die from the hands of Beth Phenoix, but Moolah really does kick the bucket. Thanks to you and your damn CLOCKTROLLA guys -- we've lost two of bright lights in a sky now dimmer.
Edit: Just a little humor, fellas. Mae looked sicker than Moolha (there 'good' friends (cough--****Pat Patterson****-cough) ), and Moolah dies.

I know you are saying that it's good that she didn't die young (and I agree with you there), but when you get down to it, she did exactly that.
She died young.
Young spirited I mean, I mean she was in her 80s, but the acted and lived her life as if she was always in her prime. She embodied youth. She didn't let age get the better of her, and for that I respect the f*** out of her.
RIP.

Moolah was truly a great no doubt.... I'd say most of today's fans missed her glory days, but everyone can still recognize what she has meant not only to female wrestling but to the WWE in general.
One of my earliest Moolah memories was from Hulk Hogan's Rock n Wrestling animated show. They did live action skits before or after commercial breaks and Moolah was always being mean to Wendi Richter. I remember her making her a batch of poison cookies one time!
Her work in recent years was mostly for comedy sake but she did a great job. Kicked Ivory's butt, took an RKO, showed off puppies with Mae....
One of the best moments was at WM17 when Bobby Heenan got stuck in the closet with Moolah and Mae.
RIP.

RIP Moolah
If anyone wants to see a nice overview of her career and interviews with her check out the documentary Lipstick and Dynamite. It's about women's wrestling in general but Moolah and Mae are featured.

at least she made it to a respectable age, and was still healthy enough to make some funny cameos (the one with Mae Young, Mean Gene and Heenan at Mania was priceless)
