Don West has Died:(

I just found out the sad news. I saw him countless times during the great heyday of TNA including the birth of it in 2002...20 years ago this year :( :o

Don West RIP 1.jpg


I remember I saw the blowout commercials & ads seeing the very TNA Programs/Books that I showcased a while back, I saw'em and I'm like yep, there they are :) He was a great salesperson and its really bad when people don't talk about wrestling commentators as much as they should with exceptions of Bobby "The Brain" Heenan & Jim Ross but there is others than them and Don West was truly one of the most underrated :roll:

He was known for...



Here is this unbelievable moment with WCW's Mike Tenay :shock:



He was great at selling other stuff too including Baseball cards :batsmile:



Here is Don's recent thoughts about AEW :)

Aw, man, I loved Don West in TNA. His baseball card shows were kind of a running gag with us because he'd always freak out when he opened packs and pulled out cards like a 10th year Cal Ripken that wasn't worth much of anything but he'd react like he just pulled a 1952 Mickey Mantle, lol.

But he was underrated/underappreciated as an announcer. Sad he's gone.
