Prayers and thoughts for Marty Jannetty one half of the legendary Rockers and why not share any memories of Marty such as meeting him favourite matches in the comments sending prayers to MARTY and his family friend s and us fans x

Marty Jannetty has undergone a foot amputation following years of serious problems and ongoing pain involving his foot and ankle.

It’s heartbreaking news for wrestling fans who grew up watching Marty as one half of The Rockers, but for those close to the situation, it’s also a reminder of just how much physical pain he’s reportedly been battling for a long time.

We’ve had the opportunity to work events with Marty over the years, and he was always incredibly kind to us, to the people around him, and especially to the fans. No matter what he was dealing with personally or physically, Marty always made time for people.

As difficult as this news is, we’re also hopeful that this can become a new beginning for him — one where he’s finally able to live with less pain and more comfort after so many hard years on that foot and ankle.

From all of us at Book Pro Wrestlers, we’re sending Marty Jannetty our prayers, support, and best wishes for healing and recovery.

R.I.P Ted Turner

BREAKING: Former WCW owner Ted Turner has sadly passed away at 87 years old 🙏🚨

A true icon… and the man who went head-to-head with WWE and Vince McMahon during the legendary Monday Night Wars.

CNN Chairman & CEO Mark Thompson shared the following on his passing:

“Ted was an intensely involved and committed leader—intrepid, fearless, and always willing to back a hunch and trust his own judgment. He was and always will be the presiding spirit of CNN… he is the giant on whose shoulders we stand.”

An absolute pioneer who changed the industry forever.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this difficult time.
