I am quite amazed when any of the old ECW wrestlers gets to a ripe old age (Mick Foley comes to mind). The stunts they did were way over-the-top, even by pro 'rassling standards. The abuse those guys took is just scary, and if any of them don't take serious painkillers after age 40, I'm surprised.
RIP Axl.
