RIP Skandar Akbar

[Chuck]

Just received word that Texas wrestling legend General Skandar Akbar died. Anyone who knows anything about the territorial days of wrestling knows that Akbar was truly one of the best managers ever leading Devastation Incorporated and countless others to gold.

 

Akbar also had his own professional wrestling school TPWA which produced Texas talents such as "The Essence of Excellence" Robert Evans, "Solid Gold" Gregory Symonds, The Monster Bash and Spoiler 2000.

 

Had the privelage of being the same locker room with Akbar on multiple occasions... was truly a good man. Godspeed Akbar.

 

RIP

I remember watching Skandar when he was in Global. He must have been very good because I remember hating him as a kid and yes I was one of those kids that really hated every bad guy. RIP Skandar.
