Bruno Sammartino was a legend. He was the American Dream personified. From his childhood in Italy hiding from Nazis to selling out Madison Square Garden 188 times as the biggest star of professional wrestling, he was a hero in every stage of his life. pic.twitter.com/29KDwT3gcA

Any child born after August 17, 2010 has been alive for less time than Bruno Sammartino's first title reign lasted. The thought of that in today's short attention span world is mind-boggling.

RIP Bruno Sammartino. An icon. I saw Bruno wrestle Roddy Piper in a Steel Cage at Boston Garden. I got to work with him twice in ROH. I was so nervous when I pitched him an idea in ROH. There was nothing to be nervous about. He was tremendous and a gentleman. Thank you, Bruno
