Wrestling world pays tribute to ‘Superstar’ Bill Dundee
“Superstar” Bill Dundee passed in the early hours of Sunday (September 6) at the age of 82, his family announced.
Dundee, who was born in Scotland and raised in Australia, was a legend in wrestling. His career will forever be associated with Jerry “The King” Lawler, who was at times a partner and other times a nemesis of Dundee for years.
Though no cause of death has been announced, TMZ noted that his son previously disclosed “Superstar” had been battling dementia.
Soon after news broke of Dundee’s passing, fellow wrestling stars paid tribute to the Memphis Wrestling Hall of Fame member.
William Regal, who was managed by Dundee early in his career, posted on X (Twitter): “I’m sorry to hear of the passing of Bill Dundee. A lad born in Scotland who moved to Australia then came to the US and became a big star in the wrestling. We worked together when I first came here and he helped make my act work. My deepest condolences to his family. Rest well.”
