Who else died?
Terry Funk, and Bray Wyatt.
They really do come in 3's, don't they? God damn it.
This one hits hard, too. I grew up watching Bob. He was a staple of my weekdays. Sesame Street taught me my ABC's, but The Price is Right taught me how to count. On school days, my mom would tape TPiR so we could watch together when I got home, a tradition we kept up all the way to high school. Rest in peace, Bob Barker.
A quick edit to tie this back to wrestling a bit: Bob was on Talk is Jericho back in 2017. It was a decent podcast.

This time it seems 4, just the last one is in a different sphere.
Terry Funk
Bray Wyatt
Bob Barker
and they just yesterday announced the passing of Arleen Sorkin, who was the original voice (and direct inspiration for the creation) of Harley Quinn from the Batman animated series :(
Shit. Another childhood staple.
Damn. I didn't see his Raw episode but I'll never forget this.
Knew what it'd be before even clicking lmao.
It's one of my favourite scenes ever.
