We lost the pioneer of the high flyers – Jimmy ‘Superfly’ Snuka recently. Given his controversial past and the fact that he's still part of a lawsuit against WWE (represented by his wife), we were worried that he would only be remembered with a small graphic at the beginning of Raw.
Thankfully, WWE compiled a touching tribute remembering his career. Despite every controversy he’s courted outside the squared circle, one cannot dispute the fact that he was instrumental in changing the face of professional wrestling. RIP Superfly!
