The great wrestlers of our time keep dropping like flies.  His son Travis Orndorff made the announcement on his Instagram feed.  Paul had been suffering from dementia.

"It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of my father, Paul Parlette Orndorff Jr. . He is better known as “Mr. #1derful” Paul Orndorff. Most of you will remember him for his physique. Many will remember his intensity. But if I could only get you to understand and see his heart. He will always be Pop, Paw Paw, and Daddy at home. And as much as many of you hated him as a wrestler, he absolutely loved you for it. He was an amazing father that showed me more love than I ever deserved. I love you, Daddy."

I remember the good old days of The WWF when you had believable and larger than life characters and one of them was Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff, he could play the heel and sometimes face too, he was that good.  :\'(
