"I'm not booked" Dennis Stamp passed away

[The Rainmaker]

Dennis Stamp, who worked several territories and actually wrestled Bret Hart in Hart's first ever match and was immortalized with the words "I'm not booked" in the Barry Blaustein documentary Beyond the Mat in 1999, passed away this afternoon at 12:19 PM. I believe Stamp was 69 years old.


Stamp had been battling cancer again since it re-emerged in September 2016. Things had taken a turn of the worse in recent weeks as the cancer had spread to his bone marrow. In the last week Stamp had returned home to spend what little time he had left with his family in Texas.

Holy shyt. They were just talking about him on the STW podcast over a week ago.

They mentioned he was in bad health on the last podcast, but not this bad.

EDIT - Damn. There are a lot of Dennis Stamp interviews on YouTube. I'm kind of shocked.
