RIP Butch Reed. Doom was one of my favorite NWA/WCW tag teams. You couldn’t convince me as a youngin that those two weren’t the baddest muthafukkers on the planet. Their matches with the Steiners were dope.
Four legit badass people in/out of the ring. Butch Reed along with Bobo Brazil never really get the credit they truly deserve.

Let's also appreciate the greatness of Slick while he's still with us.

R.I.P.

I didn't know he was in WWE at first until years later I rented WrestleMania III at Blockbuster back in the day. I didn't get to see much of his run with Ron Simmons as Doom b/c I didn't have cable back then as kid.

Much respect to him for being one of many blacks to really break into a very racist industry.

Just to think, this guy was supposed not originally be the first black IC champion in WWF back in '87 but they gave it to Honky Tonk Man instead *smh*

R.I.P. to one of the toughest men in wrestling; and half of one of my favorite tag teams of all time, Doom.
Not only was Mr. Reed a wrestling legend, but he was also a legend on the professional rodeo circuit. #BadAss
Rest easy, Hacksaw.
