I always wondered about his arm. Later in his career, it was very noticeably smaller and I'd never heard why.

This is sad (Wikipedia):

On May 8, 2021, Orndorff's son Travis posted a video of him at a medical facility, where he was seen in a state of reported dementia.[56][57] He believed his father's dementia was a result of Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).[58]

Brutus Beefcake!

Doesn't surprise me. A friend of mine's met him at numerous cons and says that he was a total *** to everyone there every single time.

The only wrestlers I've ever met are DDP and George "the Animal" Steele (at Lexington Comic Con) and they were both really cool. :)
