    WWE Legend Rocky Johnson has passed away at the age of 75. It was announced by the Cauliflower Alley Club today that he died Wednesday. He was a WWE superstar and father to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. He made his debut in the National Wrestling Alliance in 1964 and had a brief run with the World Wrestling Federation in 1969.

    Horrible news to pass along. We just learned that Rocky Johnson passed away today at the age of 75.
