Man, tough one here for me growing up on the WWF in the 70's and 80's. Bruno was towards the end of his active wrestling career, but I still got to see a lot of great stuff, notably the turn on him by Zbyszko on TV. Great angle, really well done and got people almost in a lynch mob type mentality, it was so believed and so well done back then. Longest reigning WWF Champion to this day, and only then dropped it because he needed time off the road with his family. One of the most loved wrestlers ever. When he dropped the title to Ivan Koloff in 1971, they didn't even announce Koloff as the new champion for fear of a riot. Always in top condition and always gracious towards the fans. The Living Legend has passed away, may he rest in peace and condolences to his family.

Found out on Twitter. Me and my Dad were both super bummed out the entire day over it. They did a nice tribute on Raw and have a special on the Network now which I can't wait to see.
