Gypsy Joe dead at age 82

wrestlingringGilberto Melendez, who wrestled most notably as Gypsy Joe, died on Thursday at age 82. Melendez’s son reported the news on Reddit and noted that his father had been hospitalized since June 4 and had struggled with health issues since 2012.

Powell’s POV: Melendez worked his final match on January 7, 2011. Yes, you read that right, just five years ago, meaning he wrestled for over 60 years. My condolences to his family, friends, and fans.
