Pro wrestling legend Curtis Iaukea died on Saturday at age 73. "He died peacefully with family around him," his son Rocky told the Hawaiian Star Advertiser. "At his home in Papakolea... "He was originally crippled from wrestling in 1979. Over the last year things accelerated, but his health problems started a long time ago."

Powell's POV: Curtis is a Hawaii sports and wrestling legend, as he also played for the Oakland Raiders and in the CFL. Our condolences to the family. You can read more on the story at StarAdvertiser.com.
