Nikolai entertained while inciting anger in fans all across the @WWE Universe as an in-ring competitor, but backstage he was a gentle and thoughtful family man. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time. https://t.co/ItHtCpA1KU

I shared a room with Nicolai twice. He brought his hot plate and long gown (shirt?) to sleep in. He was in the class of the nicest, funniest old timers I watched as a kid and got to know in the business. #RIPNikolaiVolkoff
