RIP Pat Patterson & Frank Carney. Two significant names to go this week that were a big part of "growing up" in life.
It was nice to see Pat and even Mr. Gerald Briscoe appear in last summer's WWE reunion (aired Monday, July 22, 2019 on USA) and I think it was fitting to see the first IC Champ become the oldest 24/7. I think he would've been the first legendary Hall of Famer and legit champ to hold that title before losing it to Briscoe half an hour later. While a legend in his own right, he was a big part in the Attitude Era.
Pizza Hut would've never be the same regardless of whether Mr. Carney had stuck around. Frank is right; it has gone downhill. Like Dominoes, it has improved over the years. In my opinion, and also like Dominoes, there are so many better options than Pizza Hut. There was nothing he or anyone can do about that. It's just business
