Good morning 1WrestlingVideo!

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and warm wishes for Mr. Eddie Marlin's Family.

I know they do sincerely appreciate the love and support.

Mr. Bill Apter is right when he said Eddie Marlin gave his life to wrestling, wrestling fans worldwide but especially in Memphis, TN. Classic wrestling. Always good, every Saturday in those WMVC TV Channel 5 Studios there in Memphis for years. Even in poor health and old age Eddie was always around for the good of the fans and the sport he so loved devoting his time and talents to a bygone era in the sport of Kings.

God rest your soul Eddie Marlin. Thank you.

Sad to hear of the passing of another legend. Condolences to the family and friends. I often hear stories told by Jerry Lawler and Jim Cornett about Mr Marlin and always seemed like he was a class guy to be around. Thank you, Mr Apter for your timely update and as always professionalism.

‪Eddie Marlin was so kind to me when I worked In Jackson, TN. Wrestling promoter for Jerry Jarrett in Memphis. So sorry he has passed away. I’m a little late hearing this news. ‬

My dad worked for Nick Gulas as a "jobber" in the 1960s-70s. As he got older, he couldn't physically perform in the ring after about 1975. But, he sided with Jerry Jarrett in 1978 when Jerry split off from Nick. He always thought the world of Eddie Marlin, who continued to pay him for coming to Saturday morning TV and Monday nights at the Mid-South Coliseum, despite the fact that he couldn't really wrestle anymore.

Eddie Marlin RIP he should be in the wwe hall of fame

[JamesSmith-swnk]

89 is a great run, when somebody who is that old passes away, you'll celebrate their life, not mourn it. He completed the circle of life. RIP.

[tomkinney]

RIP Eddie. Prayers for his family and friends.

I remember him well. 89 years old is pretty impressive after years of abusing his body in the ring. Always rough to lose a friend Bill no matter how old.

[paulsilas]

I remember Eddie Marlin very well, in the Memphis territory.

God rest his soul my thoughts out to the Jarrett/Marlin family we’ve lost a lot of greats this year Jacque rougeau sr to name one, Eddie Marlin really was a major player in Memphis Memphis wrestling is in my heart I’ll never forget jimmy valiant breaking the bottle over Jerry lawlers head beginning that feud

[jamesashmore]

RIP Eddie. I will never forget when he fired Eddie and Doug Gilbert on Saturday morning wrestling. Eddie Gilbert jumped him they went to the parking lot Lawler made the save the Gilbert brothers jump in the car and run Lawler over. One of the best angles ever

[Rdlee]

[monsterzero]

Prayers for him and his family! I am so sorry for their loss!
