I doubt it.  A friend of mine is a huge fan and according to him, 2003 would have been the year that Pac could "come back" from the dead, legally.

I haven't seen anything on him.  But here is a list of Famous Wrestlers That Have Died Since 1985 Before the Age of 65\n\nhttp://prowrestling.about.com/od/whatsrealwhatsfake/a/wrestlersdeaths.htm

April 19th, 2002\n\n\nHOUSTON (AP) -- Wahoo McDaniel, the former pro football player who became one of pro wrestling's most flamboyant figures, has died of complications from renal failure and diabetes. He was 63. \n\nMcDaniel, who lost both of his kidneys about 4 1/2 years ago, died Thursday night at Cy-Fair Medical Clinic in Houston, his oldest daughter said. He'd been in failing health in recent years, often undergoing kidney dialysis. McDaniel was on a waiting list to receive a kidney transplant. \n\nHe was born in Bernice, La., on June 19, 1938, and was a schoolboy football star at Midland (Texas) High School in the 1950s. \n\nMcDaniel moved on to the University of Oklahoma, where he lettered at linebacker from 1957-59. He holds the school record for the longest punt with a 91-yarder against Iowa State in 1958. \n\n"He was a wild, crazy Indian," daughter Nicky Rowe said Friday. "He was bigger than life. He was just amazing." \n\nThe 5-foot-11, 280-pound McDaniel was selected by Los Angeles in the second round of the American Football League draft in 1960. He bounced around the AFL for much of his eight-year career, spending time with the Houston Oilers, Denver Broncos, New York Jets and, finally, the Miami Dolphins. \n\nBy the end of his football career, McDaniel had already established himself as a big name in minor-league wrestling circuits around the country. But as a member of the Jets, McDaniel began to headline wrestling events at Madison Square Garden with the help of the arena's owner, Sonny Werblin. Werblin also was involved in the ownership of the Jets. \n\nMcDaniel capitalized on the stardom from his gridiron days to make a smooth transition into full-time wrestling. He became one of the country's most popular and beloved wrestlers during the '60s, '70s and '80s. \n\n"He was one of the first to make transition from football to wrestling," said Bob Ryder, who operates the wrestling Web site, 1wrestling.com. "When he found out he was making more money as a wrestler than a football player, he gave up football. He was such a big star." \n\nOver the course of his 30-year wrestling career, McDaniel had memorable battles with wrestling stars such as "Nature Boy" Ric Flair, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and Sgt. Slaughter. He won several titles before retiring in 1989. \n\n"I wrestled all the top wrestlers in the world, and I traveled a lot," McDaniel said once. "I got to see a lot of places that I probably wouldn't have gotten to see." \n\nHe was also fiercely proud of his Chickasaw Indian heritage and always entered the ring with his trademark elaborate feather headdress. \n\nShortly after retiring, health problems limited McDaniel to one of his newfound passions -- golf. He lived in Charlotte, N.C., until recently, but moved to Houston to live with his daughter and son-in-law as his health began to deteriorate. \n\n"He also became a mentor to a lot of other wrestlers," Rowe said. "He was so famous, I just didn't realize it until now. We've got so many calls from people." \n\nRowe said the family plans to cremate McDaniel's body and scatter the ashes over a lake near Del Rio, which was once the favorite fishing spot for her father and grandfather. They also plan to hold a memorial service for McDaniel in Midland next week. \n\nHe is survived by two daughters and a son.

I am wondering the same.  He has been doing not so good though.  he's still winning kind of, but not like the TKO man he used to be...

I don't think he will be back in the WWE, unless he had the right offer for him and his family.  He and his wife Wanda, had a son born on May 10, 2006. He married his wife on April 10, 2005. He's an animal rights advocate, an ASPCA spokesperson, and owns and operate the Extreme Muay Thai training facility, plus he's on Spike TV hosting Bullrun as well. He also races with his cars too. He  was negotiating with TNA, but I don't know if he still is or not. It looks like his plate is pretty full right now, with all the interests he has competing for his time, (wife and child), his TV show, his training facility and car racing. I don't know where he would find the time to train, travel and compete as a pro wrestler right now.

There has been a few rumours (mainly driven by the web) about this, but no official announcements.\n\nIt is clear that he is currently going through a very hard time, having split with his wife (again) and his friend Proof being shot and killed recently, and if reports are to be believed he has pretty much locked himself away and is very depressed.\n\nHowever, in many ways that is to be expected given recent events, and as there has been no official announcement of a retirement I would expect him to be "back in business" when he is good and ready to do so.

It would be awesome.I want to see him body slam the 500 pound Big Show.After 20 years,he will finally face another giant.I hope that will happen.

Of heavyweights, I would have to say Rocky Marciano, the only heavyweight champion to retire undefeated. It is true that Joe Louis held the title for twelve years, but he rarely defended his title against anyone who had a chance to beat him. Even he referred to most of his title defenses as the 'Bum of the Month Club'.

Actually, both of u disappeared from the scene. He isnt backed by HBO anymore, and thats why u havnt see him ringside. \n\nWith his last performance, who cares where he is? He lost the little respect i had for him by making a conscious effort not 2fight, and just survive his 3rd fight with Antonio Tarver.

No. Tyson hasn't had the fire in a long time. Fame will do that to a man - being surrounded by corruption and becoming somewhat corrupted himself. Of course, age is taking its toll as well. Tyson no longer has the agility nor the quickness that he used to win so many matches in his prime.\n\nIt should also be noted that Tyson usually didn't do well against guys who were much taller than him, so the current top heavyweights could pose a real problem for him.\n\nI'm sorry, but we'll have to remember Tyson in his prime and stop thinking of him making another comeback.

I found this guy (Pete Spratt), who won the Dallas Golden Gloves championship in 1995, but the exact division isn't specified. Why are you interested? Is it really you?

Unfortunately, it doesn't come down to whether Mayweather Sr. will train Oscar or not. From what I heard, De la Hoya was injured in the fight with Ricardo Mayorga (a torn muscle in his left forearm and a slight tear of the rotator cuff) and probably won't be fighting this year at all. Whether or not he's going to go ahead and retire or wait for a final fight should be announced soon.

Your thinking about Virgil Hill\n\nhttp://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=000479\n\nBut he won the WBA Light Heavyweight Title in 1987. He won the IBC Cruiserweight Title in 1998 and the WBA Cruiserweight Title in 2000.\n\nMarvin Camel was the 1st when he won a 15 round decision over Mate Parlov on March 31, 1980. He won the Vacant WBC Cruiserweight Title.\n\nhttp://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=854\n\nPS- I'm an editor on that site.
