Wrestling fans in mourning, died Bushwhacker Butch

He had become famous for creating the Bushwhackers together with Bushwhacker Luke

Sad news for wrestling fans. At the age of 78, Bushwhacker Butch, a former New Zealand wrestler, has died. Born in 1944, he became famous for creating the Bushwhackers along with Bushwhacker Luke.

Bob Miller, that was his real name, was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015. “I lost my friend, brother and teammate of over 50 years with the passing of Bob ‘Butch’ Miller. From the early 1970s, when we were young teammates with John da Silva in New Zealand, my first impression of Bob “The Chest” Miller (as he was called in those days) was that he was a first-class redneck, and what a fucking redneck he was! But he was also a good guy and a great friend. If you read my life story, you think I was an only child, but that’s wrong. I had one brother in life, and his name was Bob Miller,” the words of Luke Williams, his lifelong partner in the ring.
