It’s hard to believe that a mere 3-4 years ago, the Fabulous Moolah was still taking powerbombs from the top rope through tables. She passed away last Friday at the age of 84.
Born Mary Lillian Ellison in 1923, she was dubbed the Fabulous Moolah after saying she wrestled “for the money … for the moolah.”
She was a longtime champion and the first woman inducted into the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Fame. Her autobiography, “The Fabulous Moolah: First Goddess of the Squared Circle,” was published in 2003.
