“Late last night, I lost my friend, my brother, and tag team partner of over 50 years with the passing of Bob ‘Butch’ Miller. From the early-1970s when we were young mates wresting for 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 bloody redneck he was! But he was also an all-round good guy and a great friend… If you were to read the story of my life it would say I am only child, but it would be wrong. I had a brother and his name was Bob Miller. I love you, Bob. Until I see you again, WOOOOAH YEAAAHHHH!” he wrote.
