Remembering Nick Bockwinkel

The David Difference • November 14, 2024

Nick Bockwinkel 1934-2015

Today marks 9 years since we lost Nick Bockwinkel, a legend whose influence and impact on wrestling will always be felt. As a lifetime member and former president of the Cauliflower Alley Club, Nick held a special place in our hearts.

A former AWA World Heavyweight Champion and WWE Hall of Famer, Nick brought intelligence, charisma, and technical skill to the ring. His eloquence on the microphone and mastery inside the ropes set a standard for generations of wrestlers to follow.

The Cauliflower Alley Club honors Nick today, remembering his leadership, kindness, and commitment to our community. His spirit and legacy live on with the CAC family and fans everywhere.


Nick Bockwinkel, your memory endures. Rest in Peace, Champion.
