He's most known as the longtime promoter of Central States Wrestling and as President of the NWA.

The CAC can confirm that club member and original owner of the NWA, Bob Geigel, has passed away today from advanced Alzheimer’s disease. He was 90 years of age.

The wrestling community owes a great deal to Bob, and we at the Cauliflower Alley Club send our deepest sympathies to his friends and loved ones in this time of mourning.

I can't remember who brought up his name a week ago on a podcast but my immediate thought was "Bob Geigel is still alive?"

Guess not anymore.
