There has been a GoFund Me launched for Frankie Caine, who wrestled as The Great Mephisto, to get a dependable vehicle. Mississippi Wrestling Memories detailed the needs by posting on Facebook "Ok Mississippi wrestling fans I am asking for a favor. The Great Mephisto Frankie Cain and his lovely wife Chris are in a bit of a situation and could use any help you may be able to give. Frankie is not on Facebook but Chris is and it took a bit of arm twisting to get her to let me share this. She and Frankie are reluctant and a bit embarrassed to ask for help but hell, I'm not! Frankie, a true Legend in wrestling and without a doubt the greatest mind in my opinion for the wrestling business, came in for us as our Booker in Ms. with our ICW promotion, Chris was his "Valet" and we spent over three years together running up and down the highways. They are like family to me, two of the finest people I have ever known! Thank you!" To view the GoFundMe page, click here.

Oklafan extends condolences to J. D. Rebel on the passing of the brother Chris.
