Bjorn,
He was crowned King Tusk. KING TUSK!!! No way would he ever be reduced to performing in the ring again. He was only in the various spec's only or attending personal appearance requests. He was "only for looking at," which he deserved. He was one of the most magnificent animals I have ever laid eyes on. I pity anyone who never saw and felt his presence live.
