Luke Williams, aka Bushwhacker Luke, announced today that Bob Miller, better known as Bushwhacker Butch, his longtime partner in The Sheepherders and The Bushwhackers, passed away. He was 78 years old.
Miller’s passing happened after he had traveled from New Zealand to the United States and became ill. He had a medical episode shortly after arriving in Los Angeles, CA for WrestleCon 2023, which resulted in him being rushed to the hospital.
Miller worked for several promotions, including the NWA and WWE. As a tag team with Luke, they held the NWA Florida Tag Team Championships, NWA Mid-Atlantic Tag Team Championships, NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Championships, and UWF World Tag Team Championships.
The two men were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015.
We send our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Bob “Butch” Miller.
