After Albano retired, Altomare continued as a singles wrestler and later worked as a referee and mentor, serving as an early coach to Hulk Hogan. He was later responsible for merchandising in the WWF and founded a wrestling school called “The Factory,” where he trained several notable wrestlers. He passed away in 2003 due to heart failure.
