Another wrestler passed away

Huge shock, this.

Apparently contracted COVID-19 and suffered from major health complications as a result.

WWE's handling of the pandemic was flawed, to put it politely so it'll be interesting to see if there's any fallout from this.
 
In my early thirties, pre-children, I dragged my wife to a WWE Raw taping purely as seeing the Undertaker had always been an ambition of mine. I stopped watching wrestling decades ago.

He came out with Kane and gave Bray a chokeslam. Awesome. The MEN was electric. My wife couldn’t understand why grown men around her were punching the air and high fiving. She did get quite into it though. I just played it cool, of course.

It was the same show that Wayne Rooney slapped William Regal in the front row.

No age to be snuffing it like. He always seemed like a good performer and character. RIP.

I went to Summerslam 92 at Wembley when I was a lad. What an experience it was. The noise was incredible and can understand why the yanks go overboard at these events :ROFLMAO: . When Legion of Doom came out on their motorbikes, Ive never heard noise like it! :ROFLMAO:

These wrestlers put their bodies through some punishment.
 
This one has effected me a lot, the man was a creative genuis and as somebody who grew up idolising the aura and mystique of The Undertaker and the character, Bray's The Fiend character has gotten the closest to that feeling.
It sucks that we'll never see the true extent of his creative genius.
After a few years away from watching Wrestling The Shield Vs The Wyatt Family pulled me back in.
His storylines with John Cena when he'd have entire audiences captivated.
When he returned late last year, I'll never forget his promo when he claimed how he thought he was alone until his fans continued to support and encourage him through difficult times and it was the first time Bray wasn't a character if was Wyndham.

Selfishly I always wanted him to go to AEW where he'd thrive and be able to let his creativity run wild.
36 is far to young, his kids are only tiny, this one absolutely sucks, but at least he's back with Brodie now ❤️
