It's a shame, of course it was accidental but in wrestling that can be fatal.

Damn, that's pretty gangster to kill someone in a fake fight...
It's amazing it doesn't happen more often, it made me think about the time Kidman did a shooting star press on Chavo and came down with his knee on Chavo's head and knocked him out cold. You can see him try to hook the leg but Chavo is stiffened up and complete unconscious.

Wrestlers don't age well at all, poor Superstar Billy Graham was having a hard time moving around in the 1980's I can't imagine how he's moving now. Hulk Hogan moves real slow these days.
As for deaths, poor Dino Bravo, that dude was shot 17 times (7 to the head, 10 to the torso) for being part of a cigarette smuggling ring.
Those fuckers are crazy
Wrestling is a stupid business to get into, years of getting slammed and having your body fucked up, addicted to painkillers and other drugs, abusing steroids so they can look like super heroes, brain damage from all the bumps like football players and boxers, always on the road and eating shitty, always drinking and partying to get away from the boredom and loneliness of the road... it seems like a recipe for disaster.
I was a huge wrestling fan as a kid. So big in fact that when I was 13 I wanted to drop out of school and go to a wrestling school. I wonder where I'd be now if I did that hahah. Certainly not posting here and enlightening people every day with my boxing knowledge ;D
Your body takes a pounding, your joints are knackered they say you have to no how to fall, you
can't get it right all the time.
It must be a hard life working with injury, all the time living out of a suit case I new a guy
who wrestled, he's knackered bad knees and hips took to many steds as well.
To be honest he's younger than me, and he is a wreck.
R.I.P to "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes
Guess I better update this, R.I.P to Rowdy Roddy Piper....old Hot Rod was one of the best.
Saw that Jimmy Super Fly Snuka charged with a murder that happened 30 years ago :-X
The Stunner was by far my favorite signature move. Such a dirty, sneaky move.
