    Another Wrestler Dies --- Brian "Crush" Adams

    I just heard this on the news.
    He was found dead in his bed this morning.
    His wife called 911 but it was too late.

    They still don't know what killed him
    He was 44

            From Wikipedia - On August 13, 2007, Adams was found by his wife unconscious in bed and not breathing. His wife then dialed 911. When paramedics arrived they could not revive Adams. He was pronounced dead of an undetermined cause. Police note "there were no visible signs of injury."An autopsy is scheduled for August 14, 2007.

                    Bryan was one of the greats. WCW used to place him against Kevin Nash in the 90's Those were some great matches.

                    44 is way too young to go.


                    Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                        I believe so. He also did a stint as the demon, where he wore KISS makeup.

                          I'm not familair with this gentleman. Obviously, I'm not a big wrestling fan. How big of a name was he in the industry? I had heard of Benoit, but my ignorance makes me unaware.

                            When he was with WCW he was a mid card wrestler. He did a few matches with Kevin Nash, and they tried to give him a push as the KISS wrestler(Deamon), but it never took off.

                              Nope.

                              Glen "Kane" Jacobs was the Fake Diesel.

                              He was a "mid-card" wrestler. A big guy with moderate wrestling skills and little ability on the microphone. The kind they try a couple of times to push into main event category, but it never quite worked.
