We should invite Sami here… I think him and Riverman would hit it off.

Another dead before 60. Pure insanity

Of all the under 60 wrestling deaths, this has to be one of the least surprising.

For sure. Still crazy how many there are. The percentages of the number on that profession not making it to 60 have to be off the charts. Like crab fisherman levels

There’s no way I can find it, but someone compared a wrestlemania from the mid 90s to the superbowl the same year and I think the WM had like 7 dead compared to 0-1.

gotta be 1993 bunch of guys there didn’t make the age of 50. Nowadays that age is the biggest star in a company.

Junior Seau in that super bowl I guess? (n/m that was a different year but same idea)

Was bored so I did the work myself

Wrestlemania IX had 29 performers, including managers. 9 died (Sherri, Luna, Doink, Crush, Mr Perfect,Bearer, Giant Gonzalez, Yoko, and Fuji)

Superbowl 93 of the starting 44 has had two deaths. (Kent Hall and Mark Tuinei)

What the fuck.

I have so many questions.

My only one was, “I thought this was the professional wrestling thread?”

Didnt he just have a championship match?

Rumor is that WWE is trimming the books for a potential sale.

More likely buyer, NBC or FOX?

I was about to say FOX, but after thinking about it more I would think NBC. Moving all of WWE to Peacock would be a power move for the streaming service.
