I stopped watching wrestling a long time a go but its always tragic when these guys have their lives cut short.

I wouldn't normally to jump into conclusions but, too many are dying from heart attacks. Whatever they are doing that they keep denying has got to be controlled or regulated. It got out of control a long time ago.

Honestly, I didn't really follow wrestling but I knew a lot of wrestlers b/c of my friends.

I never knew this guy.

Damn. Umaga was pretty good, it was a shock for a lot of people when he was fired recently.

WWE released him early this year, on account of creative having nothing for him storyline wise. there was talk of him feuding with the Undertaker on Smackdown, but those plans got scrapped

^yeah it's fucking enough, cut the PC bullshit, your grand-daddy employer isn't here looking over your shoulder. Bottom line is, "wrestlers" put themselves under extreme physical strain to "succeed" and they end up dying for it.

it's not a fuckin' mystery.

 

[Kobe]

[S O F I]
