    When Jerry Lewis blew up 4 or 5 yrs ago, it was because of steroid use for medical reasons. Of course, he's in his 70s, so one probably wouldn't expect him to buff up anyways.

    another one bites the dust...

    Mike Alfonzo aka Mike Awesome committed suicide... :(

    http://www.411mania.com/wrestling/news/50971/Mike-Awesome-Passes-Away.htm

    sad, sad, sad, tell you the truth, at least it wasn't drug related, but then again, its not good to hear someone thats gone. I was a late fan of his when he showed up WCW, he was a high-flyer in a 7 footers body. I remember his 80's gimmick which was laughable, then again, another Vince Russo creation :(

    it looks like its almost once a month now for a wrestler to pass :(

    I was a big wrestling when I was a kid. And Mr. Perfect is one of my wrestling hero. I love all his promo, especially the one he played every sports and perfected all of them.

    I'm perfect!

    Yeah, The Dynamite Kid(one of the best ever imo) is confined to a wheelchair.

    Surprised about Mike Awesome.

    let's have a wrestling dead pool.

    next person to correctly pick the next wrestler dies gets one ticket to a WWE Raw PPV in June.
    for a small price of $100, assuming I don't go.
