[deindafy28]

Apparently he was discovered dead this morning (cause of death at the mo unknown), he was only 45...

One of the best big men the wrestling business ever saw

maybe he took steroids or some shit earlier in life and it caught up with him or maybe his lifestyle caught up with his biological clock
a human body can only take so much

i post a lot on a wrestling forum and am a huge fan of wwe. i remember bam bam from years ago and will always tink of him flying off the turnbuckle for a headbutt. very agile for a big man. rip bambam you flame headed wonder.

Somebody dies on wikipidea every month, I would reccomend witholding judgement on this until you can get independent confirmation.

But it if it true its to bad i remeber him to and i thought he was always a great wrestler. Not many big men went tothe top rope.

That sucks...these guys give their blood sweat and balls in that ring for Vincent K McAsshole so he gets richer and they become a "hey, did you hear so and so died and remember him?" It's too bad too that nobody ever has the facts straight (present company excluded) because they heard it from a guy who knows a guy and the dorks on espn don't report the facts cause it might cut into coverage of the australian open or the midsummerwinterfall xgames 209 and yellin booyah and makin snappy comments. Damn. I need more prozac!!!!!

[DIRTYTRAIN]

It's too bad I read the news reports about it he had been missing for several days and they found him dead in his home. The police are looking at it as a crime scene.

It's sad to see him go. I used to watch him back in the day. Rest in peace.

Damn another one. It seems like all the old wrestlers are dying off. Rick rude, Brian Pillman, Eddie Guerrero, Lex Luger, Steroids, I wonder........

Seems to be a trend with the widespread steroid use and aging athletes.Unfortunately I would expect more names to be added to the list in the next few years.

[i_went_poopie]

He was in his 40's, way too young. That guy was huge and he could do flips, jumps etc. Why do most of these wrestlers end up in poverty when the company makes $$$$millions ???

[joedeman9]

wow man, BAM...... BAM.... I rememebr his entrance music by heart right about now. That was deff one of the bes t wrestlers of that time. I belive during that time Tatanka, The Legion of Doom, Rick Rude, Shawn Michaels, and Lex Luger were huge. I miss when WWE was WWF. It was so much better, o how times change

[helena_toivo]

No way, Hulk Hogan rules!

[NCord]

I was quite a BamBam fan way back in the day.. I always thought Andre was cool too. Kinda wish they woulda ganged up and sat on hogan until he quit breathing.

Rip

[dtang3]

I was an ol skool fan too. I remember when he use to do cartwheels in the ring. Not bad for a big guy. RIP Bam Bam!

[vinny150]

too bad. i remember the days of Bam Bam Bigelow, Earthquake and Tugboat. RIP Man.

[jowblob]

remember Droz (puke)? I graduated highschool with him. It was wild watching someone you went too school with make it big, until he broke his neck. That sucked.................It is cool having action figures of someone you went too school with though................

I once met Bam Bam at a Hooters one night many years ago. I've never felt so small next to another person person. But for as big as he was, he was quite nice. He was with his son. He was a completely different person than I had expected him to be.
