Another dead wrestler

Chase Tatum, a former competition bodybuilder who wrestled for years with WCW, was found dead at his home in Buckhead, Georgia, on Sunday afternoon at the age of 34.

The cause of death won't be determined until toxicology reports come in, but his father, Roy Tatum, said it appeared he died from an accidental drug overdose, as he had been battling a painkiller addiction problem dating back to his brief pro wrestling career.

Tatum's highest profile role was as a member of Master P's No Limit Soldiers.

He was never any good in the ring or a big star, so nobody will care.

Well.. it's sad when people die so young.

Of course it depends on the person.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Of course, but it's worse for the wrestling industry when it's, say, a former world champion.

 

[Dershocka]

Never heard of him.

 

[The Dork Lord]

Me either.

 

[Gagh]

Count me in there too.

I remember the No Limits Soldiers thing in WCW. It was when WCW got really bad.
