deaths

of 12 wrestlers rejected by wwe's number 12 dino bravo a dino bravo had a career in WWE from 1986-92 and although he never broke into the top of the card, he was one of the strongest wrestlers to ever set foot in the ring. Now Bravo's death was one of the strangest that has happened in the world of wrestling, since he was shot 17 times while watching a hockey game.

Because? Did this happen? Well, many believe it had something to do with his marital relationship with Montreal mobster Vic Catroni and due to the nature of his passing, the WWE did not recognize him as Ludwig Borger's number 11, for those who are not familiar with Ludwig Borger had a brief career. in the wwf during the new generation era and his greatest achievement was actually breaking tatanka's undefeated streak, however after suffering an ankle injury in '94, burger opted to leave wrestling and began a career in mma, unfortunately in 2010 Burger took his own life. wwe made no mention of his passing at all, which was sad to see that Burger went through a difficult time after his departure from wwe number 10 jack tunney jack tunney was a huge part of wwe programming from 84-95, as would act like the actor on screen. president of the wwf and being the central authority figure on wwe television, this was a time before wwe fans knew that vince mcmahon was actually the president and running the entire show and that tony was believable in Tony would later be released from the company and leave on bad terms as he had fallen out with WWE senior management, including Vince McMahon.

Sadly, in 2004 he passed away after suffering a heart attack at the age of 69. WWE would never acknowledge his passing it was reported that no staff attended his funeral number nine chris canyon chris canyon had a moderately successful career in wcw fans felt he had much more potential as his charisma was certainly there and when wc we bought the WCW in 2001 fans felt Canyon might finally get a chance to shine, but sadly it was no bee cannon, barely used due to a mix of injuries and no concrete plans for the former US champion leading to his release in 2004.

In 2010, although unfortunately Kenyon would take his own life and pass away. at the age of 40 years. wwe didn't mention canyon's passing on television and the best thing they did was post a brief statement on wwe.com number eight crash holly a crash holly was one of the most entertaining wrestlers of the attitude era in his career the hardcore division was one of the best comedy segments they have ever produced and holly actually won the hardcore title 22 times unfortunately after the attitude era ended and wwe abolished the title while he didn't really have any concrete plans in the company he eventually led upon his release in the summer of 2003.

Unfortunately, Hollywood passed away in November of that same year because he had suffered an overdose at the home of his good friend Stevie Richards. He was only 32 years old. We would never acknowledge Holly's passing, however, in 2005. He was included in a tribute video at the ecw one night stand pay-per-view, which was at least a sign of respect and condolence, however, he deserved many more viscera number seven. WWE's lack of acknowledgment of Viscera's passing actually led to many online backlash now Visra had a long career in WWE as she played a character named Mabel in the mid 90's before being repackaged as Viscera and would be a key part of the Undertaker's ministry of darkness towards the end of the era of ruthless aggression.

He would once again be repackaged, but this time he would be known as Big Daddy V Fisaro. would pass away in 2014 due to a heart attack which left many fans and fellow wrestlers deeply saddened as we were unable to acknowledge his passing on raw which left many fans very disappointed, however they would finally release a short tribute the following week and the Fans weren't sure if this was released due to fan pressure or if we actually already had tribute number 6 planned. Lance Cade Lance Cade had all the tools to be a major star in WWE after a successful tank team. along with trevor murdoch kate would form an alliance with chris jericho this alliance would be a central part of the legendary feud in 2008 between jericho and shaw michaels and fans believed that they were planning to make cade their next big star unfortunately this was not the case, since cade would be released the same year after suffering a seizure on a plane thanks in part to his abusive pills, just two years later he would die from an overdose at just 29 years old.

The former WWE did not mention Kade's passing, as it seemed to be an unwritten rule at the time that if a wrestler passed away from a drug-related death, then it would not be mentioned in any way on WWE programming, obviously. , this movement received a lot of rejection. and criticism from many fans and it took WWE several years to see how immoral this Hercules number five was. Hercules was best known in the '80s for feuding with the likes of Hulk Hogan and Ted Dibiase before forming a memorable tag team. team with paul roma known as power and glory hercules would eventually retire in 1999 because he wanted to spend more time with his family, unfortunately six years after retirement he would pass away at his home and heart disease was the official cause that wwe did not recognize.

His passing and has never been mentioned on television since his time with the company, Test number four, Tess certainly should have been a big star in WWE, debuting in '98, Test would eventually join Vince's corporate stable. mcmahon before starting a romantic story. Under Stephanie McMahon over the next few years, he would have a decent run on the midcard and even win the Intercontinental Title, but would sadly never ascend to the top of the card in 2009, four days before his 34th birthday test passed away. accidental overdose, later dr. bennett ambalu would reveal that tess suffered from cte and revealed that cte seriously affected tess's behavior and mental state.

WWE would never mention his passing, a move that left fans extremely disappointed. Tess was a key part of the Attitude Era and fans had fond memories of her work, so not seeing her receive the tribute she deserved was seen as distasteful by WWE's number three, whether O'Hare, Shawn O'Hare, or 'hare was a major role in the final months of wcw. O'Hare programming formed half of the natural thriller team alongside Chuck Palombo and fans believe that the two were going to be the future of WCW, however, when the purchase was made in 2001, their future was up in the air, the duo would join together. wwe and debuted in the summer of 2001, but it wasn't long before o'hare was sent to ovw for further development in 2003 and they planned to have o'hare debut on the smackdown brand with a new devil's advocate gimmick. and would even have the legendary roddy piper by his side although the gimmick had a lot of potential and although it was clear that o'hare had improved his skills in the ring he would be released the following year o'hare would struggle with depression and alcoholism in the years after of his release and would take his own life in 2014 when he died at the age of 43.

O'Hare's passing would never be mentioned on television, but they nevertheless issued a brief statement in issue two of wwe.com. the clown matt osborne matt osborne was well known for playing the original doink the clown the original doink was an evil and evil clown who often played pranks on his opponents in 1993, however osborne would be released from wwe after he was fired for repeatedly smoking drugs in the hallway of the hotel where WWE talent was staying, the character would be taken over by Ray Apollo, but Osborne would have the opportunity to reprise the role for Raw's 15th anniversary in 2007 during a brief appearance, unfortunately in 2013, Osborne passed away.

Due to an overdose, his family would soon file a lawsuit against WWE, who stated that blows to Osborne's head during his WWE career ultimately contributed to his early death and number one umaga umaga made his WWE debut in 2002 and will play the well-known character. as jamal and would be part of eric bischoff's three minute warning stable the stable was short lived and would later be repackaged as umaga a character he would find great success with bitter would have memorable fights with the likes of john cena bobby lashley triple h and jeff hardy with some fans saying he is one of the biggest superstars to never win the wwe title unfortunately in 2009 omar would be released from his contract after failing wwe's wellness policy just a few months after his release magician will pass away after that a mixture of pills was found in his body, umaga was only 36 years old, wwe would not acknowledge umaga's passing on television, however, according to wwe legend chris jericho, vince mcmahon was extremely upset regarding His passing, Jericho stated during an episode. from the jericho talkies i remember how legit and sad vince was about it because at that point i think they had let margar go because he wasn't going to rehab and i remember vince actually saying that i tried, that i didn't want this to happen, that could.

Don't do anything like you're not going to do it on your own, there's nothing we can do, but he was really gutted about it because I think in Eggy's mind, Mcmahon had a lot more that he could have done if he hadn't. made. fallen into those traps that happened to so many of the brothers over the years
