WRESTLING RELATED POST, IF YOU DON'T CARE DON'T READ

...Wow. Eddie Fatu, age 36, dies of heart attack(s).

I'll admit, I only knew of him as Umaga in his second run in the WWE, so I didn't see him in his heyday, but he still had that same presence his family is known for.

Rest in peace, you crazy Samoan, and may you have many batshit crazy awesome matches with Eddie Guerrero. It's been a while since we've had a Latino/Samoan feud booked.

What really makes me sad is that it means I'll never get to hear William Regal fuck up pronouncing his ring name any more.

Yeah, I'll miss hearing him say, "U-MANGA", too.

I did a double-take when I saw this post since hardly anyone of my f-list likes rasslin.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUMAGA! I was sad to see this news yesterday although I was never a huge fan. He was so young. RIP indeed.

He was. Then again, the Samoan diet, especially for Samoan athletes, isn't known for being heart-healthy, so I can't say it really... doesn't make sense. Just goes to show it can happen any time, any where.
