very amazing.
got an IM this morning from my coworker, the inside pulse guy. just very shocking news.
i heard it again, this evening, on cbs news radio, which was admittedly a bit surprising to me, due to wrestling's less-than-astounding mainstream reputation. but the report was very respectful, very serious, and actually lasted a good minute or so (this is one of those 20-second blurb news shows)
is eddie the only guy, outside of owen, who died while an active wrestler of a big name fed?
i was much more a fan of his during his skinnier, mulletier, wcwier days, as i rarely watch smackdown, if ever. always very entertaining. and the little bits i did see of him, as his character finally gained prominance, importance, and a belt, it really seems like he was a happy guy, who simply finally got his chance to shine.
the latter news report said taht they were still investigating, but the event showed no foul play, and no apaprent suicide. eddie has been supposedly clean for 4-5 years, but im not sure if "wwf clean" includes steroids or not.
whatever the case, its definitely a huge loss.
