Mike Follis passed away this afternoon. The name may not ring a bell, but his face would be instantly recognizable to thousands of wrestling fans.
In his role as part of the Atlas Security team, he worked shows all over the country dating back to the ECW days and continuing more recently at TNA house shows and pay-per-view events.
Mike was a genuinely nice guy who absolutely loved being a part of the wrestling business. He will be missed.
Our condolences go out to the family and friends of Mike Follis.

Ah man, that sucks. When I went to a house show about two months ago a Don West looking guy was the first to come through the entrance and I said "YES A DON WEST LOOKING GUY IS HERE!" I'm assuming that was him.
RIP Mike.
