This death really does not surprise me. He was arrested in the mid 1990s for possession of anabolic steroids. He was a 300 pound guy who probably used steroids and other drugs for the majority of his career. His heart probably just gave out. However, this is all specualtion at this point. It could be a car-wreck or suicide....but as Gorilla Monsoon would say "Highly Unlikely"
I won't be suprised if the next name we hear passing away is Scott Steiner, Scott Hall or Jake Roberts...

Masters and Dupree were sent to rehab because drugs, which were rumored to be steroids, showed up on their testing resume. Orton has been sent to rehab and is also rumored to have been on steroids. Mysterio, yet another one of the accused, was mysteriously kept off of TV until a later date after the drug testing archives of Benoit's doctor, who was also Rey's doctor, showed up. Am I saying WWE is punishing all of those whose tests come out positive for drugs? No, because I don't know and neither do you. (I will say that its awfully hard to get a physique like Lashley's from steroids though) But at least some have been punished, so there is some order in the WWE. And I would rather take Chris Jericho's word on the testing policy over Mero's, considering Jericho was subject to it. He said an outside corporation with no links to WWE run the tests, and WWE use a three-strike "no favorites" policy on the tested. Now, how accurate that is, I don't know. But its closer than anything Mero has. Ya, it did Masters alot of good. There "well-ness policy" has too many loop holes in it. the fact hat Benoit passed, while having testosterone levels that were 59-1, which is any other sport would have you banned, speaks volumes. Masters was send to rehab, but look at him now, he's ballooned back up. they have a policy, but looking at the guys like Cena, Lashley and Batista would make you think otherwise. I bet every WWE wrestler would fail a drug test done by a state athletic commission. Vince himself would fail horribly. Shut the **** up you guys. Your off topic, and you shouldn't be arguing like little kids about steroids when one great wrestler just passed away. You guys are heartless, why are you arguing, shut up and just show your respect for those who have passed on R.I.P. Crush. He was one of the classic wrestlers I really liked, especially when he was in Demolition. This is getting too far. I just want all these deaths to stop. Benoit, Sherri, Bam Bam, and now Crush, for starters. My prayers are with Crush/Brian's family .

Shockingly, I don't expect Jake Roberts to die anytime soon. As others have noted, these deaths are becoming so frequent that we just don't react to them anymore.

I think both Scotts still have plenty of life in them, they wont be dying that soon. At this rate the next time a wrestler dies will be next month or later this month. I hate to say it but the next wrestler to die in my opinion will be older than 50.

Damn, that sucks. I hate to say it, but I'm assuming that it's drug-related...
I just finished doing 2 Crush customs, one from his NOD days and an Evil Crush. That was when I enjoyed him the most in the ring, personally.

Wow.
Why do I have a very bad feeling that the next death we have is going to be a huge one.
I got chills after typing that. RIP Crush.

Can't believe that these young wrestlers all die in their mid 40s.

RIP thanx for the memories crush Yeah, you're welcome for the avatar. Nice to see you uploaded it on a different image hosting than me....Oh wait... I think I know how you became a bad trader on this forum. Just like you stole my sig and used it as your avatar, you probably stole from someone else. Once a thief, always a theif.
