Bryan Adams Found Dead
 

World Wrestling Entertainment has learned that Bryan Adams, also known to our fans as Crush, has been found dead today. More details are unknown; stay tuned to WWE.com as they become available.

From WWE.com.

FRAGILE X SYNDROM



( in )

:nono:

Dear god I hope it wasn't roids or ANY kind of drugs...

And another one gone.

This one time, WWF came to Indianapolis. It was a house show. And the day before they had WWE superstars autographing junk and it was Crush and Road Warrior Animal. Crush was a dick and i'm pretty sure he had Fragile X syndrome at the time cause he grabbed his shoulder and said " ohhh my fragile x is acting up ".

Whatever he died of he'll be lumped into "X Number of wrestler deaths" lists.

:-\

Who else died from the X?

Is it weird that I immediately thought this topic was about the singer of the same name?

Anyways, RIP.

I did to. I bet it is.

I love that Robin Hood song

Yey, more ROIDS talk on CNN tonight.

Shut up, they haven't even found the cause yet.

He could have slipped on a banana peel and broken his crazy neck for all we know.

Can't say I'll be suprised if it is drug related.

R.I.P.

That wouldn't stop the media from bringing roids into it.

"He died from falling off a cliff. Our expert believes it was suicide caused by steroid use."

I really don't think the media is going to give a single mother fuck about Bryan Adams.

They don't, but they'll use it and propel it into a bigger issue.

Nah I'd definitely be surprised if there was no media coverage on this, considering how close it happened to the Benoit thing. That and the fact that Adams didn't exactly have a reputation for clean living.

Oh, I agree. I'm just stating that the news will blame it on roids until all esle fails.

Jeezus, another one down. It's getting to the point where this shit is becoming practically routine.

Ah, I used to hate Demolition, in a child like "you baddies!! boooo" way. So they did their job as heels which is more than half the bloody roster can do today.

Anyway R.I.P

Was his wife and kid found dead too?

Or Chris Benoit. Seriously, that fucker's unhinged.

RIP

It was the D.O.A obviously.

I know this Benoit thing has de sensitized alot of people to this type of thing, but fuck man! He's just died with no known cause. Heck I still make jokes about the Benoit thing to mask how disgusted I really am with the situation, but don't let it pass onto to others that have died.

He was alright back in the day, I enjoyed his Hawaiian face run when he used the Crush as his finisher, his match with Savage at Mania 10 was fun. Plus he was part of the original nation of domination.

Didn't really follow him after WCW, knew he was part of Kronic and then the match with the least amount of selling on ppv ever. Taker/Kane Vs Kronic will always go down as a funny moment.

Back in my mark days I used to love him and his feud with Doink and when he turned heel on Savage will always be remembered.

RIP

What Dave said. R.I.P.

I was a fan of his back in the day when he had the that bright orange and purple costume with the "Crush" finisher.

Also was a huge fan of Kronic, and they're actually one of my top ten teams of all time. Sure their WWE run sucked, but I really liked them in WCW.

:(

So uh... how many has that been this year?

I remember seeing him do a pose on the second rope popping wood.

Shut the fuck up. If you can joke about Benoit's death to cope, don't fucking tell other people what to do to cope, you hypocritical fuck.

I don't want to take away from Demolition, but if you were a kid today, you'd probably still just boo all the heels.

Aww, now I'm kinda sad since I realize that the Crush/Doink feud can't ever be recreated. I seriously loved that.

The one thing that I remember about him oddly enough is that he was Bret Harts first opponent in WCW...

RIP

It's really bad when deaths are now instantly mocked.

It's hard to really give a shit.

I'm not really trying to mock him, but it's Bryan Adams, for shit sake. What kind of a connection did I have with him? Sucks for his family, sure, but I mean...I'm not gonna lose any sleep over this.

Yeah you'd be happy if people said that about someone in your family dying.

Respect doesn't exist on the Internet though Rob.

I forgot respect and humour were mutually exclusive.

Glad you're catching up.

I believe you just called me a chink.

Yeah, I think I did, wanna figh-Fuck, now I'm a yellow-font chink.

Doink did it :shifty:

I liked Hawian Crush as a kid, was so mad at Mania 9 with the two Doinks things (although looking back, it was genious). Probably the only match I really remember of his was at Mania 10 against Savage, that was such a kick ass match.

Read on WWE.com that he suffered a serious spinal injury a couple of years back, not sure whether that contributed to his death.

RIP

That's because of what Benoit did days before the death, the second it was announced he was dead everyone was in shock and at the time of not knowing any details everyone would of been really down and no one would of made any jokes about it.

Since more info came out I (and I feel many others) rather than morning the death, block it out using defenses like humor because of what he did, not because of the death.

I think what's been said so far in this thread has nothing to do with Bryan Adams and is more people trying to get cheap laughs off the back of Benoit, which I don't agree with as this should be considered a separate entity IMO.

A wrestler who was fairly successful has died, don't make jokes about it because another wrestler killed his family and himself last month.

I watched him as Crush and I watched him in WCW, but for the life of me I can't remember a single match he was in.

Sympathy and respects to his family and loved ones, but it's no great loss to pro wrestling.

If it was somebody that didn't know my family, I wouldn't give a shit. Condolences to the Clark family. Is that better?

WoW.

What comment, "it's no great loss to pro wrestling".

Yes, because your own career spanned a long time and you contributed so much. I also never was aware that measuring one's importance in wrestling [or anything else] measures their importance in life.

Ridiculous. The best comments I have read in this thread came from Rob.

Thank you Rob.

R.I.P. to Bryan Adams, and thanks for the memories.

......now this one hits me kinda hard. No matter what his gimmick was like I've always been a fan of Bryan Adams. He was one of the few powerhouses that I've liked.
Hell, the other day I was thinking of how many people need to steal his pineapple crush. It would work well for Chris Masters, The Great Khali, or any other powerhouse.
I loved his fued with Randy Savage and Doink. As a part of Demolition he had a great match with The Legion of Doom.

If you didn't see him in the ring you missed out.

Rest in Peace
Shaka



Before someone asks me what "Shaka" means it's a greeting in Hawaii and other Pacfic cultures. It means hello, good bye, and a few other things.

'Shaka bra'...I remember him saying that

I used to live in Hawaii. It felt so cool to know that I knew what Crush was saying, but most of my friends had no idea.

Could someone on the east coast do me a favor? PM me if they show anything about Bryan Adams on Raw, please?
If they show anything I'm going to cry (go on, laugh and make fun of me, but at least I'm honest), and since I'm watching Raw with a few friends I'd like a bit of a heads up.

Haha, you're a pussy.

He was also Adam Bomb, right?

Hope his death isn't shrouded in talk of roids or pain killers, etc. Crazy crazy amounts of wrestlers deaths.

Yup. It's always different.

Doink did it.

The evil news media is already all over this, by the way. ;)

No he wasn't Adam Bomb.

Bryan Clarke (who was Crush's tag team partner in Kronik) was Adam Bomb.

Wow. What the hell is going on?

R.I.P.

Maybe Bryan Adams was listening to a Brian/Bryan Adams song and he blocked his ears to not listen. But he acciently blocked too hard, Cranium Crunching himself and his head exploding.

Nah, seriously, RIP Crush. Another one is gone. How many have gone in the past year? Its sad.

RIP

This year so far. Bad News, Bam Bam, Awesome, Skaaland, Ladd, Wellington, Barr, Sherri, Woman, Benoit, Kronus, and Crush. Thats quite a list of well known names.

Also, Bronco Lubich died.

This is where everyone here says, "Who?".

WCCW Ref.

RIP

R.I.P. Crush. :'(

The Cranium Crunch finish still sucks, though.

Now, the first person who suggests that Chris Masters should use the Atomic Noogie after Sgt. Slaughter dies will be forced to watch a Great Khali - Giant Gonzales 30 day Iron Man Match: FIVE TIMES. IN A ROW.

I marked the fuck out for babyface Crush back in the day. And was pissed when he got beat by the 2 Doinks at Mania.

RIP

If he was crushed to death that would be hilariously ironic.

RIP

Nope that was Bryan Clark

I remember reading about him in Foley's book, but aside from that, nothing.

RIP to Bronco and Bryan.

If only he were on the wellness policy damn it!

I shouldn't laugh, but....:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

CNN's got an article up. They're blaming steroids. DAMN YOUSE, NEWS MEDIA! :'(

Whatever you do,
Wherever you go,
I will be right here waiting for youuuuuuu.

Pro wrestler Brian Adams dead

44-year-old wrestler found unconscious in his home--Steroids suspected



TAMPA, FLA. (AP) -- Former pro steroid wrestling champion Brian "Crush" Adams died Monday after he was found unconscious in his home. He was 44 and on steroids. He showed no visible signs of injury and foul play was not suspected, police spokeswoman Janelle McGregor said, though she noted the use of steroids as a factor. Authorities were awaiting autopsy results from the medical examiner before proceeding with their investigation. But come on, I mean, really.

Adams' wife, who was not identified as a steroid user, found her husband not breathing and called 911 about 11 a.m. Fire Rescue workers later pronounced him dead, McGregor said. Adams, a former world tag team champion, last performed for the World Wrestling Federation in 2001 and served intermittently on the roster beginning in 1990, World Wrestling Entertainment said.
WWE spokesman George Cabico had no further comment. Except steroids. Steroids steroids steroids steroids steroids.

Adams death comes less than two months after pro wrestler Chris Benoit killed his wife and son before hanging himself on the cable of a weight machine in his Georgia home. Prescription anabolic steroids were found in the family's home, raising questions about whether the drugs played a role in the killings. Steroids.

R.I.P. Crush.

Granted, his match vs Randy Savage at WrestleMania X was maybe the only good match of his career (actually, his Chicago Street Fight at WrestleMania 13 was the second best match of the night I suppose)... but nevertheless, it's always a shame to hear of a young death in the business, and somebody's worth shouldn't be measured in opinion of his wrestling ability, that's just short-sighted and selfish.

R.I.P. Brian Adams

Summerslam 1990 vs. the Hart Foundation was awesome.

Everyone seems to forget that Crush was in Demolition before he was a gay smiling Hawaiian. :mad:

I say " How?".

Chris Benoit choked him out.

Wait, so every time someone dies of a particular cause, we have to point out that any given person associated with them is not involved in that particular thing?

"District Attorney Fred Picklefeather, who is not now nor has ever been on steroids, had the following to say: 'We were notified by his wife, who is not on steroids, that he had stopped breathing. Deputy Van Halen, who is also not on steroids, accompanied me to the building with our police dog Jerry Lee, whom it would be ridiculous to suggest is on steroids. Afterwards we went to McDonalds, where we were served by a lovely waitress who has not been identified as a steroid user. After leaving work I returned home and made love to my wife, who is also not on steroids.'"

I thought Destor died too. RIP Adams anyway.

I only remember his time in Kronik, which I honestly was never a huge fan of, but it's always bad to see wrestlers die at such a young age, whatever the reason.

RIP

Me too. RIP.

So...Dead at 44 with no visible signs of trauma and no suspected foul play.

If the media actually did go with the drugs angle, would you lot throw a hissyfit over it?

Heart Attack.


Or Dick Cheney sucked his soul out. Kinda the same thing, really...

*Hart Attack

:rofl:

Sigh. Shit. I loved almost all of his WCW work. I guess I'll never see Kronik again for sure. Rest in peace.

Wait, Skaaland died? Fuck, I missed that one - this is getting worse.

RIP Adams... Read this on .Com the other day and almost said out loud something to the effect of 'There goes another..'

Why can't it stop?

:( Damn! Another one! Another boyhood favorite...gone....gone forever. :'(

I'll miss you Crush. I always liked you...although when you were in Demolition, I wondered what happened to Ax...but I still like you and loved your feuds with Doink the Clown and the Macho Man when I was a kid. Thanks for the memories Sir. :wavesad: May you rest in peace.

Death sucks. :n:

Sounds like it was MISTAAAAAAAAAAA STEROIDS...













...STEROIDS!
