Hairy Wrestler Goes on Rampage, Killing One
 

From PWInsider:

In a sad story, The Associated Press reported today that an Ohio man was mauled and killed by a bear used in wrestling stunts while he and the bear's owner were feeding it.

The bear was outside of its cage, according to comments Capt. James Drozdowski of the Lorain County Sheriff's Office gave to the AP. There was no word as to why the bear became aggressive.

Brent Kandra, 24, passed away this morning due to injuries suffered in the mauling. Kandra worked for Sam Mazzola, who maintained several bears on his property and offered the chance to wrestle bears at the Cleveland Sport, Travel & Outdoor show. The practice had come under fire in recent years but Mazzola refused to end it.

Traveling wrestling bears were commonplace as a special attraction in the territory era of professional wrestling, although they haven't been used in many, many, many years.

Clearly steroids are the cause of this....

The bear must've taken more than Roger Clemens.

I think it was going to be about Giant Gonzales...

do you think he's trimmed his pubes yet?

Vince needs to book John Cena vs The Bear for Wrestlemania.

The bear wins or we riot.

If I had to guess I would say it's because it's a fucking bear.
