I don't normally comment on wrestler deaths, but this one...I don't know how to describe it. It's not shock, but it's jarring. When I first started watching, I was weirdly drawn to Brian Christopher. One of my favorite looking spots, as weird as this is going to sound, is him taking the trash can from Kane in the 2001 Royal Rumble. Always liked the guy, but kind of tuned out when all the issues started -- and maybe that's why I'm responding to it -- because it's something that should have been seen coming but wasn't?

I've only learned recently how much potential he was perceived as having circa 1992. From Gertner actually. Having that much potential can lead to expectations in your mind that can never be lived up to.
