Well I heard he was kind of responsible for breaking Candido's ankle, I'm just suggesting that if that is the case, people sometimes take on a lot of guilt, even if it really isn't their fault

This is ashame. The guy was just starting to get his life together again and it's over.

Was never a fan of his, but he was a great preformer hands down.

Now I haven't been a big fan of his since his arrival in TNA, but man was he the shits in ECW. More then being awesome in the ring and entertaining on the mic, from my understanding he was just one of the boys who loved to hang out and have a good time. A genuine nice guy. In an industry like this, to be able to have any leve of sucess and still maintain yourself to be a good person is hard. To his family and friends they will be in my thoughts. Good bye, you will be missed.

Rest in Peace.

In September 2004, here in my hometown of Edison, I recall going to the annual Family Day Fair (a small carnaval placed on by the town each year), and apart of it was some small wrestling promotion. When I got there, it was the first thing that had caught my attention, and one of the first wrestlers I saw here was Chris Candido. At first glance, I was like "wow, how the mighty have fallen" being this was a free show being placed on in a baseball field with an incredibly small, dull audience. However, he was the one guy to get a good reaction out of them, and even keep me entertained enough to go over and sit down at ringside.

When I had heard tha TNA had hired him, I was happy. I felt that this was a second chance or so for Candido to do his craft on a decent stage. However, that my also be the reason I feel sad now. I got to see Chris go from working a baseball field in Edison, NJ with people who couldn't give a rats ass, to being a member of the second biggest federation currently in the nation. It makes me sad to see him pass away just as his life was coming back together.

People rush themselves atfer injuries far too much. Your body needs time to recover, if he flew after the surgery, then he was fucking stupid. All respect to his dedication, and may he rest in peace.

He was definently becoming one of my favorites again in TNA. His character had so much potential and its sad to see this happen....

I wonder what will happen to The Naturals now that this has happened. He was sorta there partner and mentor for the past few months.

I don't really know much about Chris Candido, but I've always heard nothing but praise for him.

Regardless, it is terrible to see him go when he was finally getting his life in order, and at such a young age too. My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

One of the most depressing tragedies of the wrestling business. This man had just overcome all of his personal demons, he was in the best shape of his life, and about the enter the prime of his wrestling career. I fondly remember watching him while I was growing up and am really sad to see him go. There is a wonderful Video Tribute over at the ROH Fan Creations Forum that I recommend all of you watch.

RIP Chris/Skip You will be missed

World Wrestling Entertainment is saddened by the passing of Chris Candido.

Chris appeared in WWE as Skip of the Bodydonnas in the mid 1990s. He also competed for ECW and WCW, and held both the WWE and ECW World Tag Team titles and the WCW Cruiserweight Championship. He was an amazing athlete and a gifted performer, and we offer our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

CHRIS CANDIDO
1972 – 2005

TNA Wrestling joins the entire wrestling world in mourning the untimely death of Chris Candido on Thursday night.

TNA is deeply devastated by the loss of Chris, who touched the lives of millions of fans around the world during his successful career.

We hope everyone will keep Candido’s friends and family in their thoughts and prayers as we say goodbye to a friend

Early Friday morning, Chris Candido's brother Johnny posted the following message to fans on the USAProwrestling.net website:

"I find it only fitting you hear the truth from me about the death of my bestfriend, brother, and soulmate. Chris died tonight due to a blood clot brought on by complications with his surgery.

I just want to tell everyone that in their sorrow, find a way to be happy that he went out the way he wanted to...on top of the world, blonde, tan, and loving life up until the last minute. Every ounce of my brother loved this sport, and for him to go out 2 or 3 years ago wouldn't have been a fitting end to the life of such a determined, passionate, and benevolent human being.

I truly view my brother as an angel as will all who knew him. Thanks to everyone for all your positive press, Chris went out a happy man and will forever live on as the(one of) greatest of all time. He would have had it no other way."

Once again RIP Chris

You know, not to change the focus off of Chris - because obviously it needs to be, but it needs to be mentioned [if Siaki is responsible for said ankle injury as well] that someone should take Siaki out of a wrestling ring - for the safety of everyone else.

Siaki is the same guy who crushed Alan Funk's face, literally, and basically killed the heat off the man's career, almost ending it, and in the process cost him lots of $$$ and causing him to have facial surgeries that obviously cause a great deal of pain. He's also injured countless others.

Anyhow, back to discussing Chris. RIP.

This was quite a shock. Anything I could say has already been said, but I will say that I've watched him since the Body Donnas to some of his ECW stuff and just caught up to his time in TNA (in fact, I was watching the show as I read the story so it just hit me hard) and he was a hell of a worker. I wasn't a big fan but I respect his dedication to the end for the business and it is just sad when it happens to someone who works so hard through so much in their life.

My condolensces go out to Tammy and his family. RIP Candido.

On this Funk guy, could you elaborate on the situation which led to the facial injuries?

Really Great ending to Impact. Candido delievered a nice promo hugging the tag belts from the floor. Then the screen freezed with him holding the belts and he had a joyous look on his face and did the date of birth-date of death thing.

Alan Funk, for anyone wondering, is also known as 'The Funkster', Bruce (in NWA-TNA) or as he's best known - "Kwee Wee", formerly of WCW. Anyhow, Funk is working a tag match with Siaki (I believe back in 2003) overseas in the UK or somewhere.

Siaki totally fucks up a top rope moonsault, and lands square on Funk's face - from the fucking top rope. He cracked his orbital bone, and I believe broke his jaw, nose, some other bones, and I believe his eardrum was injured as well. I remember this when it first happened, as I had e-mailed Alan my best wishes. I have also read a great deal of reports of Siaki injuring indy workers, and you can tell (if you've ever wrestled) that he is totally sloppy in the ring.

Fuck... Hot damn, poor guy. RIP. I only saw Candido's WCW stuff, he seemed decent. I heard from someone that they were trying to book him for the ECW up-coming PPV...

This thread isn't about who injured Chris Candido. It should be a post about your fondest memories of Chris or sending condolences to his family. Something has to be seriously wrong with you to try to stir shit at a time like this.
