WWE is reporting Umaga has passed


WWE would like to express its deepest condolences to Mr. Fatu’s family, friends and fans on his tragic passing. Mr. Fatu was under contract with WWE at various time periods and most recently performed under the name "Umaga." Mr. Fatu's contract was terminated on June 11, 2009.

Former WWE star Umaga (Eddie Fatu) was removed from life support earlier this afternoon, reports WWE announcer Jim Ross, who says he spoke with a friend of Fatu's family.

Fatu's official death is expected to be announced this evening. He was on life support at a North Houston hospital after his wife found him unresponsive this morning at his home in Spring, Texas.

Fatu reportedly suffered a massive heart attack. We reported originally that Fatu was found bleeding from his mouth and nose when he was found in his home.

Really sucks. Truly one of the better big men, his Royal Rumble match with John Cena was fantastic. Apparently he was in contact with WWE again recently.

WWE Sinks to a New Low.
From WWE.com

WWE would like to express its deepest condolences to Mr. Fatu’s family, friends and fans on his tragic passing. Mr. Fatu was under contract with WWE at various time periods and most recently performed under the name "Umaga." Mr. Fatu's contract was terminated on June 11, 2009.

........

Thats good WWE that you all mentioned on when you terminated Umaga's contract when he just died. Wouldn't want any bad press to get on your company or have people think that he died while employed with the company.

What heartless, selfish assholes they are.

No surprise really. This will likely get press coverage due to his involvement in the Trump storyline and Linda running for the Senate.

Cold but not a surprise.

I can just hear the WWE spokes people now...

"No No, don't blame us for him dying, we fired him almost 6 months ago, June 11, 2009 to be exact."

This is what kind of world we live in now. Sad.

Hush. They mentioned him, which they didn't have to do, and in this case even mentioning him is probably not good for them. This isn't a new low, and I don't suppose we can hold off bitching about WWE for a while, given someone's dead....

You are completely 100% right, forgot all about that. So long ago. WWE has not sunk to a new low. The interview with Melanie Pillman the day after Brian's death was the lowest thing ever. Vince McMahon should be ashamed of himself.

Just the way they said it "He was terminated from his contract on June 11, 2009." That sounds so cold.

How about, "Umaga last performed with WWE until June of this year and was most recently on an independent wrestling tour of Australia, we send our condolences to his family."

That would have been much more professional and compassionate.

The wording sucks, but I don't find it to be malicious at all. I suppose they could've said "Fatu last appeared in the WWE at the Extreme Rules PPV" or something, but I don't think they meant any harm by it.

Now if they have CM Punk come out next week and tell us that he tried to tell Umaga to stop doing drugs and now he's dead, then yeah, that would be in bad taste.

It's ridiculous that they felt that they had to add the actual date they might as well have taken it a step further and have Vince McMahon come out and say "I didn't do it he screwed himself!" it makes them look more guitly if anything.

Well actually, in defense of that. i remember when Vince showed a soft side and showed compassion by letting Kurt Angle out of his deal back in 2006 when Kurt was in real bad shape.

Its good that Kurt pulled the wool over Vince's eyes though on that one because Vince deserved it. He screwed over so many other people.

The guy has suffered enough embarrassment, they publicly announced his wellness policy suspensions and his release when it happened. I just thought that in his death that the notice they posted should have been 100% respectful and it wasn't.

They publicly announce everyone's wellness policy suspensions. You really aren't indicating to me how telling everyone that he didn't work there at the time of his death is disrespectful.

Also, it isn't really the WWE's fault they would put something like that up there. When a wrestler dies, who is the first person Nancy Graces calls. The WWE. Writing when he stopping working for the company is just answering a question everyone is already going to ask.

They could have put his career information in a separate post on their site.

I really see no problem here.

WWE dumped Eddie Fatu cos he was a druggie. In fact, I think they sacked him cos he refused the help they offered him. He died (presumably) due to this reason. Why shouldn't they dissassociate themselves with the guy?

Yeah it's sad that the guy has passed at a young age, but WWE/Vince tried to help him, they should not shoulder any blame here. In noting when he left the company they are distancing themselves.

It would have been harse if the sentence read: Mr. Fatu was under contract with WWE at various time periods and most recently performed under the name "Umaga." Mr. Fatu's contract was terminated on June 11, 2009 when he wouldn't accept our offer to help him through the drug addiction that no doubt played a part in his eventual death.
