Former ECW Champion Mike Awesome Passes Away


Former ECW World Heavyweight Champion Mike Awesome (real name Michael Alfonso) has passed away. He was found dead on Saturday evening in the Tampa area according to those close to the family. He was only 42 years old.

At about 10:30 p.m. on Saturday night, friends were going to his home in Tampa, Florida to pick him up and go out. He never answered the door and found him hanging in the home. It is believed the death was due to suicide pending results of the autopsy.

God's waiting room, or is the proximity to Hulk Hogan? He was found hanging, but they are going to rule it as suicide pending autopsy? Watch the coroner rule it death by steroids or some shit.

I was wondering about him the other day. He was the only guy from ECW/WCW that wasn't on any of the new shows... WWE, ECW, TNA, Wrestling Society X

 

[perkele]

Was he really that awesome?

 

[Arabian]

I looked up the wrestlers that had died and it mentioned that they died at a much larger rate due to the fact that they were on cycle 360 days a year with no down time and that they mixed alot of rec drugs such coke and pain killers.. The majority of the study group died of enlarged hearts thought to be caused by excessive use of juice.. I knew that alot of wrestlers died however I never knew that it was that high or that it was that severe

He was on WWE after ECW folded. However, he was not good at politics. (kissing ass) Also, he worked stiff.

He got alot of heat 2 yrs. ago when he was on the ECW ppv One Night Stand. All the fans thought he stole the show in his match. Alot of wrestlers were rumored to be jealous.

I tell you it's the Hulkster offing them. Or maybe it's a problem with the tap water at Tampa strip joints.

The Hulk just bought a 12 million dollar beach front home in Tampa.. Hes doing okay... I cant believe how much money he makes. I wonder if he has had any medical problems from staying on cycle all year long?

 

[The Shadow]

He wasnt on year round.

He IS now though...just signed a lifetime contact (20 years) with Vince
