Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow has passed away...

[Immortal1982]

Link from WWE website. (http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/bambampasses)

A highly talented professional wrestler, and a man who carried a match with Former NY Giant Lawrence Taylor. WWE gets a bad rap for overemphasizing on the entertainment, but a lot of these guys were pure athletes, Bigelow included. At his peak he was over 300 pounds, but was doing aerial moves better than guys half his size.

God speed.

I have been a fan of wrestling since I was a young kid, and remember Bam Bam very well. I will miss that guy.

The consummate wrestler and as good a guy in real life as he was a bad guy in the ring. It's sad to see him go.

I don't know how many people remember but a few years ago he witnessed a car crash. After said car crash, one of the vehicles burst into flames and with its occupants trapped. With no concern for himself, he ran to the vehicle and pulled everyone out. Suffered severe enough burns that it required some minor skin grafting to his arms.
