Boudicca 702 Posted December 22, 2019 Are we talking about wrestlers now in the wrestling thread? I *was* going to refute the Omega Male accusation with photographic and video evidence to the contrary but I can't actually be bothered so you'll just have to trust me on this matter. Carry on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,637 Posted December 29, 2019 Feel like we should now be keeping a suicide check on Lars Sullivan. For the uninitiated, here's his past 12 months: get picked as a cant-miss superstar prospect and possible Wrestlemania headliner main roster debut delayed because he suffers anxiety attack backstage finally debuts old forum posts he wrote under his own name resurface, contain racism, homophobia and insults about his (now) WWE coworkers gets physically attacked for real in a match by Mexican wrestler angry at his anti-Hispanic comments injured for a year now it's discovered he was a gay porn actor before wrestling, with his real initials tattooed on his shoulder and thus removing any plausible deniability 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,543 Posted January 12, 2020 The AAA La Parka has died after failing to recover from injuries sustained in a match last year. He was 56. Not to be confused with the 1990s La Parka who was a cult hero of mine in WCW. He now wrestles as LA Park after losing a copyright battle with Mexican company AAA who handed the original gimmick to the guy who just died. Quote During a Kaoz show on October 21, 2019 La Parka dove out of the right, ending up missing his opponent Rush and instead hit the steel barrier and concrete floor head first.[68] The impact was so severe that the paralyzed La Parka was immediately taken to Monterrey's OCA hospital. While in the hospital, he did start to regain feelings to his extremities.[68] Early the next morning he underwent surgery for his neck and cervical fractures as well as relieve pressure to parts of his upper body.[69][70] It was reported that not only did the injury threaten La Parka's career, but could have been fatal.[70] The following day a fake press release was circulated stating that La Parka had died, which was identified as false by AAA hours later.[71].
