Wrestler Dies

Anyone who has seen wrestling has heard of "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith. He was a great wrestler of the WWF & WCW.

Here's an article from the UK's top wrestling website wrasslin.com:

quote:
"British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith died of an apparent heart attack Saturday morning at age 39, according to WrestlingObserver. Smith was on vacation in Envereme, British Columbia.

Smith had tagged with his son, Harry Smith, last weekend in Brandon, Manitoba and Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Smith had been battling drug addiction. including from pain killers. He spent time in hospital last year for major health problems.

Bulldog originally became a major star in the U.S. as part of the British Bulldog tag team with Dynamite Kid. He later became a singles star in the WWF.

It will be interesting to watch how WWE handles the death, since Smith falls into a category of a wrestler dying too young for his age (unlike Lou Thesz and Wahoo McDaniel), and may add fuel to critics who decry that wrestling, as promoted by WWE, encourages dangerous lifestyles among wrestlers.

On behalf of all of us at this website, we send our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Davey Boy Smith.


I would also like to extend my condolences to his family.

My brothers were into wrestling when it was actually cool and one of their favorites was the British Bulldog. They'll be horribly sad. Speaking of brothers loving wrestling. I'm the baby of the family and I have had many a DDP and a sharpshooter and a body slam practiced on me.

You mean DDT not DDP right? DDP is a person ans DDT is a move.

But the DDT is a move where they take your head under their left arm pit and they land back first on the mat and you hit head first.

I never knew that, and that's because I don't watch wrestling whatsoever.
