7 Wrestlers you didn't know were dead

There is no getting away from the fact that death in the world of wrestling happens much too often

#5 Umaga

Umaga passed away from a heart attack that is believed to have been induced by drug usage

Umaga - a member of the famed Fatu wrestling family - was pushed to the moon facing off against the likes of Triple H, John Cena, and Bobby Lashley. Despite this, his push was abruptly cut off with a major loss against Cena and the monster soon found himself on the wrong side of the WWE’s Wellness Policy.

While the WWE tried multiple times to get Umaga into rehab, he was steadfast in his refusal and the company was forced into releasing from his contract. Shortly after that - in 2009 - he passed away from a heart attack that is believed to have been induced by drug usage.
