He was killed in an auto accident in 1988 in Newfoundland along with Dave "Wildman" McKigney and I believe Mike Kelly of the Kelly twins .
The driver of a rented mini van swerved to miss hitting a moose , it was believed to be one of the Kelly twins (Pat or Mike) that was driving , the van wound up in a lake and the three that died drowned ..

Kurt Angle Arrested for Being Drunk in a Car

3/25/2011 2:50 PM PDT by TMZ Staff

Wrestling superstar Kurt Angle was arrested early this morning in North Dakota ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... highway patrol in Grand Forks found Angle sitting in his car in the median separating lanes. We're told Angle told cops he had hit an icy patch in the road. During the conversation, cops say they smelled alcohol on Angle's breath. He failed a field sobriety test and was arrested.

Since cops didn't see Angle driving, he was arrested and later charged with being in control of a motor vehicle while intoxicated -- which basically means he was allegedly drunk behind the wheel but not actually driving

According to multiple sources within TNA Wrestling, there was no indication that Jeff Hardy was in no condition to perform throughout the day of last week's Victory Road pay-per-view event.

"He was fine all day and then no one could find him," according to a company source.

Shortly before Hardy's match with Sting, production managers James Tilquist (a/k/a Big Tilly) and Bruno Sassi found him in or around his trailer.

"They had to carry him from his trailer to the gorilla position," stated an observer, whose story was deemed true by other employees.

Concern increased over the way Hardy stumbled during his ring entrance. TNA sources believe Eric Bischoff, who was at the "gorilla position," called the audible. He headed to the ring to deliver the altered match plans to Hardy and Sting while also announcing to the audience that it would be a No Disqualification Match.

Following the brief main event match, Sting responded to "bull****" chants by reportedly saying "I agree." He headed backstage and there were no visible issues with management. Meanwhile, Hardy remained in the ring and played up the "bull****" chants. He was led back to his trailer after arriving backstage. There were no visible confrontation between Hardy and management after the show.

The decision to not use Hardy for the week's iMPACT! tapings was made the following day. It was speculated backstage that Hardy would not be used again until his legal situation is finalized. Additionally, management has yet to address the situation with the wrestlers.

TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter was backstage at the Monday iMPACT! taping, but was not backstage at Tuesday or Wednesday's shows. She reportedly went on a vacation to Mexico. The feeling amongst some employees was that talk of Hardy was taboo with her on Monday. Some employees were frustrated that she did not address the situation to the locker room.

A number of people within the company strongly feel that Hardy should be fired or at the very least give him the ultimatum that World Wrestling Entertainment officials gave him in 2003 (Hardy declined the request and was fired as a result). Many assume that WWE would cover the cost of Hardy's rehabilitation if he opts for it. WWE has an ongoing offer to cover the expenses of drug and
alcohol rehabilitation programs for current and former talent. However, it has not been indicated that TNA made the request as talks between both parties have been kept quiet.

I hope Hardy kicks the habit. The guy is a tremendous wrestler and is always loved by fans. I figured his heel run would end by now since he doesn't really get over as a heel, fans love him too much.

It'd also be nice if they did more with Super Eric Young and Jordan. Its hilarious.

Him and his brother have been going threw it for 10-15 Yrs. The last time i saw the other one he was sober but very jittery but an awesome guy. I never did drugs thank god, but i do have friends and other people i know. Damn shame a friend of mine at the age of 49 just got nailed for stealing over 250$ worth of food, he wonders why i do not hang with him anymore.

It's just devastating what drugs can do to a person , I had a nephew that was found dead with a needle sticking out of his arm , he was 41 years old ..
You can try to help all you want but unless they want help they will just self destruct , an alcoholic is the same way , they just don't want any help , the sad part is both (drugs and Alcohol) are self inflicted , they are not sicknesses as most people think ..
