Wrestler Umaga Passes Away  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe 3 years ago

i just saw on MSN that the WWE wrestler Umaga passed away today from a heart attack..

Eddie Fatu, the professional wrestler known as "Umaga", has died at the age of the 36, according to a report on World Wrestling Entertainment's Web site.

Fatu died of a heart attack at a Houston-area hospital, according to WrestlingObserver.com.
His most notable moment in pro wrestling was his involvement in WWE's Wrestlemania XXIII in 2007. He lost a match that resulted in Donald Trump shaving WWE owner's Vince McMahon's head.

Fatu's contract with WWE was terminated on June 11 after he refused to go to rehab after his second violation of the WWE's Wellness Program

Oh man, that's too bad. My kids were just saying something about him the other day because they noted he hadn't been on WWE for a while. I told them that he was related to The Rock and they shook their heads and said, "But he's fat and The Rock is solid muscle." I told them that he was Samoan and that's how they roll. Thanks for the news.

That is too funny they said that. As far as I know I think he was released from the WWE because of drugs...I know that he was just in Australia with Hogan for their TNA tour and just got home a few days ago.. Thanks for your response gitfiddleplayer.

Hi,
friend that's really a shocking news to hear about him. He was a good wrestler at all the times and i like to watch matches of him very much. I think he doesn't fear to any wrestler in his history. He is fat but not more like bigshow. May his soul rest in heaven and umaga rocks forever.
Thanks for sharing this news.
Happy mylotting.
Have a nice day.


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

He was a good wrestler and they played him in a character to where he was fearless and able to just come out and pin his opponent so quickly..he will be missed and my thoughts are with his family. Thanks you for your response cogno

I have never been a wrestling fan but very sorry to hear of this.


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

my family doesn't watch it as much as we might of once have but we still liked watching Umaga, i guess they are thinking that it might now be caused from blood clots from flying the 14 hours from here to Australia...it is a shame. Thanks for your response antiquelady

Aww... man i really like to watch in WWE... That's just too sad :/ Hope there will be a tribute for him


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

I know that he is not in WWE any longer but I think they might still do a tribute..it will probably be on this mondays show and there might be one on TNA as well since that was who is was currently working for, Thanks for your response Jas

I was completely shocked by the news when I was browsing the official website of WWE last night. Exactly on the first page, the headline let's say, the news was about the late Umaga. I didn't even notice that he had been released from WWE, as the website mentioned him as 'former WWE superstar'. Back to 2006, when Umaga firstly ever appeared on the ring, it was blast. Along with the time when he successfully captured intercontinental championship for twice. I couldn't believe that he ended up already. However, I didn't read furthermore about the cause of his passes.


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

I was shocked too..I don't much follow wrestling much anymore but my husband does and he is the actual one who told me about Umaga. I haven't read much on it either I just hear things from my husband...I know he was headed to TNA and probably would of continued to be a good wrestler. Thanks for your response charlies


myLot reputation of 83/100. charlies2805 (639)   ranked 45 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

You are very welcome there... Ow, I have heard nothing about the late Umaga's idea to head to TNA. Just like I wrote, I thought he was still in the WWE. I read the news only on the official website of WWE, not from anywhere else.

I was surprised too. I read it while browsing the Yahoo website. I am never really a fan of Umaga but I heard he was on drugs and it really saddens me that most wrestlers succumb to this kind of lifestyle. I am supporting WWE's wellness program because it is really for the good of their wrestlers and I don't really want to hear again that another wrestler died at a young age because of drugs or steroids.


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

i agree that it is such a shame that so many wrestlers resort to drugs but I guess when your body is being put through that night after night you have to take something to get through not that I praise drug use in any way but I could just see why pain killers may be needed.

yup! read the story in msn as well as in wwe. really sad news. i grieve for the family and friends that eddie fatu left. as umaga, i've always liked him eventhough he was a heel. umaga was very athletic for a big guy. really surprised about the bit about him being released by the wwe because of violating wwe's wellness program. i think he and bobby lashley were frontrunners for being the next wwe superstars but it didn't pan out right.

prayers go out to umaga and the family and friends that he left behind.

cheers!!!


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

I was surprised to hear it as well but you know to go through what these wrestlers do every night town after town I am sure a lot of them need something to ease the pain, I just wish there was something more healthier for them. I really liked Bobby lashley and was sad to see him go but I think he is wrestling again, it might even be with TNA too but I can't be sure. My thoughts go out ot his family as well and what a shame fo rhis wife to have to find him that way. Thanks for your response allen

I'm actually not a fan of professional wrestling, but that doesn't mean that I am not familiar with it, my brother and sister were both avid viewers of WWE and I did actually attend a life event that they had in our town a few years ago as a gift to my little sister. It is sad to hear when anyone that young dies from a heart attack because it means that they were probably abusing their body in some way. It could have been brought on by drugs or it could have been related to genetics in some way, but either way it is really sad news to hear.


myLot reputation of 98/100. froggieslover (1734)   ranked 253 out of 414 in wwe  3 years ago

I am not a big fan wither but my husband watches it although he seems to watch TNA wrestling more than WWE only because it has chenged from what it used to be and has changed to more of the entertainment like the title represents, it is still a shame like you say to see any of these guys lose their lives especially at such a young age...any one for that matter.
