It is always unfortunate when a wrestler goes before his time, and today yet another has met his end at a young ago. It is being reported on numerous websites and former WWE star Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow was found dead this morning by his girlfriend in their home in Hudson, Florida.

No other information has yet to be realeased about the death of the 45-year old. The biggest two memories of Bigelow that I have were his outings in the first ever Survivor Series which I attended in Richfield, Ohio when he battled three guys and lost out to Andre the Giant at the end of the main event. The other would have to be the main event at WrestleMania 11 when he took on former All-Pro linebacker and Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor.

I will always remember Bigelow as one of those big men (he went about 350-360) that was able to move around with as much agility as a guy about 225. He adds on to a ever growing list of wrestlers that have gone at such a young age. Thoughts and prayers go out to his girlfriend and his family.
