TAMPA, Fla. ? Former pro wrestling champion Brian "Crush" Adams died Monday after he was found unconscious in his home. He was 44.
He showed no visible signs of injury and foul play was not suspected, police spokeswoman Janelle McGregor said. Authorities were awaiting autopsy
results from the medical examiner before proceeding with their investigation.
Adams' wife, who was not identified, found her husband not breathing and called 911 about 11 a.m. Fire Rescue workers later pronounced him dead,
McGregor said.
Adams, a former world tag team champion, last performed for the World Wrestling Federation in 2001 and served intermittently on the roster beginning
in 1990, World Wrestling Entertainment said. WWE spokesman George Cabico had no further comment.
Adams death comes less than two months after pro wrestler Chris Benoit killed his wife and son before hanging himself on the cable of a weight machine
in his Georgia home. Prescription anabolic steroids were found in the family's home, raising questions about whether the drugs played a role in the
killings.XHonusWagnerX - 8-15-2007 at 07:51 AM

He may have been the third dude in. Not sure. Wasn't he going to be Demon in WCW that dressed up like Gene Simmons?Muttley - 8-15-2007 at 11:57 AM
He was the Demon in the debut but never actually wrestled, Dale Torborg took over the gimmick.
Never liked Brian Adams, he was always one of the NWO nutswingers that ruined the whole gimmick.Discipline - 8-15-2007 at 01:50 PM

Yeah, he was Crush, the third guy in Demolition. Then he became Kona Crush, Crush in the Nation of Domination, then Crush in the Disciples of
Apocalypse, then he was just Bryan Adams in the NWO in WCW. Then he hooked up with Brian Clark and they became the tag team known as Kronik.
