One of the first openly gay professional wrestlers in the WWE was found dead in his Sunnyside apartment Friday night, surrounded by pills and several notes. Officially retired since 2004, 40-year-old Chris Klucsaritis (aka Chris Kanyon) debuted in the sport in the late nineties, as part of the construction worker-themed tag team “Men at Work.” The Daily News reports that officials are calling his death—from an overdose of various medications—an apparent suicide. more ›

Jim "The Sandman" Fullington, arrested for assault and other offenses when he acted out during a party for Captain Lou Albano, was denied bail yesterday, leaving him locked up in a Westchester County jail for three straight nights. The Journal News spoke to Albano's son Louis who explained the party was for his dad's new autobiography, "One thing led to another, and things got out of hand. That's the way wrestlers are." The Post suggests that Fullington et al. may file a complaint against the restaurant owner, who allegedly got in Fullington's face, prompting the pro-wrestler to go crazy. Captain Lou Albano's niece and manager Kari said she tried to get the staff to stop serving the Sandman, "The fight was both their faults, and [the owner] should have been arrested, too." Fullington will attempt to make bail again today. more ›
