It is being reported that Dave Sheldon, who played the character "The Angel of Death" was found dead this weekend by Norm Hitzges, a sports talk host who was said to be a friend of his. Sheldon, also teamed with Jack Victory as "The Russian Assassins" in WCW. At this time no cause of death has been released |
Probably not the most well known he had a brief stint in WCW feuded with Big Buba Rogers/Ray Traylor/whatever his gimmick was at the time in WCW. People will remember Bubba Rogers as Bossman in the 'E.

He was also in ECW around 2000 too

Not at all, there has only been one case of a wrestler doing something to his family and then committing suicide. Rick "Renegade" Williams took his own life in 1999 after his girlfriend left him and after WCW fired him....Kerry Von Erich was arrested for drugs and killed himself rather then sticking out jail...he had previously lost his foot in an accident.
There have been other Von Erich suicides seems that Fritz was the only one to die naturally. Former owner of FMW committed suicide when FMW finally closed it's doors. Mike Awesome had a fight with his wife or whatever and took his life.
But there has been a few deaths this year, Moolah dying from natural causes, didn't get much press.
