From Osaka Holiday Paradise: osaka.puroresufan.com/Michinoku Pro, FMW, Osaka Pro, and maybe some more ref Ted Tanabe passed away in last night, after collapsing in the ring similar to Misawa just a day after the same thing happened. |

Actually, everything I've seen about this so far says he collapsed backstage after the show. Apparently he had a history of heart problems. Man this whole last 10 days have been nuts in the world of pro wrestling.  |

Man, not a good couple of days for pro wrestling in Japan. Well, pro wrestling in general, actually.
May he rest in peace.

What a sad and unfortunate couple of days for Japanese wrestling it has been so far as well as for all of professional wrestling. My condolences to his family and friends. I may not know him that well, but still tragic any way you look at it.

These past two weeks have f***ing sucked. Not just this, but also Arisa Nakajima left wrestling due to massive depression and Sachiko got injured just as she was getting a big push. I mean neither of those amount people actually dying, but they still helped in making this the worst 2 weeks of being a wrestling fan since Sherri dying and the whole Benoit incident happening within two weeks of each other.

Seriously?
Damn, Ted Tanabe was probably my favorite ref in Japan.

That little guy was the ref for what seems like every MPro match I have ever seen... Again, this is very sad news.  My best wishes and prayers go out to the family and friends. Rest in peace, ref... |
