We will have more shortly. www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.php?id=39367&p=1

One of my things to do before he retired was to go to Japan to see him wrestle.  |

Went to SSS and saw this.
------------------------
Misawa got cardiopulmonary arrest. He got backdrop and wasn't able to move. Match was stoped.
-------
So it was basically a heart attack. I can't f***ing believe this.

Almost certainly one of the top 10 wrestlers of all time dies taking a suplex. An absolute shock for the entire wrestling world, and proof that you have to take absolute care with any move, even a simple suplex.
At least you could say that Misawa died doing the one thing he loved, which makes it a slightly more acceptable death than the majority of the North American deaths. Still, it doesn't mean it's not saddening.

Talk about shocking and sad news.
He leaves a great legacy and his contributions to wrestling will live on. May he rest in peace.
