    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">WWE.com has learned that former WWE Superstar Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow has passed away in Florida.

    Kevin Doll, the Public Information Director for the Pasco County Sheriff's Office confirmed that Bigelow was found dead early this morning in his home in Hudson, Fla.

    "We can confirm that Scott Bigelow was found in his home this morning. At this time the cause of death is unknown," Doll told WWE.com.

    Doll also confirmed that the Pasco-Pinellas Counties medical examiner has taken the body and an autopsy will be performed.

    Bigelow, 45, worked for WWE, ECW and WCW extensively throughout his 20-year sports-entertainment career. A former ECW Champion, ECW Television Champion and WCW Tag Team Champion, he is perhaps best known for his rivalry with Lawrence Taylor that culminated in the main event of WrestleMania XI in 1995.

    Stay tuned to WWE.com as more on Bigelow's passing becomes available.</div>

    Bam Bam was never on steroids, they guy was natural and quite overweight. I remember when he faced LT at a PPV. That was stupid.

    RIP Bam Bam.

    Yeah it was one of their stupid guest appearance matches. I actually struggle to believe Bam Bam Bigelow vs. LT headlined Wrestlemania, hahaha.

    Yeah, Dennis "The Worm" Rodman & Hulk Hogan vs. Karl "The Mailman" Malone & Diamond Dallas Page at WCW "Bash At The Beach" 1998.

    He got fined for missing practice with the Bulls to Wrestle [​IMG]

    I did too, but you have to admit the aspect of it was stupid. Salt n' Pepper performing his entrance music on stage, etc. Surprisingly LT did fairly well in the match with limited experience from the training he had before the big night. Bam Bam still pulled him along though.

    I don't think its steroids, I mean he was fat, not ripped. But it probably is some kind of pain killer or something. RIP.
