Brian Christopher Lawler, a former WWE star and son of legend Jerry "The King" Lawler," died Sunday, July 29 after reportedly attempting suicide in his jail cell.Damn 3 guys at once. Sucks for all of them, don't know their specific personal stories, but I was definitely sports entertained by Sexay during his run.
The wrestling world sustained two other blows on Sunday, as WWE Hall of Famer Nikolai Volkoff -- nee Josip Nikolai Peruzovic -- died at the age of 70, and Brickhouse Brown at the age 57 after a battle with cancer.

I don't think there's ever been a tag team that got more legit heat than Nikolai Volkoff and Iron Sheik in the 80s.
Don't know anything about the other dude though.

@theOnlyNewjack@newjackuncut187
f**k Brian Christopher,f**k Jerry Lawler and f**k every one of you fans who like those two c********rs...I don't give a f**k about none of you muthaf**kas
@theOnlyNewjack@newjackuncut187
Now I have pissed off some of you f**ks because I mentioned Jerry Lawler.I have been called a lot of names,but I have never been called a child molester Jerry Lawler
Whilst the wrestling world reacted to Brian Christopher's passing with sadness and kind comments, New Jack posted some very controversial comments. *Note: Some of the comments contain very strong and distasteful language.*
Instead of posting any memories or just keeping his opinion to himself, New Jack took to Facebook to give his thoughts on Brian, and they weren't complimentary. His comments are below:
"This might not set too well with some of y'all and I could get less than 2 f***s, but I wrestled in USWA with Brian Christoper in 92 and he was a very little disrespectful f**ker then, so f**k him and his daddy and for those of you who don't like my post…f**k you too!!!"
After giving his thoughts on Christopher, New Jack then took to Twitter to attack his father, Jerry Lawler, telling him that now his son has died, he should join him. He has since deleted the Tweet but it read:
"Jerry Lawler, now that your son is dead, why don't you go join him you sorry f***!"
New Jack's comments were obviously met by huge shock and disgust by fans on social media and he then posted in response to the backlash his original posts.
He gave his thoughts about the situation, claiming he doesn't care about people moaning about his thoughts.

I watched a ton of Too Cool videos last night. The Hardys and them were my top two tag teams as a kid.

Back when fans didnt care about social media for spoilers and just watched for fun. Good times.
