The professional wrestler Brian Adams, best known as Crush in the tag team Demolition, has died at the age of 43, the WWE reported on its web site. The WWE says "details are unknown" about how Adams died.

This comes at the worst possible time for WWE head Vince McMahon and the pro wrestling industry, which is under increased scrutiny as a result of the Chris Benoit murder-suicide. There will no doubt be questions about whether steroids played any role in Adams' death. According to Adams' IMDB page, he was arrested on drug and weapons offenses in 1994 for carrying steroids and a stun gun. He was later acquitted of the drug charges.

Under the comments section:

Eulogy for Brian Adams: In addition to being a renowned wrestler, he got his first real six-string at the five and dime. He played it til his fingers bled in, was the summer of '69 I believe.
He had a band and tried real hard, but Jimmy quit and Jody got married. Then he took up professional wrestling in the guise of an overweight fan from the Oakland Raiders "Black Hole."
