Former WCW star Scotty Riggs wrote on his Twitter account oday that former WWE and WCW star Sean O'Haire has died.

Riggs wrote:"Just got a message that former wrestler Sean O' Haire has died. [HASHTAG]#RIPSeanOHaire[/HASHTAG]" An obituary for O'Haire can be found at this link. He passed away at his Spartanburg, South Carolina home on Monday. He was 43. A Celebration of Life visitation will be held from 1:00-3:00pm on Saturday, September 13th at his home at 510 Hampton Drive, Spartanburg, SC 29306.

He was employed by WWE for a short time back in the day, and according to Lance Storm, officials were actually pretty high on him before his habit of getting into bar fights and being a general shit stirrer outside of the arena got him canned. Could have been bigger, but oh well. RIP.

Shocking news. I never heard of him having any issues, but I can't see how this isn't drug related. Unless he had some sort of underlining problem?Makes me sad to think that a lot of wrestlers won't make it to long lives that we've come to love, due to drug and steroid abuse.

I mean, can we honestly expect Kurt Angle or Batista to live very long lives? And if so, with how much quality?

Another thing, I have no idea how Billy Graham is still alive.

Billy Graham can barely walk, he has Hep C and he's been in his death bed since 1994. O'Haire had cocaine problems I think but that just may be my imagination making stuff up.

An ex-pro wrestler dying at his home at the age of 43.... he could have had some type of medical condition, but given the history of wrestlers dropping dead from drug or steroid abuse, then it's pretty easy to postulate what the cause of death here probably is.

As for fearing for Kurt Angle or Batista's life, not everyone dies from steroid/drug abuse, and it helps to remember that there's a difference between drug/steroid use and drug/steroid abuse. There's nothing that says they ever consumed enough drugs to kill them (although Angle probably has) but they've both already out-lived Eddie Guerrero, Brian Pillman, Curt Henning and Rick Rude if it means anything.

HHH no doubt used steroids back in the day, too... how ironic and almost amusing in a morbid way that would be, if the guy who's preparing to take over McMahon's throne suddenly died from steroids lol...

McMahon himself used steroids.

True.

I don't really think HHH has any chance of dying of steroids, for the record, just saying it'd be funny in a way considering his importance to the future of the company. McMahon having a heart attack from past steroid use at this point wouldn't really matter since the man is almost 70 years old anyway and is already the same age as his pop was when he passed away.

Such a shock to read this when I woke this morning and at such a young age as well it truly is a shame. I remember when he was hired by the WWE but I also heard the same that about his problems away from the ring.

RIP.

As PWMania.com reported, former WWE and WCW star Sean O’Haire was found dead Tuesday at his home in South Carolina.

TMZ has published a story noting that the coroner in Spartanburg, SC told them that his death is unknown, however no foul play is suspected.

They are awaiting toxicology reports that might shed light on things.

The following is TMZ’s report:

Former WCW and WWE wrestler Sean O’Haire was found dead Tuesday at his home in South Carolina … TMZ has learned.

The coroner in Spartanburg, SC tells TMZ a cause of death is unknown at this time, but no foul play is suspected. They are awaiting toxicology reports that might shed light on things.

O’Haire (whose real name was just Sean Haire) made his debut with the WCW in 2000 and along with partner Chuck Palumbo, was the final WCW tag team champions when the organization folded.

Once in the WWE, he was Rowdy Roddy Piper’s protege, but when Piper left in 2003 … O’Haire fizzled out and eventually left the WWE in 2004.

He eventually transitioned into kickboxing and MMA before becoming a hair stylist.
