The British Bulldog???

[Scotty the Body]

I was watching WWE for the first time in months last night and they said that Davie boy Smith (the british bulldog) had died a week ago.
They never said what happened to him, anyone know??
I grew up watching him and the rest of the Hart Gang.

He died of a heart attack at the age of 39.

Man that sucks They've had some bad luck in that family, wonder what Brett Hart is doing these days?

 

[seyone]

it sucks but it seems that alot of pro wrestlers die young.

 

[Scotty the Body]

Yeah, I'm sure he was a heavy juicer back in his prime, he was a big boy!

 

[realdeal]

they said it was due to Steroid abuse.

Bret is doing fine, and a lot of young Hart Family members are getting the eye from the WWE for future consideration such as Davey boys son (17yrs 6'4) he will be in the WWE in a few years.

They never really said why he died. I suspect a drug overdose because he was addicted to Morphine and was in the hospital due to a staph infection he had in his spine.

he died due to the use of pain killers. He had heart failure.
