CHRIS CANDIDO
1972 – 2005

TNA Wrestling joins the entire wrestling world in mourning the untimely death of Chris Candido on Thursday night.

TNA is deeply devastated by the loss of Chris, who touched the lives of millions of fans around the world during his successful career.

We hope everyone will keep Candido’s friends and family in their thoughts and prayers as we say goodbye to a friend

Early Friday morning, Chris Candido's brother Johnny posted the following message to fans on the USAProwrestling.net website:

"I find it only fitting you hear the truth from me about the death of my bestfriend, brother, and soulmate. Chris died tonight due to a blood clot brought on by complications with his surgery.

I just want to tell everyone that in their sorrow, find a way to be happy that he went out the way he wanted to...on top of the world, blonde, tan, and loving life up until the last minute. Every ounce of my brother loved this sport, and for him to go out 2 or 3 years ago wouldn't have been a fitting end to the life of such a determined, passionate, and benevolent human being.

I truly view my brother as an angel as will all who knew him. Thanks to everyone for all your positive press, Chris went out a happy man and will forever live on as the(one of) greatest of all time. He would have had it no other way."

The only time i have seen Chris Candido wrestle was when he was 'Skip' in the Body Donnas in WWF cause i don't watch much TNA. But this is a complete shock to me and i'm sure everyone else. Just recently at Lockdown he broke his leg and then underwent successful surgery and everyone thought he was going to make a good recovery and now due to a blood clot, he has unfortunately passed away. It's very upseting and sad to see someone who has had a lengthy wrestling career die at such a young age..only 33!!!

R.I.P. Chris Candido....You are in our thoughts!

I knew who Chris Canido was from watching TNA Impact. Unfortunately, I wasn't watching wrestling at the time he was in the WWF. I didn't know very much about him, but the conclusion I've drawn from all I've seen myself and heard from others was that he truly loved the wrestling business and put everything he had into it. He made a definite impact while he was part of it.

It's always tragic to lose someone who cares so passionately about something that you yourself love, regardless if you knew that person, because whether you knew it or not, you shared a common bond with them. That's how I've felt many times before and that's how I feel now. May Chris Canido rest in peace.

I feel bad for Chris and his family, but personally, I didn't care for him as a wrestler.
