Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow, the tattooed heavyweight professional TV wrestler, has died. He was 45.
He was found dead in his home on Friday, his brother Todd Bigelow said Monday.
Preliminary autopsy results did not show signs of foul play, but a cause of death will not be known until toxicology tests are completed in a few weeks, Pasco County sheriff's spokesman Doug Tobin said.
Bigelow had been struggling with a persistent infection and diabetes, his brother said.
Bigelow wrestled with Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant during his two decades as a sports entertainer. Bigelow's flame-tattooed scalp and 6-foot-2, 400-pound frame made him recognizable in and out of the ring. He retired in 2004.
A service is planned for Friday in his hometown of Neptune, N.J.

Very large men don't live very long.
Very large men who put constant pressure on their joints, abuse their bodies with various amounts of prescription painkillers, spend time away from their families and inflict pain on their joints and muscles 300 days a year..all for the love of the game.
Bigelow had his demons, but he knew how to perform. RIP.

Their doing another autopsy today with a toxolagist. Its safe to assume he OD'd on something. No foul play was evident. He was a great performer. Very agile for a 350lb plus body weight. I still remember one wrestlemania when he scrapped Lawrence Taylor.

He was a bounty hunter for a few years before wrestling found him. Man can you imagine some bad guy having to get away from that monster! Dog's got nothing on Bam Bam. RIP
