Chris Candito (aka Chris Candido) passed away earlier today at the age of 33.
Details of his death are still sketchy right now. There are conflicting reports about the cause of death, and police in Matawan, New Jersey, where he lives, were not able to confirm his death.
Candito suffered a bad leg injury at the TNA Lockdown pay-per view this past Sunday, and underwent surgery for the injury on Monday. He then appeared at the TNA Impact! tapings as a manager on Tuesday night before returning home.
Candido was a big part of the Impact! show that will air tomorrow on FOX Sports, interfering and leading to The Naturals winning the NWA tag-team titles over America's Most Wanted.
Chris also worked for the WWF, WCW and ECW.
It's a dam shame when something like this happens to a guy who was just getting his life back on track.
We'll miss you Chris
