Rest in Peace Owen Hart

Owen Hart May 7, 1965-May 23, 1999

Okay some of you may being say huh? Well, I'm breaking form a little today.

In my conversations with several of the Blog-a-Maniacs out there, I know some of you have followed or still follow wrestling. With that in mind, today is the eight year anniversary of the death of Owen Hart, who tragically died in a rigging accident.

Hart left behind a wife, Martha, and two children.

Owen was heroic in his death, yelling down to several crew members in the ring to get out of the way and in the process saved their lives.

Those who watched on PPV were told that Owen had died, but those in attendance never got the news. The show went on even after Hart's accident, which is still one of the most controversial issues about the accident to this day.

I remember looking on a wrestling website for PPV results that day and seeing "the big box"on the homepage, which was only there when someone died. I realized it, but was stunned as the picture slowly loaded and it was Owen.

So all you wrestling fans out there, share your thoughts on Owen, on continuing the PPV, whatver you wish to.

I just thought we should all remember the "Little Nugget," "The Rocket," probably forget Hart in the New Foundation and in High Energy, but remember "Slammy Award Winning" Owen Hart.
