20 Years On From WWE In Your House: Canadian Stampede's Main Event: Where Are They Now?
10. Hawk
The Legion of Doom were only four months into an initially-celebrated WWE comeback, with much of the summer's red hot conflicts masking a growing disinterest from audiences towards the once-beloved act.
Though Hawk and Animal would win the Tag Team titles later that year to conclude an interminable feud with The Godwinns, the reign was punctuated by the unexpectedly exceptional New Age Outlaws, who stood against virtually every foundation The Road Warriors had built their act upon.
For Hawk, the opportunity to remain under the glare of wrestling's biggest spotlight only hastened his untimely 2003 demise. After acrimoniously exiting the company in 1992 for (amongst other things) drug-related reasons, his 1996 WCW reunion with Animal and 1997 WWE return only heightened his reliances and expedited his slip down the card.
Just over a year later, he was involved in an infamously distasteful suicide angle with Animal and the LOD's tagalong Droz, but the angle never got a grand payoff after the legendary team elected to seek their fortunes elsewhere in early 1999.
An overweight (but ostensibly clean) Hawk made his return to the company alongside Animal for a one-off title match against then-titleholders Rob Van Dam and Kane in May 2003, but just five months later, he was just another wrestling statistic, tragically dead at 43 from a sudden heart attack.
