WWE Removes Jimmy Snuka From Hall Of Fame?

WWE cancel legends contract and remove him from Hall Of Fame section of WWE.com.

By John Canton /

WWE released the following statement about Hall of Famer "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, who was charged with third degree murder on Tuesday following a new investigation into the death of his girlfriend in 1983;
"Jimmy Snuka€™s non-wrestling €˜legends€™ contract has been suspended and we are currently removing his images from our media platforms pending the outcome of this case."
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the 72-year-old Snuka turned himself in to authorities on Monday after receiving word of his indictment and was arraigned in Lehigh County. He was sent to county jail where he was being held on $100,000 bond. Snuka posted 10% of that figure as his bail and was released later that day. There were reports that police went to arrest him, but he did turn himself in. Snuka's apparently in really bad shape because he had surgery for stomach cancer last month. He was in a wheelchair and hooked up to a feeding tube when he surrendered to authorities.WWE has also removed anything related to Snuka on their website. If you go to their WWE.com page where they list Hall of Famers, he's no longer there. He used to be after Jimmy Hart and before Johnny Rodz, but he's gone now. If you search "Snuka" on WWE.com then the only info you will find is related to his daughter Tamina, who is a current WWE diva. WWE used to mention Jimmy all the time by saying Tamina is his daughter, but that won't happen anymore.
