23 Wrestlers Who Have Died In 2019

11. Silver King

Capitalising on the Lucha boom hitting WCW in the late 90s, Silver King worked extensively for the company between 1997-2000. Away from WCW, he was a success in his native Mexico with AAA and CMLL before sadly suffering a fatal heart attack during a match against Juventud Guerrera in London on 11 May 2019.

The bout, promoted by Lucha Libre World, was abandoned when King collapsed mid-ring.
