Former Impact Wrestling valet and Knockout Rocksan 'BellaDonna' Biggerstaff, died on 21 January at the age of 40. She had been on life support prior to her passing, after being discovered unresponsive by EMTs several days earlier.

Biggerstaff first made a name for herself in wrestling as part of TNA's Disciples of the New Church faction back in 2002, in which she functioned as a valet. On 4 December 2002, she wrestled her one and only match for the company, losing to America's Most Wanted in a handicap Bull Rope contest.

Stablemate Wolfie D - known in the group as Slash - shared the sad news via his Facebook page. “I loved what she added to the group… she played her character well," remembered her colleague. “Outside of the ring, she was a sweetheart."

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
