It's an often used line, sadly but he really was one of the best big men in the business. His career was cut short because of his inability to play the political game and making a few very bad decisions. It is a true shame that his suicide leaves young children fatherless.

Admittedly I didn't read any further into his passing than what I saw on WWE.com but I've gotta say that I'm quite saddened to hear that it was suicide.
Poor guy and I feel for his family too!!
I was hoping to see him at One Night Stand again this year.
Sadly it is not to be 
His match with Masato Tanaka { Spelling } from the first one is one of my fave matches.

Bam Bam's autopsy report is back and it appears that his was a suicide too. He was found to have lethal doses of two different drugs in his system.

And now "Bad News" Allen (or Brown in his WWF days) has passed at the age of 63. An apparent heart attack. At least he managed to live a reasonable number of years compared to the other guys we've talking about lately.
