Darren 'Droz' Drozdov Passes Away At The Age Of 54

Darren Drozdov has passed away at the age of 54.
Fightful is sad to report that Darren Drozdov, known to wrestling fans as Droz, has passed away.
Droz signed with WWE in the late 90s and was famously part of the "Beyond The Mat" documentary where he met with Vince McMahon and was dubbed "Puke" as he had the ability to vomit on demand.
Droz was paired with The Legion Of Doom (Hawk & Animal) and Prince Albert (Matt Bloom) during his WWE career.
His career was tragically cut short in October 1999 when he fractured two vertebrae in his neck after slipping during a spot against D'Lo Brown. Droz would never walk again. He remained with WWE after the accident, working as a writer and columnist. He would make appearances on DVD documentaries and Dark Side of the Ring.
WWE ran a graphic remembering Droz to open the June 30 episode of WWE SmackDown.

That sucks. He had a tough break with getting injured, but still seemed to keep a positive attitude afterwards.

That's about the age of life expectancy for the average wrestler.

Huh? How did they do that when it doesn’t air for another 3 hours?

Ahh. But still weird to phrase it like that.

That's 108 in non-wrestler years.

And Flair outlives another one.

He had an aunt that was a chiropractor in Baton Rouge. I believe she passed recently as well.

He never held a grudge against D-Lo Brown, who was by all accounts one of the better guys in the industry. RIP to the Pukester.
