Adrian "Lionheart" McCallum has died. Best known for his run with ICW out of Scotland where he was a multi-time and current champion. He suffered a broken neck after taking the Styles Clash incorrectly back in 2014, but came back to the ring a year later. He was 36 years old.

I hadn't heard of him, but he looked to have a promising future! 36 is too young! 😢😥😫

I hadn't heard of him, but he looked to have a promising future! 36 is too young! 😢😥😫 Without a doubt. He had accomplished quite a bit in the UK and was one of the names that helped build ICW. In addition to being a 2-time Zero-G Champ, he held their World title at the time of his passing. While he was sidelined with his injury, he still played a pretty big role in ICW. He also wrestled Nigel McGuinnes for the ROH World title back in '08. Might not have had quite the name recognition of a lot the other current UK crop of stars, but definitely well-respected in the community and certainly well known in the UK.

SHARE TWEET SHARE EMAIL COMMENTS JACQUES ROUGEAU SR. PASSED AWAY YESTERDAY, FOLLOWING A BATTLE WITH PULMONARY FIBROSIS. He was 89 years old. Rougeau was best known for wrestling in the Quebec area during the Sixties and Seventies, often tagging with his late brother Johnny and feuding with the likes of The Sheik, Alexis Smirnoff and Abdullah The Butcher. He retired in 1984 a five time IWA International Heavyweight champion and a one time NWF Heavyweight champion. However he did get physically involved in his sons’ red hot feud with the Garvins in the Montreal territory in 1985. Jacques Rougeau Sr, father of Raymond, Jacques, and Armand Rougeau and brother of the late Johnny Rougeau, died yesterday, July 1st, at the age of 89. He was suffering from pulmonary fibrosis. Jacques had started wrestling in 1955 but quit after less than a year since it was not paying enough. He returned when his brother Johnny opened a wrestling office in Montreal called All-Star Wrestling and wrestled for the next decade. Aside from Montreal and the province of Quebec, he also wrestled for the NWF in Buffalo and for New Japan Pro Wrestling. Although he had retired in 1984, he was also involved in the feud between the Garvins and the Rougeaus in Montreal in 1985, which was the hottest of its time. He also wrestled once in 1999 for his son Jacques’ promotion in Montreal, teaming with Jacques and Raymond. His daughter Joanne was also involved in pro wrestling as she was the local promoter for the WWF in the province of Quebec in the second half of the 1990s.
