Last year after a GCW show in Los Angeles in March 2019, I got to see one of Cryme Tyme's last matches as a tag team at Suburban Fight Pro when they took on Jimmy Lloyd and Tony Deppen in a tornado bar fight (all Suburban Fight Pro matches are basically bar fights.)
Before the pandemic cancelled things, I also had a ticket to see Cryme Tyme at GCW's For the Culture show during Mania Weekend in Tampa Bay.
When Brian Kendrick was not able to make it to take on Willie Mack on my friend Alan's first ever QPW show back in 2013 that I attended in California, Shad Gaspard stepped in as the replacement.
Shad died a hero successfully saving his son from drowning.
RIP.

Ugh on Shad. That's a bad way to go. Prayers for his son. While Cryme Tyme was a comedic tag team, I really liked Shad's big-man look and thought he should've got a singles push. Man, this one stings!

"I don't want to be a human anymore."

This is bullshit.

God that sucks. I'm not familiar with her but saw somethings on her on Twitter and it seemed people went to check on her. Thought she'd be ok.
