notJames 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 Just to touch on how Hawk could have died, any time you put stress on the body, you reduce the longevity of it. Both steroid and narcotic drug abuse, though not a direct cause, probably had a fair hand in paving the road toward his early death. Regardless, RIP. One more legend in the book.

Zetterberg is God 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 Don't know if this was psoted yet: A few more notes on the death of Mike Hegstrand, Road Warrior Hawk, at the age of 46. He was packing up boxes as he was scheduled to move into a new house in Tampa, where he had been living for years, with his wife Dale. He said he wasn't feeling well at about 8:30 p.m. and said he wanted to take a nap and told his wife to awaken him at 1:30 a.m. so he could continue packing. When she went to check on him, he was dead. We haven't heard any preliminary diagnosis as to what happened him. We're looking for any news reports today on his death as I'm presuming in the Minneapolis and Tampa area a lot should be coming out. credit: wrestlingobserver.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
