Professional wrestler Kurtis Chapman, known for his eccentric comedic style in the ring, has tragically passed away at the age of 26, according to an announcement made by Revolution Pro Wrestling on Friday. The wrestling promotion expressed their profound sadness, describing Chapman as a dear friend who had shown remarkable growth and talent throughout his life.

Revolution Pro Wrestling shared a heartfelt statement, paying tribute to Chapman's journey from a young wrestling enthusiast to a skilled and charismatic performer. They hailed him as one of the most gifted technical wrestlers, possessing magnetic personality traits that endeared him to fans. The wrestling promotion assured that Chapman's legacy would never be forgotten.

No details regarding the cause of Chapman's death were provided in Revolution's statement. However, the news sent shockwaves through the wrestling community, leaving fellow wrestler Suge De La Geto devastated. In a poignant statement, De La Geto acknowledged Chapman's unique sense of humor, noting that it could simultaneously evoke both love and frustration. He described the late wrestler as a perpetual child who was always seeking reactions and laughs, expressing disbelief that Chapman was no longer with them.

While professional wrestling may not enjoy the same level of devotion in the United Kingdom as it does in the United States, it undoubtedly has its share of dedicated fans across the pond. The recent "All In London" event held at Wembley Stadium, a venue steeped in soccer history, attracted a packed crowd of passionate wrestling enthusiasts on August 27.

The wrestling community mourns the untimely loss of Kurtis Chapman and remembers him fondly for his unique contributions to the sport. As his fans and colleagues grieve his passing, they pay tribute to a young talent who left an indelible mark on the world of professional wrestling.
