I am unable to find good reports on this, but I do wonder if these guys were exposed to something to die like they did fairly young and hard.
 
Ted Turner was also the reason that he made wrestling interesting in the 90s. I don't think he himself was the fundamental failure of WCW, that was relegated to internal management itself (i.e Bischoff and all them). He wasn't afraid of Vince McMahon, even lighting a fire up under his ass to 'git gud' with his product (for better or worse). So, I think even without Ted Turner, Vince wouldn't have found his stride.
Without Ted Turner and WCW, it's highly likely the WWE would gone bankrupt in the 90s.
 
Pianist and accordion player Jo Anne Castle passed away on May 8th at the age of 86. She was a regular on "The Lawrence Welk Show," and it was Welk who dubbed her "The Queen of the Honky-Tonk Piano".

Hall of Fame MLB manager Bobby Cox has passed away at the age of 84. He led the Atlanta Braves to the 1995 World Series and sits fourth all-time in wins by a manager, and was named the Manager of the Year four times during his career. He also won the 1977 World Series with the New York Yankees as a coach.
Terrible week for my Braves.
