Some more news.

- As previously reported, Mike Awesome was scheduled to go out with friends on 2/17. Friends arrived at his home, but no one answered. One of Awesome's friends found Awesome hanging through a window. By the time police arrived, Awesome had already passed away.

- It doesn't appear he left behind a suicide note.

- Apparently Awesome had been in poor health in recent months, and had dropped to 235 lbs.

- At the time of his passing, Awesome was going through a divorce.

- For those that have asked, here is Awesome's relationship to Hulk Hogan. Awesome's father's sister (or his aunt) married Hulk Hogan's oldest brother. The couple's oldest son is Mike Bollea (Horace Hogan)."

He must have been in pretty poor health to be 235lbs. I'm the same height as him (6ft 7in) and I'm pretty big boned and was never able to drop below 265 when in good shape.
