Chase Tatum, a former WCW (World Championship Wrestling) wrestler was found dead in his home after suffering an apparent accidental drug overdose. Chase Tatum 34 years old was found dead on Sunday in his home in Atlanta.
Chase Tatum used to wrestle for the now-defunct WCW. More recently, he appeared in the comedy “Who’s Your Caddy?” alongside rapper Big Boi of Outkast.
Chase Tatum had been recovering from back surgery to repair a degenerative disc. His father said the former wrestler had been fighting a dependence to painkillers for years but had been planning to enter a rehabilitation center.
An official said, “He was in the process of getting his life back together. He was confident he was going to turn things around, to live a normal life again without those painkillers”.
Chase Tatum's wrestling career was unplanned & short-lived. His brief wrestling career left him with severe back problems but without health insurance to pay for the surgery. It was painkillers that kept him going.
