Sean O'Haire Found Dead

“Sean O’Haire, a former mixed martial artist best known for his exploits in World Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment, died on Monday at his home in Spartanburg, S.C. He was 43 years old.

The news was confirmed by an obituary posted on Tributes.com. No cause of death has been revealed as of yet.

O’Haire trained at WCW’s renowned “Power Plant” and ultimately became a three-time WCW tag team champion. He went on to spend three years wrestling for WWE.

In addition to his wrestling career, O’Haire also took part in six MMA bouts, as well as four kickboxing fights.
