Jerry “The Wall” Tuite Found Dead

Mick Foley · 12-07-2003, 06:16 PM

Jerry Tuite, also known as The Wall while in WCW, Malice for NWA TNA, and currently Gigantes for All Japan Pro Wrestling was found dead earlier this morning after working the final show of a tour for All Japan.

Media outlets in Japan reported that Tuite was found unconscious in his hotel room by La Parka and Nosawa. Apparently the two were returning from a meal and wanted to tell Tuite goodbye before heading to the Narita Airport to return to Mexico. Upon finding him, they rushed him to the hospital, but attempts were unsuccessful and the cause of death was said to be “an acute heart attack.”

Tuite (36 years old) wrestled his last match Friday December 5th at All Japan’s PPV from Budokan Hal in Tokyo in a six man tag, teaming with Bull Buchanan and Justin Credible to defeat Nobutaka Araya, Tomoaki Honma and Kazushi Miyamoto.

On behalf of us all here at RajahWWF.com, I would like to extend our deepest condolences out to the friends and family of Jerry Tuite. He will be missed.
