Edward "Eddie" Fatu passes away...

This morning I heard the unfortunate news that Edward "Eddie" Fatu (Umaga) passed away in hospital. There are various reports on his death online but I don't see the point in posting or assuming anything.

On behalf of the WWE Street Team, I would like to extend my condolences to the Anoa'i family. I would also like to extend my condolences to the fans and friends of this fantastic performer. My love and prayers to all.

ps: For those interested, Wikipedia has an awesome family tree of the Anoa'i family. See for yourself how The Rock Dwayne Johnson, the late Yokozuna and Tonga Kid are related to Eddie. Some may be surprised to know that Tonga Kid and Rikishi are Eddie's older brothers. Click here for the article.
