IdeaOfEvil Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 There are conflicting reports about Christopher atm. 5 hours ago, Meltzer reported he died on his Twitter page. But then around the same time, Eric Simms is said that BC is currently on life support after attempting suicide, and no one has said anything since.

A mix of a column writer like Meltzer (although nowhere near as well known) and a promoter of some sort. But it looks like Brian's brother Kevin just confirmed on Twitter that Christopher died about an hour ago =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaysWho? Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 My favorite time with Brian Christopher was Too Cool, but partly because Jerry Lawler was a heel commentator but always had that sympathy for Brian, despite his being a face (given with a wink). During the Royal Rumble 2000, Brian Christopher was number 1, and Jerry Lawler's like, "WHAT?! I thought he'd be luckier than this!" and then the camera went to Jerry and he has this surprised/worried look on his face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawn_of_Apathy Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Is it attempted suicide when it is successful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was attempted suicide when he was rushed to the hospital and before the official death. A bit confusing just due to the changing headlines today.

Spork3245 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Uhh... Holy shit. His father (Jerry "the King" Lawler") seems to think that this isn't the result of a suicide attempt, but rather murder. Quote “We’ve received literally countless calls, text messages from people, actual eyewitnesses, that were in the jail and saw things that happened on the actual day that Brian died that now has opened up a new can of worms,” Jerry said. “It just doesn’t seem like it was suicide.” It is reported that Brian was relocated to a segregated cell after engaging in a fight with fellow inmates. He was in the Hardeman County Jail after a DUI arrest in July. “Just look at his neck and look at his hand,” Jerry said. “You can see the lines on his neck all the way around here to here and what would be the length of your hand as if he was trying to keep the pressure off.” It was also reported that almost 20 camera inside of the jail were offline and Jerry promises to not give up on this issue until more details are known. 2 http://www.mandatory.com/wrestlezone/news/985919-jerry-lawler-releases-photos-raising-doubt-around-official-report-regarding-his-son-brian-christophers-passing http://www.mandatory.com/wrestlezone/news/985763-jerry-lawler-shares-gut-wrenching-details-about-son-brian-christophers-passing-doubts-official-story#/slide/1 Lawler released pics but the wbtv website (of which he gave the pics and interview(s) to) seems to be down at the moment.
