The Hurricane: “RIP Chris Kanyon. He was a good guy that helped a LOT of people in this biz. He struggled with a lot of problems though. It’s a sad day. When Kanyon “came out” he texts me with “I’m gay, that bother you?” My reply, “I’m not, does that bother YOU?” We laughed & stayed friends. He was unique that’s for sure, we’d just texted a lil bit last week and he spoke again of his ups and downs with depression. That is a tough struggle!! But at least his struggles are over. He was a nutcase, good and bad, but I’ll miss him nonetheless. RIP my friend. After being released fr WWE, Kanyon went to Vince & asked if Vince would do the “You’re Fiiiiired” thing. Lol I believe at the Mania party.”
