BRITISH wrestler Lionheart has died at the age of 36 – hours after posting a haunting message online.
The world heavyweight champion wrote “one day you will eat your last meal, you will hug your friend for the last time”.
His message – a direct quote from Ricky Gervais’ hit Netflix comedy After Life – was posted on Twitter this morning.
He wrote: “One day you will eat your last meal, you will smell your last flower, you will hug your friend for the last time.
“You might not know it’s the last time, that’s why you must do everything you love with passion.”
The famous line was said by Gervais’ character, Tony Johnson, who is mourning the death of his wife.
Insane Championship Wrestling (ICW) announced the tragic news on their official page tonight.
He was the wrestling firm’s current world heavyweight champion.
Lionheart – real name Adrian McCallum – had been a top wrestler for the last 10 years.
He appeared on a host of popular shows including WWE and TNA and was one of the UK’s best known wrestlers.
The ICW said: “We are heartbroken to learn of the tragic death of ICW World Heavyweight Champion, Adrian ‘Lionheart’ McCallum.
“Adrian was a mainstay of ICW and British professional wrestling. Most importantly, he was our friend.
“His passing leaves a huge hole in the lives of those who knew him. Please respect his family’s privacy at this time.”
