Kocosports.com has the regrettable task of reporting that Scott Charles Bigelow, known to wrestling fans worldwide as Bam Bam Bigelow has passed away.
Sources close to Bigelow have informed us that the former WWE/ECW/WCW superstar had been missing for several days, and was found dead this morning in a home in Pasco County, Florida.
We are told that Police are currently treating this as a crime scene. Despite several attempts by Kocosports.com to contact them, The Pasco County Sheriff’s dept. was unavailable for comment as of 12:50PM today.
Bigelow was trained as a wrestler at Larry Sharpe's "Monster Factory" in Mount Laurel, New Jersey. He debuted in Memphis in 1985. In 1997 Bigelow began a one year stint in the World Wrestling Federation, but was sidelined due to injuries. He moved on to work for Antonio Inoki in New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he formed a tag team with Big Van Vader, and won the IWGP Tag Team Championships.
In late 1992 Bigelow returned to the WWF and engaged in a highly-publicized feud with American football player Lawrence Taylor. The two went on to headline WrestleMania.
During a run in ECW, in 1997, he joined the reformed The Triple Threat with Chris Candido and leader, Shane Douglas. He was a dominant force in ECW, carrying out feats of strength such as hurling Spike Dudley out of the ring and into the audience and slamming Taz through the ring. He held the ECW Television Championship and the ECW World Heavyweight Championship during his stay there.
On November 16, 1998 Bigelow debuted in World Championship Wrestling. He initially feuded with WCW World Heavyweight Champion Goldberg before competing in the WCW Hardcore Division
Bigelow held a total of 13 professional wrestling championships throughout his career, in promotions such as WCW, NWA, ECW, NJPW & IWGP.
On October 2, 2005, Bigelow was hospitalized with a broken nose and several lacerations after crashing his Harley-Davidson motorcycle in Spring Hill, Florida. His passenger at the time, Janis Remiesiewicz (Bigelow's girlfriend), suffered severe injuries and was declared to be in "critical" condition.
Both Remiesiewicz and her relationship with Bigelow, made a complete recovery.
Bigelow’s talent and warm personality made him a beloved figure to fans and wrestlers alike, Kocosports.com would like to send our deepest condolences to Miss Remiesiewicz & the rest of Bigelow’s family and friends during their time of grief.

i used to fucking love this guy...I totally remember the thing with LT |
|
nooooooooooooooooo were talking about him lastnight. |
|
i just remembered this oddly enough the other night i was trying to count how many famous wrestlers have died since i was a kid...theres a shit ton |
|
Me and Scott DS just realized he's dead, yet Sir Oliver Humperdink is still alive. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON AROUND HERE |
|
what this guy was cool.... its too bad. |
|
he did have some badass flames on his head. |
|
This 'badass' had his ass fucking kicked in when he tried to compete in an actual sport.
He fought Kimo in a MMA bout and got tooled like the fat schlub he was. |
|
And, his tattoo's were fucking gay. |
|
Way to speak ill of the dead. |
|
Man, that is harsh Kok
I liked him because he could do cartwheels at 400 lbs
He wished he could be Tank Abott |
|
I was being somewhat facetious about the tattoos. That guy was great in that old school WWF nintendo game. Tough to block the cartwheel. |
|
I wasn't thinking "gay" until yummy brought up the cartwheel. |
|
definitely going to be the worst news of 2007 |

he also was laid up in a hospital from burns when he saved 3 kids from a fire years ago. that makes him bad ass. |
|
Obviously I was wrong, he was a true hero. |
|
As all pro wrestlers are true heroes. |
|
brutus beefcake was a true hero a few years ago when a train station was evacuated over an anthrax scare, but fortunetly it was just beefcakes coke... many breathed a sigh of relief that day that it was just yayo.
or something. |
|
holy shit what is the life expectancy for pro wrestlers like 40 years? |
|
he deserves a shitload of credit. any fat man that can pull off a flame covered onesie is badass in my book. |
|
bam bam was the man
his spirit lives on in Tank Abbot |
|
This is fucking bullshit. RIP. |
|
Most wrestlers die from all the fucking meat in their heads. Bah, it sucks I guess.
|
|
hey any 400 pound dude that could pulloff a picture perfect dropkick get all sorts of credit from me, plus back about 2 years ago he got into a motorcycle accident ,he flew 150 feet, got up and picked up his bike and waited for the fucking cops to show up, now if that is not tuff i don't know what is. |
|
i was staying in kansas city misouri and the security guard at the hotel i was staying at was talking about tatoos with me, he told me did security for some event that bam bam was at and bam bam told him that when he got his head tatooed he had a headache for 2 weeks straight after. |
|
way to disrespect the dead you dick. |
|
he was my favorite wrestler to play as in a nintendo wwf game i had when i was a kid. |
