It is with great sadness that we report Nelson Frazier Jr., Big Daddy V, has passed away at the young age of 42. The sad news was reported first by Wrestling Inc.

There is still investigation underway as to what caused his death, but it isn’t the first time a very young professional wrestler has passed away very unexpectedly. Umaga in 2009 after he suffered a heart attack at the age of 36,  Macho Man Randy Savage died at the age of 58 after suffering a sudden heart attack, and the list goes on and on for pro wrestlers after their careers come to and end.

Big Daddy V, at the moment, is very sudden. Only weeks prior to tonight’s very sad news, he tweeted about the Royal Rumble, explaining his excitement for the event.
@NelsonFrazierJr: This Royal Rumble is going to be awesome because someone is making a surpise return….. VVVVVVV
Brand new information has just come in about Frazier Jr.’s death. Justin Labar of WrestleZone has received information stating that Viscera’s death is being linked to a sudden heart attack. Although this is not confirmed, it would make logical sense to Frazier’s large size and past in wrestling.
Other names in wrestling are tuning in and paying their respects to the former 1995 King of the Ring winner on Twitter.

@JakeSnakeDDT: I hope it is not true. Nelson Frazier (Mabel/BigDaddyV) was as nice & kind as they come. My thoughts to his family. One of the good ones.
@Sheltyb803 (Shelton Benjamin): Just found out & crushed by the passing of BigDaddyV/Vicera R.I.P. my friend.
@JrsBBQ: Nelson Frazier, Jr passed away today at age of 42 apparently of a heart attack. He was Viscera, Big Daddy V & Mabel in @WWE RIP Big Fella
@TheCurtHawkins: RIP BigDaddyV. He was always so friendly to @ZackRyder & I when we first started on the full time @wwe roster. I’ll never forget that.
