Today, the wrestling world mourns the loss of a true trailblazer. Charlie Norris, the former WCW star and champion for justice, has passed away at the age of 57.
The Cauliflower Alley Club broke the news, sending shockwaves through the community. Norris’ legacy lives on, not only for his in-ring accomplishments, but for his bravery in speaking out against the injustices he faced.
After leaving the bright lights of the wrestling world behind in 2001, Norris settled into a more modest life on the Red Lake Indian Reservation in Northwestern Minnesota. There, he dedicated himself to serving his community, working as a personal trainer and helping others to achieve their fitness goals.
