R.I.P Chris Kaynyon

We’d been hoping to interview former WWE wrestler Chris Kaynyon for the past year or two but unfortunately it’s now too late. Kanyon committed suicide this past Friday night at his apartment in Queens, N.Y. Only 40 years old, Kanyon, whose real name was Christopher Klucsaritis, suffered from bipolar disorder. He came out of the closet in 2004, shocking the pro-wrestling devotees who never dreamed, or at least, never hoped that one of the oily muscled men in speedos in front of them would turn out to be a fag. Kanyon continued to wrestle, incorporating elements of his homosexuality into his performances.
