October 14, 20222 yr comment_5992483 His Observer obit notes that New Japan wouldn't clear him to return due to heart issues, which they believed were steroid-related. He had also been banned from amateur wrestling for testing positive for steroids, which he claimed was due to a tainted supplement. Sadly, it looks like the obvious explanation is the likeliest one. 36 is way too young.
