– In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the circumstances surrounding the death of Bushwhacker Butch Miller was discussed. Sadly, Miller passed away after he forgot to pack one of his high blood pressure medications and the long flight from New Zealand to Los Angeles exacerbated the situation, causing him to go four days without taking his pills.
– Miller was in his hotel room for a private signing on 3/30 but noted that he didn’t feel well so medical personnel were rushed and he was taken via ambulance to hospital. The belief at that time was that he would be okay and even be able to do an autograph signing on 4/2. His former tag team partner Luke suggested that Butch’s excitement over the autograph signings was probably the reason he forgot to pack his meds.
