In Memory – Todd Wimbleton

In May 2000, ECW ran a house show in Duluth, Georgia. The opening match saw Chilly Willy defeat Todd Wimbleton; and it Todd’s only match in ECW:

We just found a March 2024 Georgia wrestling-dedicated blog which posted that he passed away some time prior to that post:

The post reads:

Last week, after Flowers was released and being shared, I got a text message from Steve Stussey letting me know Todd Wilmbleton had passed away. Todd was part of the last two Flowers I wrote because he was woven within the fabric of those stories. I don’t think enough could ever be written about Todd because he was an amazing guy. His influence was far-reaching and those of us who were fortunate enough to work with him are better today because of him. Godspeed Todd Wimbleton. 

If accurate, then we offer our belated condolences to his loved ones, friends, and colleagues in the pro wrestling industry.

Todd also appeared at the very beginning of a 1999 ECW show in Atlanta which saw him confront Sabu and Bill Alfonso. The following video clip is from Todd’s YouTube channel where he appeared at the beginning with “Murder One”:

Another video from his YouTube channel shows him being attacked at another ECW show, apparently in Atlanta at some time in 2000, again confronting Sabu and Fonzie.

Some of his archived website pages from that time (mid-2000) can be found on the Wayback/Archive.org at this link: Todd Wimbleton website page

As with many websites from that time, not all pages are archived nor are all words/images on a particular page archived either.
