Danny Havoc verstorben

Wie aus diversen Social Media Kanälen zu entnehmen ist, verstarb Ultraviolent Wrestler Danny Havoc gestern im Alter von 34 Jahren. Die Todesursache ist noch nicht öffentlich.

Er wird vorallem den Fans von Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW), IWA Deep South, oder Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) durch seine Deathmatches der vergangenen 15 Jahre in Erinnerung bleiben. Aber auch in Deutschland machte er sich, bei westside Xtreme wrestling (wXw), einen Namen.

Havoc gewann u.a. das CZW’s Tournament of Death (2008 & 2013), GCW’s Tournament of Survival (2016), die CZW Ultraviolent Underground Championship (2x), Tag Team Championship (2x), Junior Heavyweight Championship (1x) und einige weitere Titel diverser anderer Promotions.

Im September 2017 zog er sich, bedingt durch verschiedene Verletzungen, nach seiner Niederlage bei CZW (gegen Alex Colon), aus dem Wrestling zurück und beendete seine Karriere. Wie so oft im Wrestling ließ eine Rückkehr jedoch nicht lange auf sich warten. Am 06.10.2019 kehrte er für ein Charity Event zu Gunsten von Deathmatch Wrestler G-Raver, initiiert von Kollege Matt Tremont, in den Ring zurück. Ab dem Punkt arbeitete Havoc noch 6 Matches (ausschließlich für GCW).

Grant Berkland, so sein bürgerlicher Namen, heiratete 2018 Brianne Morrow. Diese verstarb am 04.04.2020 im Alter von nur 27 Jahren, in Folge eines Herzfehlers.

Danny Havoc verfasste damals ein paar Worte und ließ diese über einen Freund veröffentlichen:

Like those that passed before him, his legacy is secured by the memories that he bestowed upon us both as a wrestler and as a friend.

He will not be forgotten.

Rest in Peace, Grant ❤

Rest in Peace, Danny Havoc.

Danny has been with us for five weekenders from 2008 – 2011 and has been part of our Japan tour in 2012 as well.

We have learned today's news with a heavy heart.

WWE Superstar & Freund Drew Gulak:

I put an old Viking proverb on a card to a friend along with a present earlier this week hoping that it would cheer him up. I was not expecting to get the horrible news that I received earlier today that Grant Berkland, aka Daniel T. Havoc had passed away.

IMPACT Wrestling Superstar & Freund Sami Callihan:

Absolutely heartbroken.

I wouldn’t be who I am today without Danny Havoc.

Absolute genius who never got the credit he deserved.

Im beyond privileged to been able to travel the world with him.

Reach out to your loved one. Life is so short.

Love you Grant.

Danny was one of the nicest, most genuine guys I’ve ever met. Him sharing a bottle of Jim Beam with me on a random German train a decade ago after my mum had a heart attack because he wanted to look after me will stick with me forever. He will be missed. https://t.co/nH3MDLFN6p

10 years ago today I came home after my last Death Match—and a night at the hospital. pic.twitter.com/cJX48ZBNhH
