He only remained a part of the World Championship Wrestling organization for a little over two years, but was left with severe back problems.Then self-employed as a personal trainer, and uninsured, Tatum relied on painkillers to deal with his ailments.
At the time of his death, he was recovering from back surgery to repair a degenerative disc and injuries sustained while wrestling.
“He was in the process of getting his life back together,” Roy Tatum told the Atlanta-Journal Constitution on Monday (Mar 24). “He was confident he was going to turn things around, to live a normal life again without the painkillers.”
The Fulton County Medical Examiner has ordered a toxicology report and should know the exact cause of Chase Tatum’s death in about six to eight weeks.
