Shad Gaspard was swimming at the beach with his son yesterday. Then a riptide carried them away along with other swimmers. Lifeguards rushed to save them, but Gaspard reportedly told them to save his son first.

After a big wave crashed on him, the former WWE Superstar wasn’t seen again.

Waves of support poured Gaspard’s way throughout the pro wrestling world. This is a tragic situation and we can’t imagine the pain his family is experiencing.

Plenty of his co-workers and friends took to social media. Jordynne Grace put it best when she said: “Let’s all say it together: F * C K 2020.” We can only imagine she was referring to this awful story since she sent the tweet out soon after the news broke.
