British wrestling star Kurtis Chapman, better known by his stage name Mad Kurt, is dead. The Revolution Pro Wrestling Association announced this on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Chapman was only 26 years old. Those responsible said they were “absolutely heartbroken” about this news. We witnessed how the athlete grew and developed from a child into a young man. He was one of the most technically gifted wrestlers and very charismatic. Mad Kurt had a “magnetic personality”. However, there was no comment on the cause of death.
Chapman began wrestling as a teenager and earned a reputation beyond England’s borders due to his unconventional and fresh style. After numerous triumphs, the professional athlete has not been in the ring since June 2023. At that time he successfully defended the Resurgence Arthouse title in Leicester, England.
Mad Kurt was also known for his unusual stature as a wrestler. The athlete, who was only 1.63 meters tall, weighed only 60 kilograms and therefore always visually entered the ring as an obviously inferior fighter. However, he overcame this physical disadvantage through cunning and technique during fights and thus won the hearts of numerous wrestling fans around the world.
