Former TNA star Joe Doering passed away yesterday at the age
of 44 after a lengthy battle with brain cancer. He was just
recently moved to hospice care.
Doering had brain cancer three times over the past several
years and it’s the reason he had to stop wrestling in 2022.
“We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Joe Doering,”
TNA wrote. “A commanding in-ring performer and a wonderful
person, he will never be forgotten. We offer our deepest
condolences to his fans, his friends and his family.”
AEW also offered its condolences even though he was never
part of the promotion.
“AEW and the wrestling world mourn the passing of Joe
Doering. Our deepest sympathies go out to his family,
friends and fans during this difficult time,” the company
wrote on X.
Several of his former colleagues, including Josh Alexander,
Adam Pearce, Gail Kim, Lance Archer, Frankie Kazarian, and
many more paid tribute to Doering on social media.
Apart from a long stint in TNA, Doering also wrestled for
All Japan Pro Wrestling.
