This list includes deceased wrestling managers, valets, referees, broadcasters, promoters, writers, and wrestling historians, all of which deserve a mention for their contributions to the wrestling world from outside the ring.
Note that some of these guys and gals may have taken a few bumps, or even had a short career as a wrestler (including gimmick matches), but if they are most commonly linked to a role outside the ring, they’re included on this page, and not our deceased wrestlers page.

Disclaimer:
“Natural causes” was only used to describe a cause of death when it’s the only information that I could source. It should be taken into account that causes of death such as heart attacks and cancer are of course also technically “natural causes”, as-is any ailment that is not considered unnatural (unnatural would be circumstances including suicide, drug overdoses, etc).
