Former WWE manager and wrestler Jean “Frenchy Martin” Gagne passed away this morning after a battle with cancer, according to PWInsider. He was 66 years old.

“I led an extraordinary life,” Martin told The Montreal Journal last month.  “I am proud to have succeeded in the world of wrestling. I am no more worthy than another, but I’m not afraid of death. I accept the result. ”

 Martin had long runs in Stampede and Puerto Rico before coming to the WWF in the 1980s, where he wrestled, did commentary, hosted an interview segment for international broadcasts and managed the late Dino Bravo among others. He was known for his trademark sign that read “USA is not OK”

The World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico dedicated their Anniversario events over the weekend to Martin.

On behalf of everyone here at Wrestling News Blog, we’d like to send our deepest condolences to Martin’s family, friends and fans.

Bubba Ray Dudley Continues To Tease A WWE Return

Former WWE Superstar Bubba Ray Dudley continues to tease a return to the company.

The Dudley Boyz bid farewell to the WWE Universe on RAW back in August, the night after SummerSlam. The two were laid out by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, leading many to believe their departure was a storyline to set up a feud between the two teams. Since then, Bubba has been working independent dates while D-von is now working as a producer backstage. Over the past week, Bubba Ray sent out several tweets indicating he is getting the itch to step back in a WWE ring.

In response to a fan who said he misses the Dudley Boyz on Monday nights, Bubba Ray responded:

Another fan told Bubba that if he does return to WWE – he should make a comeback as Bully Ray.

Finally, Bubba was asked if he’d rather challenge for Kevin Owens’ Universal Championship or AJ Styles’ WWE World Championship. He joked that Kevin Owens’ title would probably fit him better, as the two are closer in body stature, but he’s certainly getting his followers’ hopes up regarding a potential return.

More From Mick Foley On WWE Hell In A Cell Main Event

As noted, RAW General Manager Mick Foley edited his Facebook announcement on Charlotte vs. RAW Women’s Champion Sasha Banks being the main event of the October 30th Hell In a Cell pay-per-view, now saying the match will be “a main event” and that he doesn’t know what the official main event will be yet. Foley elaborated in the comments section of the Facebook post, seen here:

“The match order for #HIAC Will probably not be finalized until hours before the actual show, so each member of the WWE Universe can decide for themselves what their main event is. Regardless of where the women’s match is placed on the card, both Sasha and Charlotte should absolutely feel like they are the main event – as should Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins. It’s a competitive business, and that competitive spirit should bring out the best in everyone on October 30th.”

Mick Foley Reveals Which Cell Match Will Main Event WWE Hell In A Cell

WWE RAW General Manager Mick Foley took to Facebook and announced that Charlotte vs. RAW Women’s Champion Sasha Banks will main event the October 30th Hell In a Cell pay-per-view.

Foley posted the following on Facebook:

CHILLS
Forget for a moment about Stephanie McMahon’s jumping high-five or my awkward attempt to hug the #RAW Comissioner. The biggest moment of the night for us came when the #WWE cameras were off, and Stephanie and I just looked at the #HIAC poster, realizing that for #WomensWrestling, history is upon us – as Sasha Banks and Charlotte will main event the #HIAC PPV. I am so happy for Sasha, for Charlotte, for all the women who paved the way, and all those who aspire to follow in their footsteps. It is no exaggeration to say that looking at that poster gave me chills…and they were multiplying.
