PWO poster "rovert" has apparently passed away (can anyone confirm?)

[C.S.]

I found out from a Reddit thread, which I won't link to here, because the comments are...not nice.

This is apparently his obit:

I just checked rovert's PWO profile, and he hasn't posted here since 2023.

I won't pretend I was close with him or anything like that, but I'm sure we had occasional interactions in threads.

R.I.P. and my condolences to anyone here who was friendly with rovert.

He was certainly a polarizing figure in the community to put it lightly.

Personally I didn't mind following him Twitter. Call it a guilty pleasure but the guy was always online that he covered just about everything that was going on in Pro Wrestling it was an easy way to stay informed. The guy clearly enjoyed trolling and while I apparantly missed a lot of his more unhinged moments you knew what to expect.

RIP rovert.

I feel like that never really happened on PWO, or it happened before I joined.

Is (was?) this forum simply more well moderated?

I'll miss someone spending, presumably, way too much of their free time trying to be the Hedda Hopper of pro wrestling on the internet.

I did laugh when he lifted a couple of jokes I made on here for his twitter feed.
