Indy Wrestler J.C. Bailey Found Dead At 27

Sadly we’ve got another death from the wrestling world to report.

Independent wrestler J.C. Bailey (real name Joseph Carl Bailey, Jr.) was found dead this morning at the age of 27. The cause of death is currently unknown. Bailey was known for his high-flying, hardcore style and wrestled for various hardcore indy wrestling promotions, most notably the Philadelphia-based Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW).

CZW issued a statement this morning after the news came out on Bailey’s death:

It is with great sadness that CZW management has the unfortunate duty to again report on the news of the passing of another one of its own. Early this morning, CZW officials learned that Joseph Carl “JC” Bailey Jr. passed away in his home at the age of 27. JC was a beloved member of the CZW locker room, and a member of the extended Combat Zone family for nearly a decade. As a performer, JC was fearless. He was renowned and admired by fans and colleagues alike for his toughness, his resilience, and for the undying passion he showed for the sport of Professional Wrestling… the sport he loved. Away from the ring, JC was a true friend to so many people, and today, we all remember him, and mourn his loss. Rest in Peace JC Bailey.

We’d like to express our sincere condolences to the familiy and friends of the late Joseph Carl Bailey, Jr.
