Former WWE Superstar Brian Christopher has passed away at 46 years old, according to multiple reports. Christopher was best known for his role as “Grandmaster Sexay” during the Attitude Era. Along with tag team partner Scotty 2 Hotty, the “Too Cool” – along with Rikishi – were one of the hottest acts during a wild time in WWE. He was also the son of WWE Hall Of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler. SEScoops extends our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Brian Christopher.
Christopher was arrested this past week in Memphis and charged with DUI and attempting to evade police. The 46-year-old was reportedly speeding and swerving around at 1 A.M. on July 7th. Cops attempted to pull Christopher over, but he refused. Police say Lawler told them he initially refused to pull over was because he was trying to get home.
One police pulled him over, they smelled alcohol in the vehicle and found an open container in the center console. Christopher was arrested immediately. He was booked on DUI and evading police. Bail was set at $40,000. Last month, Christopher was arrested for [allegedly] attempting to run out on a hotel bill in Memphis.

RIP Brian Christopher. I think I had every piece of Too Cool merch in 2000.

I only met Brian Christopher once, last year at an indy show in Kentucky. He was very friendly and just genuinely happy to be a part of the show, the life of the party. I almost left before introducing myself to him last minute. I'm glad I did. Rest in Peace Brother ?
